Escape Plan Movies: Release Order
The Escape Plan trilogy is an action series starring Sylvester Stallone as Ray Breslin, a security analyst who specializes in breaking out of maximum-security prisons. The films follow a clear chronological progression with each entry following the previous film's events and expanding Breslin's world and team.
The series begins with the acclaimed pairing of Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger in the original film, then evolves into a more ensemble-focused approach in the sequels with new team members like Dave Bautista. While the cast changes between films, the continuity remains intact with no reboots or timeline resets - simply Breslin's continuing adventures in high-tech prison security.
