Jaime King has been roped in to star along side Sylvester Stallone in 'Escape Plan 3'. The actor is returning to Lionsgate's 'Escape Plan' action series, joining the cast of the third installment, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

King will reprise the role of the franchise's female lead, a woman named Abigail Ross, who is kidnapped and held in an (almost) impenetrable prison facility.

WWE wrestler-turned-actor Dave Bautista is also back in the thriller, which is co-written and being directed by John Herzfeld. Production began earlier this week.
