Joe Exotic reportedly has a limousine waiting for him outside of his Texas prison in the event that he is granted a Presidential pardon by Donald Trump.
The Tiger King star is hopeful that his 22-year jail term will be vanquished by Trump as one of his final acts in office.
Having been soundly defeated by Joe Biden in November's election, Trump is now entering the final 24 hours of his presidency and is expected to award at least 100 pardons before he leaves the White House.
Exotic gained global fame last year due to the hit Netflix series and has been badgering Trump's team to look at evidence relating to his incarceration for crimes including animal cruelty and a plan to murder his rival Carole Baskin.
Eric Love, who is part of Exotic's legal team, has told The Sun that they are confident that his release is imminent and have developed a strategy for his reintegration into society.
"We have the limousine fuelled up and driver standing by," said Love. "We went over [his release plan] and did a walk-through on it a while ago. We are good to go and we anticipate the car between 10am and 2pm... we are ready for the party."
He continued: "We call it the Exit Plan, initiated by me. Once we're notified, whether it's by television or phone, we will execute a plan.
"Team Tiger has a helicopter on standby, we have a remote ranch that no one knows the location except Team Tiger lead council and myself.
"The first thing that will happen: Joe will be taken off site and then placed in a helicopter with myself and a security team and an additional helicopter, we are going to go to a remote ranch, that's remote to Fort Worth.
"We will go there for 48 hours of decompression. It is important. We want to make sure that he is loved, appreciated, catered to, but most importantly, he needs about 48 hours is what I've kind of dialled in on a decompression."
Love added that Exotic has requested that he has a hair and beauty makeover from a stylist before being reunited with his husband Dillon Passage.
