24 fans still have a chance. Recently, FOX boss Michael Thorn spoke with Deadline about the possibility of another revival for the TV show.
Originally, 24 starred Kiefer Sutherland as Jack Bauer, a counter-terrorism agent. The show ran on FOX for eight seasons before ending in 2010. Since, the show has been revived for two specials, Redemption (2008) and the limited series Live Another Day (2014). In 2015, FOX debuted a spinoff series, 24: Legacy, but the show was cancelled after one season.
During this year’s summer TCA press conference, Thorn revealed FOX is still in the early stages of another 24 revival:
There is nothing formal yet; we are still having discussions with 20th Century Fox TV and the producers on a way to come up with some other incarnation. There is a really strong desire to crack it, we are still talking about it.”
He continued:
However we build the franchise, it has got to feel big, eventized and all the creators and producers involved have to feel really excited about that direction and that we all feel we’ve got the right script.”
What do you think? Are you a fan of 24? Would you watch a revival?
Would love to see more of Kiefer!!
Yes!
Please don’t. So many reasons not too. Instead of constantly reviving and remaking shows and movies, can someone step up and be original and start creating new masterpieces? I was satisfied with the way my favorite show (finally) ended. Let it (and Jack) rest.
Didn’t watch this show when it was originally on TV, but watched all 8 seasons in the last few months. I just watched the final episode 2 nights ago, and was devastated to learn that there wasn’t a Season 9. It was truly one of the best shows I’ve ever seen, and Kiefer Sutherland was amazing as Jack Bauer! I would love to see it come back, but I can’t imagine anybody else being as good in that role as Kiefer. He would absolutely have to be in it!
I would watch it again and I am a huge 24 fan. Just don’t replace Jack with some other character or try another spin off. Pay Keifer what he would want to play Jack Bauer again.
24 but only if Sutherland comes back.
I miss Jack’s “DAMN IT”. Honestly, there’s no 24 without Kiefer as Jack. Please bring it back and have him escape Russia. Also, enough with the PC BS, let’s get him back to his dark and torturous methods. This is what made the show stand above the others, a man doing the unthinkable in order to get the job done.
Absolutely would watch, love 24 , but it has to be Keifer and no one else . Truly hope this happens
would love to have it back but Kiefer has to be it
Of course I would watch!!! I watched all of the first ones. I also didn’t like the fact that they canceled designated survivor. I like that show as well.
YES Loved the Show!!!
Yes to 24…the ending of the last revival did not give final closure. We are left hanging. Kiefer, you are not too old.
And there is always the grandson becoming the new Jack in abour 10 years real time.
Loved this one-of-a-kind show! Only Keifer Sutherland will do!
LOVE. THIS. ALL TIME PROGRAM. THE BEST.
Jack was and still is my favorite TV character. But 24 Legacy was good. I just think people didn’t want a Black lead actor for the 24 series. Same thing is happening with 007 now.
Yes, I definitely would love it to come back but only with Kiefer Sutherland
