McRaney will play “Henry Donovan, the father of presidential candidate John Donovan (Jimmy Smits). A powerful oil man and passionately devoted father, Henry is dedicated to putting his son in the White House, no matter what the obstacles.”

What do you think? Are you a fan of the original 24 series? Will you watch the reboot?
The casting of Gerald McRaney as John Donovan’s father in 24: Legacy is great.
24 will not be the same without the original cast. They left the last series with Tony coming back then it was done and now a new 24 comes with a new cast.
I know right now it will suck
