24 (Jack Bauer TV series)

[Innermind]

24 new FOX series without Jack Bauer

 

[Innermind]

Well... Star Trek managed to thrive throughout the decades with new shows & new casts, so perhaps this might work.

We shall see.

Scary. I'll watch, but I don't get it.

I had a great plot I thought with Jack on death row in a Russian prison during a Russian presidential election... with the death penalty being the major campaign difference... with an assassination plot in the mix, of which a CIA team is trying to stop while trying to get Jack out. Lots of options in that plot. Chloe, Kate, Cole, Jim, Arlo, heck even Chase Edmunds as the station chief. Belcheck and Tony in the field.... lots of options.

I was disappointed in the half season 9, while loving it. They had an easy second half plot with Kate's story, but they cut it short.

But I'll take anything 24 if the acting remains very good.

 

[TKOSpikes]

Not happy... but I'll take it.

 

[Wazmankg]

I'll check it out. But it's not 24 without Jack Bauer.

 

[night]

I'll give it a shot. As long as the story is interesting it could be good.

24 new FOX series without Jack Bauer

Damnit... I searched and nothing. My bad

 

[night]

I like the idea since I like 24 but why does every show get remaked and change the character?

Sutherland is probably a little more expensive these days than he used to be.

probably but isnt he a producer?

probably but isnt he a producer?

That's what I've heard. The heavily sought after actors command a pretty big salary and he may not permanently be on the project.

sadly. Like Bradley Cooper on Limitless most likely.

I'm really surprised that Sutherland came back for day 9.

They gave him a lot of special rights to the revenue was my understanding.

 

[Innermind]

It needs to get past the pilot stage first... the network might not like the pilot, and continued production might not be approved... so, we might never see this.

We shall see.

S8 had a blah ending but it was always with the intention of a movie for closure which made it fine. Instead they did a whole knew season which was mostly awesome. But once again ended it require more. And they are doing a spin off? Bullshit.

They also did the Solitary DVD tease of Tony breaking out.

We need S10 wth the Cavalry going to get Jack. Not new show!!!

FOX is planning a new 24 series titled 24: Legacy... but... it will have a new set of characters and actors (no Jack Bauer, no Kiefer Sutherland).
Without Jack Bauer, can it really be 24?

Why not?

 

[Innermind]

The lead role on 24: Legacy will be played by Corey Hawkins... Hawkins portrays Heath on AMC's The Walking Dead. The character's name will be Eric Carter.
Straight Outta Compton's Corey Hawkins will star in the 24 reboot












The leading lady on 24: Legacy will be Miranda Otto. Otto portrayed Eowyn the Shieldmaiden of Rohan in the Lord of the Rings films.

[TKOSpikes]

She was also on Homeland.

I hope it isn't a mistake using actors from widely known shows.

Scary, but again.... I'll take it!

Jack Bauer is 24. Don't know how they can really continue the series without him.

 

[Comeds]

I think its a good move. I do not mean the casting of those two actors, though they seem fine, but going a season or so without Sutherland. If it goes horribly they can rescue Jack in the following season and have the new leads die in the process. Only thing I would have done is have Yvonne Strahovski's character as one of the main agents.

After watching the last installment of 24, I thought that if they were going to do any other storyline that didn't include Jack Bauer, it would have been one that included Kate Morgan (Yvonne Strahovski's character) and some of her associates. That's something that would have made better sense, as opposed to introducing all-new leads that on the surface seem to have no connection (none that we're aware of) to the original series. Anything is possible, I suppose.
