Jack’s back this Sun day night – if only for a few minutes.
That’s when Fox will give viewers a sneak peek of the two-hour “24” prequel, “Redemption,” airing in November as a lead-in to Season Seven (premiering in January).
The roughly-three-minute preview, airing Sunday between 8-8:30 p.m., will feature clips from “Redemption,” which finds hero CTU agent Jack Bauer (Kiefer Sutherland) in Africa – battling yet another international crisis – while a new president is about to be inaugurated back home in the US.
“Redemption,” which airs in full Nov. 23, takes place just a few months before “Day 7″ – so Jack will be in the belly of the beast once the new season starts.Jon Voight, Robert Carlyle, Gil Bellows and Cherry Jones join the “24″ cast this season.
Fox’s Sunday night schedule also includes an extended scene from the movie, “The Day The Earth Stood Still” – airing at 8 p.m. – followed by the “24″ sneak-peek and a repeat of the “Fringe” series premiere. –
