Kiefer Sutherland has spoke more about the upcoming 24 film, saying that although it’s not a sure thing they’ll be able to film it within the small window of time available, he is “very confident” and “excited” about the circumstances. It looks like they are getting closer to hiring a director too: “We have a couple directors, specifically one who I don’t want to say his name just yet,” says Kiefer.
As for the plot, Kiefer explains that it’s more about saving himself than saving the world. “[Jack Bauer] is hiding in Eastern Europe and his cover is blown. All of a sudden, everybody from aspects of the CIA, to certain groups in the Middle East, to the Chinese – everybody he’s basically made angry throughout the television show wants to kill him. And he has to figure out how they found him, and he has to survive. That’s the general gist of what we are thinking of making.”
What do you think of this storyline? (Thanks to 24heureschrono for the heads up!)

March 14, 2012 at 10:23 pmI’m also very curious to see how the film *ends*, as much as I’d like Jack to find peace it wouldn’t be very fitting for him to walk out into the sunset.
