24 writer and executive producer David Fury confirmed to a fan on Twitter that the upcoming miniseries 24: Live Another Day will take place entirely in London.
There has been some confusion by fans when Kiefer Sutherland said “If Jack Bauer needs to get on a plane to go from London to Germany, you don’t have to watch that,” in a recent interview with Access Hollywood. But it looks like that was just an example rather than an actual plot point.
Fury also claims that another season is possible if the ratings are good – and obviously it would have a different subtitle.
“@BryanOringher: is the plan for multiple seasons of LAD? If ratings are up. Different subtitle. How much of this season is in London?” All.

January 30, 2014 at 3:23 amAnything else they’d like to go back on? What the hell ever happened to all the “this new format allows Jack to travel around” hype?

January 30, 2014 at 1:08 pmHmmm… Don’t know what to think about the fact that the whole Season is taking place in London. I mean with what are they skipping 12 hours of time? Obviously it’S not gonna be flying to somewhere. But I can’t imagine he’s driving around for 12h either. So what could happen in the 12 hours they skip? Maybe eating & drinking, going to the frggin toilette… Any other ideas?

January 30, 2014 at 8:22 pmMost of Washington DC in Season 7 was faked as well (they only filmed 8 episodes there, the rest in Los Angeles) and all of NY in Season 8 was faked too.
So it’s certainly possible for them to fake a different location while filming entirely in London. Whether they actually do that or not remains to be seen though.

January 31, 2014 at 11:40 pmI used to be a frequent contributor there during season 7, thinking of returning when Live Another Day starts back up.

February 1, 2014 at 12:52 pmMy biggest contribution was probably the “Audio Commentary” page which became so large it was split into several subpages. I don’t think I ever got around to doing the Season 4 commentaries though, so that’s something I definitely want to finish one of these days.

February 2, 2014 at 10:39 amAt the very least I’ll return to finish up the commentary stuff I was doing. There’s some interesting details revealed on those, but probably only a tiny fraction of people ever listen to them.
