Teddy Sears who played CTU Director Keith Mullins in 24: Legacy’s first season was a celebrity guest at Planet Comicon Kansas City this weekend, and he reportedly told a fan that he has no plans on returning for a potential second season.
Former The Flash actor Teddy Sears has expressed an interest in returning to the show in a slightly different role.
According to ComicBook.com reader Michael Leslie who was in attendance at Planet Comiccon Kansas City, Sears says has no plans following his turn on 24: Legacy this season and has told The Flash team that he’d like to return to play Hunter Zolomon of Earth One.
24: Legacy has yet to be renewed for a second season and FOX isn’t expected to make an official announcement until May 15th.
It’s possible the cast and crew have been notified early and given the heads up to begin searching for new jobs. Or maybe the writers chose to go in a different direction for a potential second season and will not be needing his character.
Whatever the case, it appears that we’ve probably seen the last of Keith Mullins.

May 1, 2017 at 7:27 amSomething along those lines, maybe.
But more likely, they’ll quietly ignore 24 Legacy’s existence and just release a brief statement of which of their other shows have been renewed.

May 1, 2017 at 4:36 pmI would think he’d have “plans” to return (as in a clear schedule) until told otherwise.
And I don’t think he would’ve contacted his former employer about returning to his old gig unless he knew that he’d actually be available. Reaching out to The Flash team also seems a little bit more specific than the typical “I had a blast on that show and would love to return someday” answer that actors usually give.
But who knows, it’s not really clear.

May 1, 2017 at 9:45 pmI can’t recall a season of 24 where the CTU director was the CTU director in another season. (Bill Buchanan comes to mind as a possible exception)
So posting a news story like this is like saying the lady who was playing Erin Driscoll wasn’t returning to 24 for season 5.

May 2, 2017 at 12:48 amThis evening, TV Series Finale sent out a tweet that 24 Legacy has been cancelled by Fox. A few minutes later, they said that the tweet was sent out “accidentally” and should not have been sent because they are still working on the wording of the tweet.
Stay tuned.
