24 Movie Won’t Happen Until The Series Ends
This is probably a smart move. Kiefer Sutherland says the 24 movie isn’t going to come out until after the series ends.
Kiefer Sutherland says a 24 movie won’t happen until the TV series has run its course.
"We are so focused on the (TV) show right now, I couldn’t even imagine that any of the writers have even thought about any of that," said Sutherland of the oft-rumoured 24 film.
"I think we collectively have agreed that will be the first thing we would do when we finish the show."
Meanwhile, this summer Sutherland was in Romania filming a movie called Mirrors.
Other snippets of 24 information, courtesy of Sutherland:
* The supposed time elapsed between season six and season seven is going to be months, not years. "In all fairness, they haven’t put an absolute time down, but I just know it’s not going to be four years or three years. The jump between season five and season six was quite large, and I think they’re conscious of the aging thing."
* The new season is going to start in the morning again. "That’s as much a production issue as anything else. We shoot in the summer when it’s daytime and we get longer days, and we shoot night scenes in the winter when we have longer nights."
* Sutherland is a big fan of 24’s regular influx of new characters, but the one constant always will be Chloe, played by Mary Lynn Rajskub. "Yes, she will be back."
* Sutherland is thrilled about the addition of a female president, who will be played by Cherry Jones. "I was really proud of the very first season having the first African American president on television. This obviously won’t be the first woman president (on TV), but it certainly is a political reality (in the United States) and a possibility."

I remember that the X-files movie was delayed several times and there were many rumours about it and now, finally, thanksfully, five years after the show ended, they have a script and will make their second movie. I hope that this movie for 24 will be up sooner than 5 years after the show’s last season.
