“24” Getting New Lead Character

We haven’t seen the last of “24”, not by a long shot.

Per TV Line, executive producer Howard Gordon reveals that the 24 spinoff will revolve around “a new twentysomething male terrorist hunter.” However, Bauer won’t be entirely left out of the proceedings, as Gordon noted that Kiefer Sutherland would weave in and out as a guest star.

This new lead antihero character will be teamed up alongside an older, more seasoned female agent in the spinoff, which will first launch as a miniseries then could go on to become a long-term show if the numbers are solid. Yvonne Strahovski’s Kate Morgan from Live Another Day may also make an appearance, but she won’t be the aforementioned co-star. Manny Coto and Evan Catz, who spearheaded 24: Live Another Day, are writing and executive producing this new spinoff series.
