Thought: Questions about the upcoming “24” movie…

After the announcement of the “24” movie officially happening, there are some questions that needs answers for the upcoming film.

Here they are:

  • How is the film going to be shot in real time? – I don’t think this will be a 24 hour long movie. It’ll probably be about 2 or 3 hours. Will they split the movie in different sequels? It’s going to be interesting how they’re going to pull this off.
  • Will the original cast return? Will everyone from the TV show comeback, all the characters? Tony, Chloe, Bill, Edgar, Kim, etc. I’m sure we’re going to see some familiar faces. David Palmer and Michelle can’t comeback ’cause they were killed off in Season 5.
  • Will there be a lot of split screens? “24” is known for it’s split screens throughout the show, I’m sure the movie will do the same, but with this being Hollywood, I’m sure they will do the split screens much differently.
  • What is the plot? How will the action be? – The film needs to have a really good plot if they want people to care about “24”, again. The show is also known for being violent and having lots of action. I’m sure the movie will be the same. Again, with this being Hollywood, this is an opportunity for the film to be even more violent than the TV show. I’m hoping it won’t be PG-13 rated and it will get a hard R rating.
  • Will they pick a big name star or an unknown actor for the film’s leading villain? – Most of the 24 villains from the TV shows have been unknown actors, but I think they should go for a big name for this one.

That’s pretty much it. Once the film hires a director, they’ll get right to work on the casting next. It’s going to be interesting on how they’re going to pull the “24” movie off. I hope they do it right.

I started watching Season 5 last night. I had enough with WWE RAW, so I skipped it and watched “24” on Netflix instead.
