Report: Kiefer Sutherlund in negotiations to return to “24” but as mini-series???

Sometimes you gotta feel bad for Kiefer. Kiefer tries to do other projects besides, “24”, but when he tries other things (like other TV shows, movie roles, etc.) he is not successful. It seems he only gets success with, “24”. FOX is cancelling his show, “Touch”, after two seasons, so they are immediately looking for more work for Kiefer. It’s no surprise they are thinking about bringing “24” back to the small screen. I loved “24”. Saw every episode back-to-back, watched every season on Netflix a long while back. “24” is awesome. What’s going on with the big screen “24” movie they’ve been planning for years? Is that still happening or is that the project being turned into a TV movie instead? Either way, as long as Jack Bauer is coming back, that makes me happy.

It’s amazing to me how Kiefer doesn’t get tired of playing that character. He spent a lot of years playing that character. So I don’t think he’s completely done with Jack Bauer anytime soon. He is a badass character. For the new series they are planning, it’s not going to leave off from where the earlier seasons ended. They are starting it from scratch, in other words, a re-boot? So I don’t think we’re gonna see any of the other characters from the earlier seasons return at all, just Jack Bauer alone with completely new characters. I’m completely okay with that, ’cause like I said, Jack Bauer fuckin’ rules! Love the show, and I’ll welcome a comeback!

Deadline reports.
