Kiefer Sutherland, who plays Jack Bauer on Fox drama 24, made an appearance at Comic-Con in San Diego Friday, reports TMZ. He discussed the future of the show, which takes place in real time.
“I don’t know with regards to ‘the last season’ or anything, I really don’t,” Sutherland told reports after the 24 panel Friday. It is the last season that I’ve been contracted to do 24, but I really don’t know. We’re so focused on making season eight. But obviously the requirements would be that the writers felt that they could really bang it out. If Howard [Gordon] came to me and said, ‘The way I saw those last scenes play, I have an idea for season nine that would be unbelievable,” I would have to listen to him for that. I think we’re all very aware of wanting to protect what we believe is a very strong and important legacy that is 24. All of those things. Again, the choices to do or not to do it have nothing to do with my contract, have everything to do with whether or not an audience still wants to watch it and cares and whether or not we feel we have something to offer.”

Elisha Cuthbert has signed on to reprise her role as Jack Bauer’s daughter on the new season of 24.
According to TV Guide’s Ask Ausiello, Cuthbert’s character Kim will have a child. However, Kim’s ex-boyfriend, played by C. Thomas Howell, will not return.
Cuthbert will next be seen on the big screen in “The Six Wives of Henry Lefay,” where she will play a grieving daughter who must deal with her deceased father’s ex-wives.
Kiefer Sutherland might wed girlfriend Siobhan Bonnouvrier, reports Perez Hilton.
If the rumours are true, this marriage will not be the first for the “24” star, but the third nuptials for the actor.
Sutherland was first married to Camelia Kath in 1987, with whom he has a daughter. The couple divorced three years later. In 1996, Sutherland married Kelly Winn but the pair separated in 1999 and filed for divorce in 2004.
According to Perez, a friend of Sutherland says: “Now that Kiefer is finally divorced, everyone is hoping he will marry Siobhan. Kiefer is a changed man and Siobhan is just the right woman for him. She is an amazing woman and has transformed Kiefer in just a few short weeks.”
He was just granted a divorce last month, but could Kiefer Sutherland already be ready to tie the knot again?
According to CelebEdge, Sutherland is very close to making that commitment to his new girlfriend, Siobhan Bonnouvrier.
“Now that Kiefer is finally divorced, everyone is hoping he will marry Siobhan,” a friend of Sutherland’s gushed. “Kiefer is a changed man and Siobhan is just the right woman for him. She is an amazing woman and has transformed Kiefer in just a few short weeks.”
Even though Sutherland recently spent some time in jail, the source claimed that Bonnouvrier “isn’t the least bit bothered by his fame or wild past and the relationship has blossomed. They are both looking for long-term commitment so they are on the same page in terms of relationship goals.
“Everyone is hoping Kiefer finally settles down and find happiness with her. You can tell just by looking at them they are madly in love.”
Who knew that Kiefer Sutherland has been married this whole time?
The Canadian and his former model ex, Elizabeth Kelly Winn, filed for divorce almost four years ago. The couple separated five years before that.
The divorce was made official on May 16, according to E!Online. Irreconcilable differences was listed as the reason for the split.
This makes two for Sutherland, who was previously married to actress Camelia Kath. He is currently dating a woman named Tricia Cardozo, and has also dated “24″ co-star Reiko Aylesworth.
Kiefer Sutherland surrendered to the law yesterday and began his jail sentence of 48 days.
Sutherland is now an inmate of the Glendale City Jail. He surrendered at 5:30 p.m. and was booked 16 minutes later. According to TMZ, his booking records list him as “5′10″, 150 lbs, blue eyes, blond hair, 40 years old.”
Because “24″ has been cancelled for the season due to the WGA strike, Sutherland was able to start his DUI sentence early. He was originally slated to surrender on December 21, his 41st birthday.
Sutherland will have his own jail cell, but only because he is a long-term inmate, not because of his celebrity status. However, he will have to wear the traditional orange jumpsuit.
