’24′ Movie Set for 2012 Release

Posted by @coltondaniel on April 12th, 2011

The following news takes place between…

According to super-producer Brian Grazer’s Twitter account, the long-in-development 24 movie has been confirmed for a 2012 release date. It’s time for the generation’s Chuck Norris to reign again.

“Got off the phone with Kiefer yesterday, and we are very exciteded about producing the ’24′ movie for next year,” said Grazer on his Twitter last Tuesday.

Grazer and his buddy Ron Howard produced the 24 TV series from 2001-2010 on Fox under their Imagine Entertainment company.

Last month, Sutherland reported to both Entertainment Weekly and the lovely ladies on The View that the film is “the little engine that could” and it will come out in 2012. But, with Grazer on board it has become official.

Interview with Former 24 Executive Producer, Howard Gordon

Posted by Lauren Treihaft on February 7th, 2011

While most of the eastern half of North America is buried under a foot of snow, Howard Gordon, writer and producer of hugely popular franchises such as “The X-Files” and “24″, has been ditching the snowpocolyspe and spending time at his home in sunny Los Angeles. However, don’t be fooled, Gordon has not been out soaking up the sun. He has been hard at work on his new (and first) novel, Gideon’s War, and his position as executive producer of the upcoming Showtime political drama, “Homeland.”

“It was like a scene from ’24.’ I was racing the clock and running around Casablanca trying to find a fed-ex store to meet my editors deadline,” Gordon tells andPOP, when asked how he had the time to finish his charged political thriller, Gideon’s War. Though he began drafting the novel during the writers strike in 2007, he finished it once “24″ was over while he was traveling with his son in Egypt and Morocco. “I was finishing it in hotel rooms and airplanes.” Hardly a desirable situation, though the writer/producer says that he does his best writing on airplanes.

The book is about Gideon Davis, an American peacemaker, who is called upon by his father figure to get his brother, Tillman Davis, out of trouble. Tillman has become a rogue agent in Southeast Asia who is responsible for many deaths and has highjacked a billion dollar oil rig. Tillman however has agreed to be escorted to Washington D.C., and will turn himself in, but only if his brother is on the job.

Like elements of ”24″, the book explores the relationship between two brothers. This appears to be a common thread in Gordon’s work. “There is something I love about the relationship between brothers. I am one of 3 brothers myself.” Gordon says that it was interesting to set up a character dynamic in which one brother is a complete pacifist and the other a complete terrorist. Gordon says any parallels between Gideon and the beloved Jack Bauer were unintentional. “Jack and Gideon are not cut from the same club. Gideon is a more wounded character who doesn’t have a family like Bauer. He keeps people at arm’s length.” However, each character is heavily involved with foreign policy. Gordon says he doesn’t know where his interest in foreign policy began. He went to Princeton and was interested in the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs. “I think my interest comes from a patriotic place. There is a tremendous idea behind America. You could call it American exceptionalism or pluralism. Even though not everything is right, every citizen has a civic duty to their country.”

Jack Bauer Gets Drunk at New York Bar

Posted by andPOP Staff on June 25th, 2010

Jack Bauer, or Kiefer Sutherland (whatever you prefer), is a man who likes to party and have a good time. And with “24″ over, Bauer is going to have a lot more free time on his hands to have a good time.

PerezHilton reports that Sutherland was at a New York City bar getting so drunk, he started taking off his shirt.

A source says “Kiefer got so drunk, he took off his shirt and tried to take the pictures off the wall at the bar. He eventually calmed down and was not asked to leave the hotel.”

Granted it may have not been the most respectful thing to do, but with all that “24″ money, let the man have a good time!

Kiefer Sutherland Gets Ejected From London Strip Club

Posted by andPOP Staff on April 16th, 2010

You wouldn’t think Jack Bauer would hang out at strip clubs. However Kiefer Sutherland is a fan of the topless ladies and likes to let loose once in a while.

Unfortunately a little too loose it turns out. The “24″ star was thrown out of a strip club last night in London, reports TMZ. According to the website, Sutherland was acting crazy – dancing and shouting, at the Stringfellows “lapdance club.”

After getting into an altercation with someone at the club, bouncers threw a shirtless Sutherland out of the club.

On its website, Stringfellows says security wasn’t grabbing Kiefer — merely “helping him into his car.”

’24′ Series Ends This Season But Movie In The Works

Posted by andPOP Staff on March 26th, 2010

Although there have been rumors and debate about the future of Fox’s hit series “24,” the official word came down today that the series will be coming to an end.

EW.com reports that Kiefer Sutherland said that “24″ will not be moving to NBC, despite earlier talks. Sutherland and executive producer Howard Gordon decided it was time to end the TV run.

“The writers are producing the equivalent of 12 films a year, which is unheard of, and Howard felt to do a ninth would be potentially damaging,” said Sutherland. “We both felt strongly that there has been a demand and an interest in a 24 film, which would be a two-hour representation of a 24-hour day, so we felt it was time to move in that direction.”

Sutherland promises that the finale for the “24″ will queue up the movie that is currently in the works. “We wanted to create a definitive end for Jack Bauer,” explains Sutherland. “Since we do have the intention to make the feature film, it would lead into that and certainly set that up.”

Jack Bauer from ’24′ Heading to NBC?

Posted by andPOP Staff on March 13th, 2010

“24″ is a extremely expensive show to produce, as you can probably tell with the weekly massive explosions, car chases, etc. Entertainment Weekly is reporting that although Fox is at its end with “24″, the show may have a glimpse of hope with NBC.

Apparently the producers of “24″, 20th Century Fox, have approached NBC about picking up the series. And although ratings are stagnant and the show costs a fortune to produce, NBC is apparently seriously considering the offer.

Kiefer Sutherland AKA ‘Jack Bauer’ Health Scare

Posted by andPOP Staff on February 15th, 2010

“While Kiefer Sutherland is frustrated to miss even one day of work, he and Fox decided together that it would be best to complete this minor elective procedure now as a precaution as opposed to six weeks from now when production wraps,” his representatives tells the LA Times.

Kiefer Sutherland Discusses Possible End of 24

Posted by Vanessa Baker on July 26th, 2009

Kiefer SutherlandKiefer 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.”

Kiefer Sutherland In Jail

Posted by andPOP Staff on December 6th, 2007

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.

’24′ Lets Tony Almeida Live Another Day

Posted by andPOP Staff on September 20th, 2007

24 fans rejoice! Not only will Jack Bauer (Canadian Kiefer Sutherland) officially be returning to television on January 13, but Tony Almeida will be by his side once again.

Though Tony (Carlos Bernard) presumably died due to injuries from the terrorist car bombing that killed his wife, Michelle, the writers did leave a small hint at his survival.

A customary tribute to deceased characters is for the famous digital clock to tick silently after the last appearance of the departed. Tony did not receive such a farewell, despite being one of the show’s most beloved and trusted characters.

Tony’s resurrection isn’t the only surprise in store for our hero Jack. Season 7 will find CTU disbanded, and all the edge-of-your-seat action moved from Los Angeles to Washington.

Fan faves Chloe O’Brian and Bill Buchanon (Mary Lynn Rajskub and James Morrison) are the only other known returning cast members. Newcomers this season include Cherry Jones, Janeane Garofalo, Colm Feore, Annie Wersching, Jeffrey Nordling, John Billingsley and Rhys Coiro.

Be sure to tune into the 4-hour season premiere event in January, on Sunday 13 and Monday 14.
