Hey guys, Jana here,

Fox has issued a formal pilot order for a reboot of the Kiefer Sutherland-starring ‘24‘, titled ‘24: Legacy‘. With a new title come new characters and Sutherland’s Jack Bauer will not be a part of the series.

The series will focus on an all-new cast of characters while staying with the real-time format storytelling, with each episode representing one hour of the day. The plot will center on a military hero’s return to the U.S. and the events that follow him back, leading him to ask CTU for help in saving his life, and stopping what potentially could be on of the largest-scale terror attacks on U.S. soil.

One boon for the new show is the participation of original ‘24‘ producers Howard Gordon, Manny Coto, Evan Katz and Imagine’s Brian Grazer that will help insure the feel of the drama stays in place.
