"24" film is still on its way; script still in the works

A 24 feature film has been in the works for a while now, with nothing real coming out of constant production rumors as of yet. The hit show starring king of all-around bad-assery, Jack Bauer, came to its end after its eighth season last summer. Needless to say, the 24 movie is a slow-gestating project that fans can’t help but be riled up over.

Today’s update on the project comes from a Fox TV executive who has his pulse on the status of production. Fox Entertainment Chairman Peter Rice had this to say about the project:

“I don’t work at the movie company, but my intelligence around the lot is everybody would very much like to make a 24 movie ,and I believe that they’re working on the script. When they say ‘We don’t have a script,’ they don’t have a completed script that they’re about to go shoot. There’s a great desire to see Jack Bauer on the big screen.” Continue reading “"24" film is still on its way; script still in the works” →

"24" film producer confirms a 2012 release

The long-gestating 24 film has been a lot like a game of red light green light. Just as things are really starting to get going, something gets in the way causing the film to be delayed. Although the film seemed to be on pause, Kiefer Sutherland was claiming that the film would make a 2012 release.

Although the likelihood of that seemed unclear, 24 producer Brian Grazer just confirmed the 2012 release. Continue reading “"24" film producer confirms a 2012 release” →

24 movie to hit next year, according to Kiefer Sutherland

The 24 movie has been brewing for a while now, with seemingly very little progress happening. We had Billy Ray’s script that got turned down a while back, and the film has yet to have a director attached. However, hopes still seem to be very high on the project from those involved.

But has 24 already gone the way of the ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT movie? Kiefer Sutherland says otherwise, as he claims the film will release next year. Continue reading “24 movie to hit next year, according to Kiefer Sutherland” →

Time for a 24 movie update

24 may be over as far as the TV series goes, but it’s no secret that the hit show will probably be transitioning to the big screen. Although there was a lot of initial speculation and talk when it was first announced that the show was ending, it has pretty much bottomed off since then. Now we are starting to hear rumblings about it again, which means Jack Bauer must have an itchy trigger finger.

Howard Gordon, an executive producer on 24 says that they already have a script ready to go. Gordon says:

“There is a draft that is in. No one is in a position right now to know when or what the movie will be, exactly. Now that the TV show is over, the movie will be it’s own thing.” Continue reading “Time for a 24 movie update” →
