Even though word on the street has been that the 24 movie may be in jeopardy, Kiefer Sutherland seems confident its going to happen.
In a recent interview with Extra he confidently said, “we won’t start shooting for about eight months.”
He added that the script is still being written but he expects that it will continue to be a work-in-progress throughout the shoot. “It’s a very difficult thing to take something that you’ve done for eight years, almost 200 episodes, and try and find a story that’s going to be unique and yet service the history of the show as well. That is to be expected. So we start shooting hopefully by next December or January,” he added.
If the movie does go into production this year, there is little doubt that it will be filmed, at least in part, in Los Angeles, the home base for all eight episodes of the series.
To get your Kiefer fix in the meantime, you can catch him on Broadway in That Championship Season, along with Chris Noth.
