The script for a 24 movie is already in the bag, Kiefer says, and he’s ready to start work on it, as the series finale wrapped last week.
The most interesting part, to me? The film will take place over a 24-hour period, but because it’s condensed into two hours, I’d imagine it should have far less filler, far less stupid political exposition and Jack can actually travel to, say, Eastern Europe. (Kiefer mentioned that location, so I’m wondering if this is going to harken back to the very beginning and the Drazens.)
Who wrote the script? Billy Ray, who wrote State of Play. So this could be good. Kiefer’s gonna read it when he gets back home.
Oh, and did you know that he went to a lapdance club and got in a fight with the bouncers and ended up being wrangled, shirtless, out of the club?
Click on the link in the above paragraph for the photo. I couldn’t find an embeddable version, dammit.

Read recent interview with Howard Gordon who says the script takes place in Europe. Wouldn’t say if CTU was involved. No mention of Chloe – so either she’s out or she dies this season. Maybe he’s chasing the Russians who did in Red Hot. Maybe he’s found where they’ve hidden Audrey. Or, my favorite, maybe he’s found that Yelena (Nina Myers) is still alive and hiding out.
Jack gets kicked out of a lapdance bar? They just killed his girlfriend. Poor Jack just can’t catch a break.
@Juan – I hope Chloe’s in it. She’s so awesome. But at least I hope she isn’t killed. The return of Nina – or Mandy – would be kind of sweet.
@Sunny – Seriously, right? The guy’s just trying to relax with a nice lapdance and he gets kicked out for dancing like a crazy man? Poor guy.
I like that they misspelled apologize in that article…totally adds to their credibility
