Sutherland also mentioned in a recent interview that are working on the possibility of bringing '24' to the silver screen. From the tone of the interview, I got the distinct impression that Kiefer would be involved.
On last nights ep it said "now in HDTV".

Authentic Old World Italian Cuisine
Wow, what can I say about a place that nearly duplicates the bread that my Sicilian grandfather used to bake? Grazie! That's what I say. Devane's (owned by actor William Devane and his sons) is a gorgeous, romantic building. From the wrought-iron fixtures to the indoor and outdoor fireplaces, rustic elegance abounds. Yet you'll feel comfortable in jeans here. The food isn't particularly subtle, but it's hearty and really tastes like the Italian food I grew up with. There's nothing better than simple spaghetti and meatballs, simply prepared with great bread and wine. Ciao!
"3 for you....6 for me."
I'm sorry!
Producers of Fox TV's "24" have begun plotting a film franchise for main character Jack Bauer reports Entertainment Weekly. Actor Kiefer Sutherland is keen - "It can be an amazing series of movies. One of the things I've experienced making this show is that an audience can handle a lot more than we thought when we started -- the tension, the anxiety.... If we could [compress] all the energy we spread over 24 hours of programming and put that into 2, I think we'd knock your socks off". Meanwhile TV Guide reports that Elisha Cuthbert has agreed to reprise her role as Kim Bauer in a multi-episode arc in the 7th-10th episodes of the upcoming fifth season of "24". Cuthbert didn't appear last season, her character off living with her husband Chase (James Badge Dale). The character of Chase will not be returning.
...and...
Day five of "24" has not started well for Jack Bauer, but that's good news for FOX.
The season premiere of "24" grabbed some of the best ratings in the show's history Sunday (Jan. 16), taking advantage of a huge lead-in from an NFL playoff game to hit all-time highs among viewers and adults 18-49.
The two-hour premiere, which started at 8:13 p.m. ET (following the end of the Carolina Panthers-Chicago Bears playoff game), averaged 16.2 million viewers, a bump of more than a million viewers over last year's premiere on the same weekend. (Numbers are based on fast national ratings from Nielsen; final numbers will be out later in the week.)
The first hour of the premiere, which opened with the presumed-dead Jack (Kiefer Sutherland) being forced out of hiding by an assassination, drew 17 million sets of eyes and a 7.3 rating among adults 18-49, the network's target demographic. Both are the best in the show's history. Hour two slipped a little, to 15.5 million viewers and a 6.7 adults 18-49 rating, but still held on to better than 90 percent of its lead-in audience. The show also cut into the lead usually enjoyed by "Desperate Housewives." The ABC show still won the hour with 22.5 million viewers and a 9.5 18-49 rating, but those figures are below its season averages. The second half of "24's" four-hour premiere airs Monday night, and the show settles into its regular 9 p.m. Monday spot next week.
Well, they could swear in Vic Mackey as a CTU agent :)
I was looking at the first two hours again and looked close at Jack's gun. I don't think that it is a Glock - it has sloping sides. We all know that it's a plastic prop, but if they are going for reality maybe it is some other gun - any ideas/comments?
Whoo Hooo!!
JSO on COPS right now....
I commented to my wife that it looked like we were going to see that red sexy top for the next 24 episodes, but no such luck.
Which gun were you looking at? He pulled a Glock out from under the couch cushion.
That one was a Glock, the ones he had later in the show weren't. I think he had either an HK or a Sig.
>Vic Mackey as a CTU agent...
Yes, but then they'd put Dutch in charge.
He'd be the mole. Can't you see him and Edgar and Chloe working together? God, talk about a pack of neuroses.
What do you want to bet we see her on the dark side this season? I wouldn't mind seeing her on any side, actually.
Well that might be to your benefit.LOL
It's on HIghway 111 on the border of Indio and La Quinta which is about 20 miles east of Palm Springs.
