"24: The Movie"
Posted by Emily RugBurn on 06-08-06 at 06:30 PM
"Under the most optimistic scenario, feature would be greenlit early next year and lense next spring and summer during the hiatus between season six and a likely seventh season of "24."

Current plan calls for the "24" feature to abandon the real-time conceit of the TV show, making Sutherland's Jack Bauer, rather than the clock, the star.

Such a notion would allow scribes much greater plot possibilities, opening up scenarios not possible on a show where all the action takes place in one day. Chief on the list is international travel.

It's believed producers are toying with several possible locales for the pic, including London. Skein has a strong aud base in Blighty.

A rough sketch of the "24" feature plot has been drafted, but all those involved in the project are keeping a tight lid on details for now.

Pic would likely pick up where season six of the show leaves off, at least chronologically. Plotwise, however, the film is not expected to be tied too heavily to the "24" mythology, allowing those who haven't watched the series to understand the movie's action."

Bumping...because they are talking again.

Kiefer Sutherland's dream of bringing 24 to cinemas is set to come true - Hollywood bosses have commissioned a script to turn the TV hit into a movie.

The actor has long talked of transforming the real time series into a film franchise, with plans to transfer the action drama from America to Europe.

And now TV bosses are moving forward with the plans, hiring the writer behind Russell Crowe's 2009 thriller State of Play to pen the story for a big budget 24 film, according to Variety.com.
