24: Legacy

24: Legacy is a potential new 24 series, first announced in early 2016. The series will feature a new cast of characters while utilizing the real time storytelling technique of the original series.

Production
In June 2015, Fox announced development on a follow-up series to 24: Live Another Day, focusing on a younger, "twentysomething" Jack Bauer-like lead character and an older, seasoned female agent, while still featuring Bauer in a reduced story role. Evan Katz and Manny Coto were attached as writers and executive producers. In August, it was confirmed that Kiefer Sutherland would not be returning, with the new series to focus on a new cast of characters, allowing for the possibility of appearances by past 24 characters.

24: Legacy was ordered as a pilot by Fox and officially announced by Dana Walden at the Television Critics' Association press tour in January 2016. The first season, if ordered, will run for twelve episodes, similar to Live Another Day. The series will follow Eric Carter, a returning military hero who finds himself caught up in a terrorist conspiracy and seeks the aid of CTU. A female former head of CTU will also figure prominently in the story. The pilot, directed by 24 alum Stephen Hopkins, will film in winter, with casting already underway for the role of Carter. At the time of the announcement, Walden stated that there were no plans to include past 24 characters.
