Kiefer Sutherland says a creative idea for a possible *24* reboot is in place, with longtime executive producer Howard Gordon and co-creator Joel Surnow involved. He says he misses playing Jack Bauer and hopes the series returns, though he does not want to bring back an older, physically diminished version of the character.

Sutherland said the main obstacle is the current rights-holders’ willingness to make the show, which he believes may have waned as ownership changed hands. He described the project as a hope rather than a confirmed production: the article gives no schedule, network or streaming service, or formal green light.
