After months of rumor, gossip and speculation 20th Century Fox has announced that it will bring it’s TV hit show “24” starring Kiefer Sutherland to the big screen. While no star committments have been made, it is almost a certainty that Sutherland will take his small screen character, Agent Jack Bauer to the larger theatrical venue. Sutherland is also executive producer of the television show.

It isn’t yet clear if the movie will follow the same stringent format as the program, however, the film is unlikely to tie it’s hands to such tight restrictions.
