A few weeks back our own Gossip Monkey reported on his column that a 24 movie was happening sooner-rather-than-later. Hes half-right just the peel of the banana this month, that means, OK? A 24 movie is indeed coming soon.
From what I gather, Monkey, whose a screenwriter over there in replacement-nose land, may have heard the rumour from one Bruce Bruno Willis who hes been talking to about a film recently, Im assuming for something at FOX? - , but candidly, I dont know where he gets his info, we just 1) trust his judgment b) promise to print everything he reports because hes promised us a percentage of the merchandise returns on his next movie.
But I digress 24 : The Movie wont be out until 2008. At which time, Kiefer Sutherland will probably be off the show.
Virginia Virtucon caught a radio interview with Joel Surnow, the creator and executive producer of the TV show (which, by the way, still hasnt even returned to air here in Oz!) on the Rush Limbaugh program, and summarised a few points.
Says the former, The big news out of the interview is there will be a "24" movie filmed in the summer of '07 with a release in '08. The movie will still take place over a 24 hour period, but will consist of three 40-minute real-time parts allowing for Jack Bauer to travel greater distances during the course of the story and bring him to more varied locations.
Ah, cool.
Meantime, TV Guide also has an update on the film, with an insider telling the site that "It's definitely not shooting this summer.the earliest it could theoretically be shot would be after the 2007 season."
