The feature film of 24 is closer to reality with news that a completed script is expected to be fine-tuned by the end of the year.

Mark Bomback (The Wolverine, Shadow Divers) is doing some last minute tweaking of a script byu writer Billy Ray.

Deadline says the goal is to get the film into production when Kiefer Sutherland becomes available in April. He is currently starring in the series Touch, which is coming to TEN.

Imagine Entertainment and FOX have about five directors in mind.

Dammit.

    David Palmer is dead unfortunately. Would love to have him back through, just to hear Jack say “Mr President”.

    Bring back Nina Myers!. I forget, did we ever Actually see her dead body?
    I’d rather see a new season after a few years hiatus – not a movie.

    So Jack will save the day from nuclear annihilation and save an endangered family member in about two hours?

    He’s getting better…

    @David – why ‘Dammit.’?

    Anyone else notice how One is showing season one of 24 later and later? Last night it started at 11:30pm, after a double episode of Rush.

    I’d be surprised if One showed season two, even though it was part of the 2012 line up.

    Wooo!! What fantastic news to wake up to :)
