Here is how FOX describes Jack Bauer’s return:
JACK IS BACK!!! LONDON CALLS JACK BAUER INTO THE FRAY!
EMMY AWARD WINNER KIEFER SUTHERLAND RETURNS AS ICONIC ACTION HERO IN SPECIAL TWO-HOUR EVENT SERIES PREMIERE OF “24: LIVE ANOTHER DAY” MONDAY, MAY 5, ON FOX
Set and shot in London, the suspenseful event series once again will follow the exploits of heroic agent JACK BAUER (Kiefer Sutherland). Four years ago, Jack was a fugitive from justice. Now an exile, he nevertheless is willing to risk his life and freedom to avert yet another global disaster. Tracking Jack are CIA head STEVE NAVARRO (Benjamin Bratt, “Law & Order”); CIA agent KATE MORGAN (Yvonne Strahovski, “Dexter”), who is both resourceful and ruthless; JORDAN REED (Giles Matthey, “Jobs”), a smart and sophisticated CIA computer tech; and ERIK RITTER (Gbenga Akinnagbe, “The Wire”), a sharp, strong and arrogant field operative. Calling the shots is JAMES HELLER (William Devane, “The Dark Knight Rises”), now President of the United States. Heller is flanked by his Chief of Staff MARK BOUDREAU (Tate Donovan, “Damages”), who is married to Heller’s daughter – Jack’s former flame, AUDREY (Kim Raver, “Revolution”). Meanwhile, a hardened CHLOE O’BRIAN (Mary Lynn Rajskub, “Firewall”), Bauer’s CTU confidante, is now working underground with high-profile hacker ADRIAN CROSS (Michael Wincott, “The Crow”). The iconic pulse-pounding clock resets when 24: LIVE ANOTHER DAY premieres with a special two-hour television event “Day 9: 11:00 AM-12:00 PM/ Day 9: 12:00 PM-1:00 PM” on Monday, May 5 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.
