By Sarah Rollo Sutherland 'ready' to make '24' film
Rex Features Kiefer Sutherland has revealed that he has been "ready for years" for 24 to be made into a feature film.
The actor was speaking at a Beverly Hills event held to celebrate a two-hour special of the series which was filmed in Africa and will air in both the UK and US next week.
"I've been ready for years," Sutherland said, before cautioning that a film may still be some time in the making.
"I think from the writers' perspective it's so hard to get through a season and the second we end they start on the next one, but I certainly hope we will one day because I would love to tackle the idea of a 24-hour day represented in a two-hour film," he said.
Executive producer and director Jon Cassar revealed that he is not ruling it out as an option, saying: "There's always talk, but we probably have to wait until the television show is over and then deal with a feature film."
The show's seventh series is scheduled to begin in the UK in the New Year, while two-hour special 24: Redemption will air November 23 in the US and November 24 in the UK. | |

- Kiefer Sutherland on "24: The Movie" Status 11-17-2008 (14:30:32)
Kiefer Sutherland has revealed that he's desperate to make "24" into a movie. The actor was speaking at a special event in Beverly Hills celebrating a two-hour special of the show which airs next week. Sutherland said he was definitely up for bringing the hit action show to the big screen. "I've been ready for years," he said.
But he added that making the show itself had made it hard to find time to make a movie. "I think from the writers' perspective it's so hard to get through a season and the second we end they start on the next one, but I certainly hope we will one day because I would love to tackle the idea of a 24 hour day represented in a two hour film," he said.
Sutherland wasn't the only interested in turning the show into a feature film. Executive producer and director Jon Cassar said he was not ruling it out as an option. "There's always talk," he explained. "But we probably have to wait until the television show is over and then deal with a feature film."
Are you looking forward to a "24" feature film?
