New "24" Series Not Ordered to Series - TCA 2019
Neither "24" Offshoot Moving Forward at Fox but Network Is Open to Bringing Franchise Back
by Nellie Andreeva February 6, 2019 Fox had been developing two new "24" series, a real-time legal thriller written by executive showrunner Howard Gordon and Jeremy Doner, and a prequel, tracing the origin story of CTU agent Jack Bauer, from Gordon and "24" co-creators Joel Surnow and Bob Cochran. Of the two, the legal drama progressed beyond the initial script, and went through further development and reworking. But in the end, neither project made it to a pilot order this season. During the TCA executive session, Fox Entertainment CEO Charlie Collier called it a blessing to have the "24" legacy and a responsibility to bring it back. He acknowledged that the network is not announcing anything. He expressed admiration for the creative auspices behind "24", from Imagine TV and 20th TV, but he stressed that when we get it right, the network takes bringing the franchise back very seriously. The "24" producers are now expected to go back to the drawing board. https://deadline.com/2019/02/24-offs...rn-1202551109/ |
