Fox takker nej til film baseret på "24 Timer"

Tony Scott overvejes som instruktør.

Tilbage i april sidste år kunne Kiefer Sutherland afsløre, at manuskriptforfatter Billy Ray (State of Play, Flightplan) havde skrevet et udkast færdigt til en film baseret på "24 Timer", men nu forlyder det, at 20th Century Fox har takket nej til projektet efter at have gennemlæst manuskriptet.

"I was disappointed [Fox] passed on the script, but I'm certainly hopeful that the movie will get made at some point," udtaler producer Howard Gordon. "I do think there is more life in Jack Bauer."

Gordon tilføjer, at Tony Scott (Top Gun, True Romance, Enemy of the State) overvejer at instruere filmen med sin egen tilgang.

"As far as I know, [the movie] is in suspended animation," siger han. "There is talk about re-approaching it. I understand Tony Scott is meeting with Kiefer to talk about ideas. People are still talking about it."
