Jack Bauer is Going To Stomp Your Ass on the Big Screen


I know I made a big deal about The Sentinel being the second coming of Jack Bauer, but I was only lying to you. That Jack Bauer never cut somebody's head off with a hacksaw. This one did.

DarkHorizons is reporting that "24" is set to film a big-screen movie a year from now. While rumors have floated around for years to that effect, Jack Bauer himself discussed it in an interview.

  • Sutherland says "The shoot will take place in London and Prague. Then we will use Morocco as a location - probably as an aspect of the Middle East. We'll do the filming a year from now."

While I am a little nervous about having them take it out of the US (and as such, presumably, away from the base of characters they already created), it could be good. Bauer has tortured men with a lamp. Bauer has been resurrected twice (Beat that, Jesus!). Bauer has kicked a heroin addiction in one day. Bauer has hijacked a motherfreaking airplane. With every crazy thing Jack Bauer's done, what will be "too hot for TV" and presented on the silver screen?

  • Cutting off a terrorist's penis and beating him to death with it.
  • Smuggling himself into a foreign country, presumably inside the corpse of our dearly departed Edgar Stiles.
  • I'd think of a third thing, but I'm still laughing about somebody getting beaten to death with their own penis.
