24 James Swallow

Receiving 73 Emmy Award nominations over eight seasons, 24 revolutionized the format of TV dramas on a global scale. Kiefer Sutherland starred as heroic Counter Terrorist Unit agent Jack Bauer, racing against the clock in real time to thwart multiple terrorist plots over eight seasons. On May 5, 2014, Jack Bauer returns in 24: Live Another Day to restart the ticking clock on the groundbreaking and Emmy Award-winning drama. Deadline will answer some of the questions of what happened to Jack in the four years between the end of season eight and the new, soon-to-air season nine. One hour after the dramatic conclusion of 24 Day 8, former federal agent-turned-fugitive Bauer dresses his wounds and considers his next move. With his former colleagues in the Counter Terrorist Unit now dead, under arrest, or shut down, Jack has no resources to call upon, no back-up and nowhere to go only his determination can drive him on. One thing remains clear to him the promise he made to his daughter Kim. Jack vows that he will see Kim one last time to tell her he loves her, before he drops off the radar forever...and he wont allow anyone to stand in his way.
