Corey Hawkins replaces Keifer Sutherland on ’24’ reboot, reports say

We’re currently living in a world where every show that has ever aired is now guaranteed a reboot at some point in time, as is the case for FOX’s hit 24.

A couple of weeks ago, it was announced that that the starring role was conceived as an African American man, but there was no word on what actors were being considered.

Back at home in Virginia with his wife Nicole, Carter seeks out help from CTU after his life is in danger when his past comes back to haunt him.

Howard Gordon, Manny Coto, and Evan Katz of the original show will be executive producers on the new project.

Kiefer Sutherland mentioned back in 2014 that he didn’t want to come back to the series. While 24’s eighth season left a lot to be desired, its limited-run return in 24: Live Another Day was actually quite decent. It’s unclear whether he’ll be back in the role for the show’s seventh season.

Gary Gray’s musical biopic is anything to go by, 24 fans can be quietly confident going into Fox’s soft reboot.
