24: Is a Happy Ending Ahead for Jack Bauer?
Will Jack Bauer ever find happiness?
While fans may have stopped debating that question years ago, considering the unlikelihood of a positive answer, star Kiefer Sutherland says the eighth season of 24 will focus on Jack’s potential future.
“People would like to see him at least have the option to have a good life,” Sutherland told E! News. “We stripped a lot of those components over the years, by virtue of killing everybody, that whether he wants to live or die seemed to become innocuous—like who cares, there’s nothing really to live for. What we did for this season is to really try and create something that would make Jack want to live.”
Such as a relationship with Renee Walker, who producer David Fury confirms will return to 24 next year as a damaged individual.
As for other possible returns, Fury said there’s a possibility that Charles Logan (Gregory Itzin) and Mandy (Mia Kirshner) could appear on season eight. Viewers may even see Tony again.
“There may be an opportunity for Tony to be pivotal in the show,” said Fury.

12:40 pm | Kiefer Sutherland Reveals 24 Set Secrets
After six years in Los Angeles, 24 moved its storyline to D.C. last season. Now, as Kiefer Sutherland and company shoot season eight of the show, CTU is headed to New York City. The actor raved about the new sets in a recent interview with TV Guide Magazine.
“The new U.N. is very cool,” Sutherland said. “I was quite awestruck when I saw the set for the first time. The designs are so tasteful and represent such a diverse political spectrum, literally matching samples of graffiti taken from the ruins of the Berlin Wall. A lot of thought went into it.”
The new season of 24, which premieres in January 2010, will feature a new, sleek base of operations for CTU. This is where new agents Freddie Prinze Jr. and Katee Sackhoff will work out of.
