“You’re lucky I’m retired.”
When given a chance to either move to Los Angeles with his daughter Kim (Elisha Cuthbert) or get caught up in another day of hell, Jack Bauer makes the smart choice: he throws himself into harm’s way.
In this trailer for Season 8 of 24, Bauer (Kiefer Sutherland) finds himself in New York trying to stop the assassination of a Middle Eastern leader (Slumdog Millionaire‘s Anil Kapoor) at the United Nations. New faces helping him along with this mission include Katee Sackhoff, Freddie Prinze Jr. and Mykelti Williamson.
24 returns to FOX’s schedule on January 17.

Kiefer Sutherland Will Return for Another Season of 24
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Action, Drama, Prime Time, FOX, 24, Renewals,
Back in September, Day 7 of 24 appeared to be on shaky ground. Now cast and crew are already preparing for Day 8.
During his promotional tour for Monsters vs. Aliens, Kiefer Sutherland told the AP that he intends on being around for his show’s next chapter. “If I was going to liken 24 to a girlfriend, 24 has been really good to me. And I need to be really good back,” he explained.
Although he is itching to try other things, the 42-year-old apparently realizes he is lucky to be employed. “There are plays I want to do. There are so many different things I would like to do, but I was so fortunate to be part of something like 24 that my focus is still on that right now,” he said.
So how much longer can we expect to see Jack Bauer fighting for our country? That will depend on how many scenarios the creative team can cook up. “The real pressure is placed on the writers. It’s a real question about how much they feel they can give and what they can do,” Sutherland said.
Filming on Season 8 will begin this May.
