Sutherland Confirms that Jack Bauer Will Be Back for Another Day

Despite reports that 24 would possibly continue without Jack Bauer next season, Kiefer Sutherland has confirmed that he will return for another season of the hit Fox show.

Sutherland told the Associated Press that his decision to return for season 8 was out of respect for the show that revived his career.

Sutherland also said that the show's future really hinges on the writers ability to come up with a good story.

"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," he said.
