It’s official: Fox is making a new version of _24_.

Also official: The reboot will have an all-new cast, with producers currently seeking an African-American actor to take over for longtime series star Kiefer Sutherland.

Fox has given an official pilot order to _24: Legacy,_ a new series starter that contains many of the hallmarks of the original action hit that launched in 2001 and ran for nine seasons on Fox: “The pilot will feature an all-new cast of characters and retain the real-time, pulse-pounding, fast-paced format with split screens and complex interweaving storylines, with each episode representing one hour of an eventful day.” Original producers Howard Gordon, Manny Coto and Evan Katz will return as executive producers.

But that means Jack Bauer (Sutherland) has firmly walked off into the sunset. Sutherland has recently been cast in a new ABC thriller called _Designated Survivor_, where he’ll play a man suddenly handed the presidency after a catastrophic attack during the State of the Union address.

The _24_ reboot is about a military hero who returns to the U.S. and the trouble that follows him back – compelling him to ask the Counter Terrorist Unit for help in saving his life, and stopping what potentially could be one of the largest-scale terror attacks on American soil.

The pilot, filming this winter, has not yet been cast, but the process is underway.

With Fox’s TCA press tour happening right now, we’ll add more _24_ details from the network’s executives shortly.
