Forums - Movies & TV - A new 24 series confirmed!

Well I know it may sound misleading in the title but it would appear that 24 is coming back, just not to North America. A 24 series will be launching based on India's fight against terrorists. The localized new 24 series will feature veteran 24 actor Anil Kapoor who will be filing Jack's protagonist role in the new season of 24. 20th Century Fox signed a deal with Kapoors on production company to produce the Indian series based on everyone's favorite counter terrorist series.

Kapoor mentions that with growing acts of terror in India and its surrounding regions "The timing could not be better. It's very, very relevant over here."He expects 24 to take off in India and expects it to be a run away hit. No word on whether the Indian version will be dubbed or subbed for fans of 24 around the world.

Kapoor has re-assured fans that the series will strongly resemble the North American series in which it is based. Reports from IGN indicate " the show is expected, at least initially, to closely resemble the original's early story arc. But will they eventually get to the Kim Bauer and the cougar storyline?!"

Kapoor really became a household name with his smashing role in Slum Dog Millionaire. Do you think he can pull off 24? Are you an Indian who is dying to see a Indian version of 24? As a 24 fan are you going to watch the Indian series dubbed or subbed? Are you interested in the fact that many of our American shows are seeing localization in other countries like the Russian version of How I Met Your Mother? Or should these series simply be dubbed and released as they are in these countries?

While I knew the title would be mis-read it isn't false. Its not like I lied or stretched the truth. There is a new season of 24 coming soon it just isn't a North American season. But considering the wide spread anger over the title I changed it so that it is less misleading. This return of the 24 series taking place in India is interesting.

I wonder how Bollywood will adapt 24 to India's audiences and situation with terrorism. Will their be a ton of dance numbers and singing as they are shooting at the terrorists? Or will this be more true to the 24 us in the west know?

I probably over-reacted to the title but I'm a huge 24 fan so I got excited there. I was skeptical but that title you had was pretty clear cut so I thought it could be legit.

Well I apologize for letting you down, I am a massive 24 fan as well own every season and the TV movie. Still hoping that the theatrical movie gets made I know it was announced but I haven't heard anything about it in a long time. Unfortunetly I don't think  Kiefer Sutherland is in a position to return to his role, his life went to shit I'm surprised they were able to continue the series as long as they did. Hopefully the theatrical release will eventually come! Though last I heard the new 24 movie will come in 2013, that will be awesome if true!
