‘I would have played the character until the day I died if it wasn’t just going to feel ridiculous – how many bad days could one guy have?
Kiefer Sutherland has admitted he’s keen for a 24 return, but doesn’t want Jack Bauer’s story to become ridiculous.
The 52-year-old actor portrayed Counter Terrorism Agent Jack Bauer in nine seasons of the real time drama from 2001 to 2014 and though he knows it would have been ‘ridiculous’ to carry on much longer at the time, he’d jump at the chance to reprise the role if it became feasible. ’ he said.‘If there was ever a format that made sense where I could be part of it, I would absolutely do that.In recent years, Kiefer has turned his attention to country music but he insists acting will always be the “great love” of his life.
Asked if music is his focus now, he said: “It’s not. I’ve just finished the third season of ‘Designated Survivor’.‘But the common denominator is, with the song writing certainly, that I love telling stories.The Designated Survivor star’s daughter, Sarah Sutherland, is also an actress but Kiefer insisted that not only was her chosen career unrelated to his, she’s turned down the chance to work with him twice.
Asked if he encouraged her to act, he told Britain’s OK! magazine: ‘No, I didn’t at all. She started writing when she was really young and when she was in theatre school she wrote two one-woman shows that actually got put on off Broadway.
