The online countdown to the trailer’s debut begins today at www.24trailer.com. Fans around the globe can take their first look at Season Six by visiting the website on Tuesday, Oct. 24 (3:00 PM ET/Noon PT).

“… Bauer, or rather actor Kiefer Sutherland, looked tanned, relaxed and — very unlike Jack — happy at Fox’s press tour party …
Sutherland, who stood with his requisite pack of Camel cigarettes in his pocket …
‘We just got the first scripts,’ he told a scrum of reporters.
He was typically sketchy on other details, but admitted things look pretty grim for Jack.
‘He’s at the end of his line. Something’s going to have to really rejuvenate him from the position that he’s in,’ said Sutherland, ‘otherwise he’s just going to be dead.’
He added that it will be interesting this coming season, which starts again in January, ‘to come from a really deep dark place and actually try to come up instead of starting from an up position and trying to go down.’ …
… Some reporters were surprised Sutherland was at the press tour at all. His show is going into a sixth season and he’s made his millions from syndication and DVD sales. This is usually the point where a big-shot like Sutherland bails, at least until that farewell season is announced.
Still, the Emmy-nominated actor feels a certain loyalty to TV critics.
‘We wouldn’t have been picked up if it wasn’t for this group five years ago,’ he said.
‘We were on the fence and teetering off it in the wrong direction.’ He added that 24 ‘has been the most amazing experience of my career to date.'”

“Kiefer Sutherland has revealed that a movie version of his hit US TV show 24 is to be made in London. The actor … told chat show host Jonathan Ross about his plans on his BBC One show, which airs on Friday.
‘We’re working on that,’ he said. ‘We’ll shoot the film here. We’re really excited about it.’
‘In the US, 24 was slow to catch on but in the UK it was big so Fox stuck with it, so thank you Britain.'”
“’24,’ the groundbreaking,award-winning and critically-acclaimed series starring Kiefer Sutherland, will premiere in off-network syndication on local television stations throughout the U.S. beginning on October 1, 2005”
At this moment Fox are rubbing there hands, as the cash-cow comes home to milk, according to a press release sent out by Fox, the show will go into syndication after reaching 96 episodes (100 is the usual landmark for syndication, but 96 is close enough), for U.S. networks syndication is where the big money is.

On January 16, the fifth hour of “24” will air in the show‘s regular 9 p.m. Monday slot.
