Three mentions of The Movie have popped up over the past week but some are questionable at best as we are struggling to find original sources.

When we get confirmation of each quote we'll add them to the other pages.

Kiefer made these comments about the movie during a recent interview with Virgin.net here:

"I think it's going to end up happening next summer. It's not going to replace the show, they are two very different entities and I think they can co-exist."

Apparently Sutherland also said during the same interview that the next Season will serve as a build up to the movie - quite the contradiction of his previous quote. The source is a questionable British gossip magazine. A scan can be found here. You must be registered at the Message Board to access this link.

From a German TV interview comes these roughly translated quotes:

"The writers are working on a 24 Movie now. But the story of the movie won't have anything to do with the TV show, much like [24: Conspiracy]. Production will start in April when we finish the shooting of Day 5."

Whether this was a screw up in translation is unknown as the original source was an uncaptured TV show. The roughly translated interview can be read in its entirety here. You must be registered at the Message Board to access this link.

The third is an interview on Jimmy Kimmel in which he says the following:

"We’re working on it. The Movie will be considerably different than the show if in fact we ever get the time to make it. The show takes up so much time. We are working about 10 months a year just on the show. But the show’s obviously in real time and the film it would be impossible to do that so the film would actually represent a 24-hour day. So we have some of it figured out. But that’s just the very beginning. Now we just need to cast it and do the story! We are worried about it. I think that’s why it’s taking us this long. I think if we are going to do a film we have to make sure that we can deliver something very special."

You can watch the interview here.
