A prequel series that tells the origin story of "how Jack Bauer became Jack Bauer" is in the works at FOX per The Hollywood Reporter.
Original series creators Joel Surnow and Bob Cochran are reteaming for the project, co-writing the script for what could be an "ongoing series rather than a closed-ended limited series" rather than 24: Legacy or 24: Live Another Day.
It's unclear when the series could be on the air, though there had been some rumors in May that Fox could launch the new installment for midseason. Casting has not begun.
