END IN SIGHT FOR HIT SHOW 24
KIEFER SUTHERLAND's groundbreaking TV drama 24 is set to end after season eight - paving the way for a big screen adaptation.
The cult series, in which Sutherland stars as federal agent Jack Bauer, is currently in its seventh season.
And executive producer Howard Gordon intends to axe it after one more series - but only to enable him to make a big-budget movie version.
He says, "My hope is to go after the eighth season. That's sort of what we're aiming for. I don't think that a big-screen 24 works while Jack is on TV."
And Sutherland has warned fans not to expect a happy ending for his character.
He says, "I see Jack as a really human figure and there is something innately tragic about people. I think there is no winning. We're all going to die. There's something kind of sad in that, and yet there's something really beautiful and hopeful."

Love 24 & will hate to see it go. Jack sooner or later had to have something
happen to him--die from someone killing him or in the line of duty. I would've
liked to see him taking an interest in agent Walker & vice-versa and Chloe
being re-instated, etc. Too bad Bill had to die too & Larry Moss. Knew all
along who were traitors.
no don't make jack die that would be gay there's like no point of the show he
has to get back with his daughter and go out with agent walker that would be
slot better.....and I want to play jacks son a son he never had or nobody knew
about if there is a season 9
