Fox's "24: Legacy" is a reboot of the network's popular series "24", which starred Kiefer Sutherland as Counter Terrorist Unit agent Jack Bauer, renowned for his brutal means of obtaining information from terrorists.
"Legacy" introduces a new character, a troubled military hero (Corey Hawkins, "Straight Outta Compton"), who asks the CTU to save his life while also stopping one of the largest-scale terror attacks on American soil, all in the show's trademark real-time twenty-four hours time frame. The cast also includes Miranda Otto, Jimmy Smits, Dan Bucatinsky, Charlie Hofheimer, Sheila Vand, Gerald McRaney, Anna Diop, Coral Peña and Teddy Sears. Also, "24" veteran Carlos Bernard will reprise the role of Tony Almeida.
"24: Legacy" will debut as a two-night premiere this Sunday and Monday at 8p.

Official Synopsis
"The clock ticks again with 24: LEGACY, the next evolution of the Emmy Award-winning “24.” From Emmy Award-winning executive producer Howard Gordon (“Homeland,” “24: Live Another Day”), Academy Award- and Emmy Award-winning executive producer Brian Grazer (“A Beautiful Mind,” “24”), writers and executive producers Manny Coto and Evan Katz (“24,” “24: Live Another Day”), director and executive producer Stephen Hopkins (“24”) and executive producer and original series star Kiefer Sutherland, 24: LEGACY chronicles an adrenaline-fueled race against the clock to stop a devastating terrorist attack on United States soil – in the same real-time format that has propelled this genre-defining series.
Six months ago in Yemen, an elite squad of U.S. Army Rangers, led by Sergeant ERIC CARTER (Corey Hawkins, “Straight Outta Compton”), killed terrorist leader Sheik Ibrahim Bin-Khalid. In the aftermath, Bin-Khalid’s followers declared a fatwah against Carter, his squad and their families, forcing them into federal witness protection. But a recent attempt on Carter’s own life makes it clear to him that his team is now exposed. To thwart further attacks, Carter enlists REBECCA INGRAM (Miranda Otto, “Homeland”), who quarterbacked the raid that killed Bin-Khalid. She’s a brilliant and ambitious intelligence officer who has stepped down from her post as National Director of CTU to support her husband, SENATOR JOHN DONOVAN (Emmy and Golden Globe Award winner Jimmy Smits, “NYPD Blue,” “The West Wing”), in his campaign for President of the United States. Decades of sleepless nights and missed anniversaries landed her at the top. With the White House within their grasp, can she truly embrace a new role as First Lady? Or will her love of the action draw her back in? Together, in this fast-paced thrill ride, Carter and Ingram uncover a sophisticated terrorist network that will force them to ask: “Who can we trust?” As they battle Bin-Khalid’s devotees, they are forced to confront their own identities, families and pasts.
