Kiefer Sutherland Wanted Jack Bauer To Get Killed Off 24

The actor first starred as the lead character, Jack Bauer, a counter terrorist officer when the TV show debuted in 2001, and has appeared in all nine seasons, the most recent of which (24: Live Another Day) aired in 2014.
Kiefer Sutherland as Jack Bauer
According to writer Howard Gordon, Kiefer Sutherland was determined to see his character get killed at the end of 24: Live Another Day. But despite the 49-year-old star’s determination to rule out his character, he was prevented by executives at Fox, the U.S. network who own the rights to 24 and by other people linked to the show, such as his own agent, however, Kiefer has been vocal about not wanting to return for another series of 24.

(Spoiler Alert)

At the end of 24: Live Another Day Jack’s fate was left undetermined after taking on Russian secret agents in London.

A new series of the show, titled 24: Legacy, is scheduled to air in 2017, let's hope that Kiefer return as Jack once more, at least to give his character a better ending without cliffhangers.

Daniel Fleetwood , a 32 years old young man,
suffers from a terminal cancer that has reached to 90% of his lungs. The film is scheduled to debut on December 18 , and fearing to not live enough to be at the premiere , a petition was created through the social networks.

The director , JJ Abrams, called Daniel on Wednesday to tell him that an unfinished version of the film would be forwarded and the next day he could see it at home with his wife, Ashley.

Sometimes our will can surpass barriers, and Daniel is without a single doubt a fighter.

Once more, may the force be with you, Daniel and Ashley and hang in there during this tough moment in your lives.

It's just over a month for the Star Wars fans finally watch the 7th episode of the saga. However, for Daniel Fleetwood, December 18 is a date that may be too out of reach for him. This Star Wars fan suffers from a rare cancer and in July the doctor told him he had just two more months of life . Daniel , who is 32 years old, has surpassed this prognosis, but says that given the way the disease has advanced, it's possible that we'll hardly live enough to see the new Star Wars on the date scheduled for it's premiere.

Then he appealed to let him watch Star Wars - The Force awakens before the premiere , even if supervised by someone. The call came to the social networks and on Twitter a lot of people shared a tweet to Disney to fulfill the wish of Daniel.

The appeal reached to some of the actors such as Mark Hamill ( Luke Skywalker ), and Carrie Fisher ( Princess Leia ) and they shared the tweet, just as the director JJ Abrams. However , the decision belongs to Disney.

From the part of Ark Of Dreams, hang in there Daniel, don't give up, have hope, and may the force be with you...
