Los Angeles: Actor Kiefer Sutherland will make a guest appearance in the spin-off of TV series "24".
The 48-year-old actor will be making few appearances as Counter Terrorist Unit operative Jack Bauer during the season, reported Entertainment Weekly.
Executive producer Howard Gordon confirmed media reports that franchise veterans Manny Coto and Evan Katz are working on a spin-off of "24", with a new male lead at the centre of the series.
According to Gordon, the proposed spin-off will pair this agent with an older, experienced female partner for an entirely new adventure.
Even though planned as a one-off event like the "Live Another Day miniseries", Gordon hinted that the Sarnoff could grow into a long-running series.
Fox chairman and CEO Gary Newman has previously revealed that his network was in the "early" stages of creating a spin-off to the main "24" programme.
