Fox has released the first
trailer for 24: Legacy, the next evolution of the Emmy award-winning 24 series
starring Corey Hawkins, Miranda Otto, Jimmy Smits, Teddy Sears, Dan Bucatinsky, Anna
Diop, Ashley Thomas, Charlie Hofheimer, Coral Pena, and Sheila Vand.
The new series 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 (Hawkins), 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 (Otto), 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 (Smits),
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.
