The tapping of Voight marks the first A-list villain casting on "24" since Season 1 when Dennis Hopper appeared in the final episodes as Serbian nationalist Victor Drazen.
James Cromwell isn't A-List ?

ai ya near close if he's not.
From Wiki :
"James Oliver Cromwell (born January 27, 1940), sometimes credited as Jamie Cromwell, is an American film and television actor. He has been nominated for an Oscar, two Emmy Awards, and four Screen Actors Guild Awards during his career. He is known for his appearance as the villainous Phillip Bauer on 24 (TV series)."
I'd posit he's more "A-Listy" than Jon Voight
( although Mr Voight *does* have an Oscar ...... )

Question: I know it's only been a week, but any news on the Veronica Mars movie? -- Robin
Ausiello: Actually, yes! Contrary to speculation, Mars 2.0 would likely find Veronica battling crime in college rather than on the government's payroll. "The FBI scenario was more of a 'What if...?' aimed at getting us a fourth season [before the show was canceled]," Mars boss Rob Thomas tells me. "I would want to bring back our key players, and it would be tough to believe that the FBI stationed Veronica in Neptune." No arguments on this end!

Entertainment Weekly reports that "24" is shutting down production for more than three weeks because showrunner Howard Gordon isn't happy with the scripting for the last six hours of Jack Bauer's day.
The plan, which will not delay the airing of any season-7 episodes, is to toss out the script for 7.19 and take the season into a more promising direction.
"The only, only, only concern at all is getting it right," Gordon tells EW. "Our feeling was this: We're so happy with what we've done so far, and to the extent that we had that luxury [of time], we said, 'Why not make it as good as we could?'"
Following a 19-month layoff, new episodes of "24" return to Fox in January.

The New Season of "24" Rocks

RUSH: Ladies and gentlemen, as a powerful, influential member of the media, I, of course, have access to things that other people do not, and I recently received the first four episodes of the new season, season seven, of "24," which premieres on Sunday, two hours on Sunday, two hours on Monday, a total of four hours. I watched these four episodes. Everybody thought last season kinda slacked off a little bit, and then we had the writer strike, so we went a whole year, a whole TV season without "24." It's back, and I have to tell you, it is stupendous, it is so good. I'll just tell you how it opens. It opens with a bunch of pontificating, pompous buffoons of a Senate committee interrogating Jack Bauer, trying to put him in jail for torture, and then all hell breaks loose, and that's as far as I'm going to go. But it is just tremendous. Some of you who thought that "24" kinda lost its focus and direction in the last season, you will say "24" is back. And, by the way, there is no CTU. There is a new Chloe, even though Chloe is still in this one. There's two Chloes. But it opens in Washington. Most of the first action takes place in Washington, not in California. It's well, well worth your time. I also received, as a special bonus, a Jack Bauer action figure doll in a jail breaking out or some sort of a wire enclosure. I'm going to send it to one of my nieces or nephews and let them tear it up in ten minutes, but, anyway, it's well worth your time.

Review: After a Long Bauer Outage, 24 Returns for a New Day
http://www.tvguide.com/News/Review-24-Returns-1001381.aspx (http://www.tvguide.com/News/Review-24-Returns-1001381.aspx)
"Don't expect me to regret the decisions I have made. Because, sir, the truth is I don't."
So growls former CTU agent Jack Bauer to a Senate committee, as he is asked to defend the "extreme" measures he has gone to in the name of saving the United States (if not in some cases the free world) from peril a half-dozen times over some 12 on-screen years.
At the thyme that preview scene first made the rounds — well over a year ago, before 24's seventh season got sidelined by the WGA strike — the big question concerned the reveal that the "late" Tony Almeida was the new baddie. But with the Fox series having been off the air since May 2007, the larger issue now is: Will Season 7 be worth the wait?
Is Jack's next very bad day better than his previous one? Can 24 bounce back from its widely dissed Season 6?
With CTU now disbanded, Jack "on trial" for his sins and Tony back in the mix, the new season starts off with much promise. Almost immediately, Jack is yanked away from his showdown with the Senate to consult on a terror threat spearheaded by his former colleague. The FBI wants Jack's help in tracking down Almeida, but only if Bauer can dial down his hardcore approach to "interviewing" suspects.
Right there, you have the foundation for an interesting twist on the 24 formula — Jack as a "hands-off" superspy. [spoiler]Too soon, however, Jack's new "partner," FBI agent Renee Walker (Annie Wersching), reluctantly agrees to look away as he employs a pen in procuring crucial intel from a goon.[/spoiler]
Similarly, the "absence" of CTU is barely felt, since the FBI's crack team of analysts and socket monkeys is at Bauer's disposal. Wersching makes for a credible Fed, while Jeffrey Nordling plays her by-the-book superior. (Nordling thus also fills the roles of Guy Who Will Be Wrong Every Step of the Way and Suspected Terrorist Mole No. 1.) Also new to the crime-fighting scene are Janeane Garafolo (as the FBI's reasonable facsimile of Chloe) and Rhys Coiro (who, with both his hair and voice toned down, is nearly unrecognizable from his run as Entourage's obnoxious Billy Walsh).
Of course, when there's terror on U.S. soil, you have a White House in panic. Populating 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. this season are Cherry Jones (as Allison Taylor, the commanding new POTUS), Colm Feore (as a First Gentleman thoroughly distracted by a family death/mystery/B-story) and Ethan Kanin (as the Chief of Staff). Barely 100 days into her first term, President Taylor is faced with a dire dilemma — squelch an African genocide being led by General Juma (Tony Todd, first introduced in November's 24: Redemption TV movie) or turn a blind eye in exchange for something the U.S. desperately wants.
All of which brings us back to Tony Almeida. (I'll let the show explain away his "resurrection.") It turns out that the onetime CTU agent grew thoroughly disenchanted with the United States when President Logan was punished with a mere house arrest after, among many treasonous evils, ordering a "hit" that killed Tony's wife, Michelle. As Jack concocts a plan to pull the plug on the sinister scheme being carried out by his old friend, he ultimately will tap into familiar resources — one named Chloe; the other, Bill. Thanks to his rogue tactics, Jack also becomes persona non grata to his government. Yet again.
Based on 24's first four hours, Jack's fresh Washington, D.C., playground is perhaps the only thing that is truly new here. But maybe change isn't always a good thing. And even if it is, perhaps Redemption sated any appetite to see Jack kick ass in a foreign land. Adhering to the belief (irrefutable fact?) that no day can be as plodding as No. 6, I'm more than willing to see where 24's latest one takes us.
As for the new 24, wouldn't it be cool if they did reverse the roles and make him a terrorist so that we could empathize with that sort?
Nah. Hollywood's far too conservative for anything like that ...
That was called "Red Dawn"

TV Review: 24
http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hr/tv-reviews/tv-review-24-1003928164.story (http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hr/tv-reviews/tv-review-24-1003928164.story)
Bottom Line: Welcome back, Jack, and don't you go away no more.
And so it returns, at last. God may have rested on the seventh day, but Jack Bauer will receive no such luxury.
Then again, one could make the point that he already got his time off for bad behavior, though the hiatus was unplanned. The seventh season of "24" took a year-plus to get here as a consequence of the WGA strike. A two-hour appetite-whetter entitled "24: Redemption," labeled a prequel, aired in November. But in the main, the show has been gone since May 2007.
And considering the jump-the-shark/nuke-the-fridge pronouncements that accompanied Season 6, the clamor for the "24" return has been notably absent.
The good news is that the now customary two-night, four-hour kickoff finds the series returning to its heart-in-your-throat best, replete with old villains, intricate conspiracies, moral quandaries and political intrigue. What easily could have devolved into self-parody has again become a riveting thriller that hits the ground sprinting. Of course, that also was the case at the beginning of the sixth season, and it didn't last, so we'll have to see if "24" can avoid the dreaded March and April qualitative blues this time around.
Things kick off with former Counter Terrorism Unit badass Bauer (Kiefer Sutherland) in court, his beloved CTU having been disbanded; now he's forced to answer for his excesses before a Senate subcommittee. He sits there essentially justifying his torture techniques. But it won't be long before Bauer is pressed back into service.
A scientist has been kidnapped, and the nation's air travel is suddenly under siege (sound familiar?). Moreover, the threat is emanating from his longtime pal Tony Almeida (Carlos Bernard), thought to be in the ground but, well, this is "24," where the difference between life and death is measured in minutes. Pretty soon, Jack is having to play more or less by the rules with an FBI agent (Annie Wersching) while the president (Cherry Jones) faces off with a Mugabe-like African dictator.
Through the first four hours, the twists and turns and squirms fly around with the usual swiftness as the clock ominously ticks ever forward. One of these days, you've got to figure that poor Jack will wind up spending all 24 hours in therapy. I mean, how is this guy able to still function at all? Fortunately for the audience, the show on which he struggles to save the republic is back on track after a season of misdirection followed by a year away.
But as the series is called "24" rather than "4," it's next week when the real creative challenge begins.
24
http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,20250561,00.html (http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,20250561,00.html)
November's TV movie 24: Redemption found Kiefer Sutherland's Jack Bauer a chastened man. Helping
orphans in Africa, he was hoarse not for the usual reason (barking orders), but from asking his Inner Good Guy for forgiveness for his CTU-agent sins.
On 24's long-awaited Day 7, Jack has
returned to the States to face a congressional committee on charges of torture. Quixotic old Jack — he now says he has no regrets about his previous actions. Such heroic flip-flopping comes in handy when dishy FBI agent Renee Walker (Annie Wersching) yanks him out
of his hearing to help pursue villains with ties to Redemption's African terroristic regime. These include Carlos Bernard's Tony
Almeida, long thought dead by perhaps
only one 24 fan in the universe. (That would be Jack.) Everyone, good and bad guys,
is racing around trying either to protect or take control of a ''CIP firewall,'' some dealio that protects a lotta government info.
Er, okay. Whatever. Just as long as the action kicks into gear with a minimum of ridiculous plot-twisting — unlike most of Day 6. Fresh characters like Agent Walker and the new president, Allison Taylor (a brisk Cherry Jones), mingle nicely with familiar faces like...oh, if I told you, the whining spoiler-phobes would howl. Let's just say that after the two-night, four-hour season premiere, Jack will have [spoiler]threatened to jab a Bic pen into a bad guy's eardrum, and you'll feel the warm glow of sadistic glee that signals a jolly good start for vintage 24 mayhem.[/spoiler] B+
24
http://www.variety.com/review/VE1117939293.html?categoryid=32&cs=1 (http://www.variety.com/review/VE1117939293.html?categoryid=32&cs=1)
After a subpar "day" followed by a strike-fueled hiatus, "24" gets solidly back to basics -- if by "basics" that means high-tech terrorist threats, shadowy government conspiracies, steely (and demographically historic) presidents facing terrible moral quandaries, the welcome return of familiar faces, and even rumination on the ethics of torture. Jack Bauer has already suffered aplenty for our sins, but the hero born coincidentally in Sept. 11's wake will improbably survive the Bush administration -- and if this level of quality can persist, perhaps well beyond.
That "if" about sustaining quality is no small disclaimer, of course, given the show's tendency to start like gangbusters, drift into the spring and rally (or in the case of "Day Six," not) down the home stretch. Again sandwiched into two nights to tantalize the playoff-football crowd, the first four hours begin with former Counter-Terrorism Unit agent Jack (Kiefer Sutherland) addressing a Senate subcommittee, with CTU disbanded and the new Commander in Chief (Cherry Jones) contemplating military action against a ruthless African dictator.
Soon, however, a terrible threat affecting airline travel arises, drawing Jack back into an operation that appears to involve old pal Tony Almeida (Carlos Bernard), who has made a Lazarus-like recovery. This puts Jack into contact with an FBI agent (credibly played by Annie Wersching) who, despite her commitment to follow the rules, must now deal with the same kind of tough ticking-clock choices Bauer tackled in the past.
As if to acknowledge the show's status as a political Rorschach test, these episodes reflect ambivalence about the depths to which the government should go in the battle to thwart terrorism, with Jack first offering a full-throated defense of torture and later suggesting the debate over what's permissible -- carried out in secret -- should be brought into the light of day.
Politics aside, the series still mostly works as a thriller -- impeccably produced by its veteran technical crew. The problem has been maintaining the edge-of-your-seat momentum without drifting into inane flourishes somewhere around hours eight through 15, which remains a legitimate Day Seven concern.
The series also might telegraph some of this year's twists simply by virtue of its casting, including a few supporting players who are likely more than they appear, based strictly on their talent or, in one case, a history of playing memorable heavies. Even so, there are several kick-ass moments during the first two nights, highlighted by what amounts to a nerd battle of wits that's almost like two sorcerers locked in combat.
For those still smarting from Day Six's Shakespearean excesses, "24" seems to be back on track -- and, paired with "House," might even enjoy something that approximates a ratings lead-in when it finally goes up against a "Heroes" franchise whose powers are seriously diminished.
Whatever its flaws, this edition of "24" features smart, crisp and densely woven storytelling whose subplots look to be on a well-orchestrated collision course.
Now let's just hope they can keep that up.

Barack Obama 'kidnaps' 24 hero Jack Bauer
US conservatives claim that the 24 character Jack Bauer has been 'kidnapped' by the new liberal agenda of President-Elect Barack Obama.
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/barackobama/4213789/Barack-Obama-kidnaps-24-hero-Jack-Bauer.html (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/barackobama/4213789/Barack-Obama-kidnaps-24-hero-Jack-Bauer.html)
As the hero of the television action series, Bauer became a modern icon of rugged American values and a fictional flag waver for the Bush administration's determination to defeat terrorists.
The intelligence agent, played by Keifer Sutherland, has never been afraid to torture or shoot to kill while tackling villainous foreigners intent on waging war on the American homeland.
But now US conservatives are up in arms that the election of President-Elect Barack Obama has led the show's producers to pander to the liberal consensus in Hollywood, which they claim has led to the blacklisting of those who disagree with their anti-war views.
When the series returns for its seventh season on Sunday night, Bauer will mouth the views of Mr Obama, who has vowed to end "enhanced interrogation", also known as torture, and close the Guantanamo Bay detention camp.
And in an apparent bid to get in tune with the new president, the new season opens with Bauer facing a congressional investigation probing his use of torture and summary executions in previous series. "It's better that everything comes out in the open," Bauer says, echoing Democrat demands for greater transparency over US counter-terrorist tactics.
"We've done so many things in the name of protecting this country, we've created two worlds. Ours and the people's we've promised to protect. They deserve to hear the truth and decide how far they want to let us go."
The transformation of Bauer has left the American Right fuming.
"It's clearly a sign the producers are trying to adapt to a new political reality," said the conservative commentator Christian Toto.
"That approach might generate a few new fans, but it could turn off those who saw 24 as that rare Hollywood product that took the threat of terrorism seriously - and didn't feel the need to rationalise taking extreme measures to protect the innocent."
The capture of Bauer by the Hollywood's liberal elite comes as conservatives in the entertainment industry are complaining that their support for the war in Iraq has made them victims of a Left-wing witch hunt.
A new book by an Oscar-nominated screenwriter, published later this month, claims that those with conservative views are victims of an informal blacklist, like the McCarthy-era ban on communist sympathisers in Hollywood during the 1950s.
Roger Simon, who penned the scripts to Enemies: A Love Story and Scenes From a Mall, said that those who oppose the liberal anti-war consensus in Hollywood have been ostracised by the major studios and television networks.
In his book Blacklisting Myself: Memoir of a Hollywood Apostate in the Age of Terror, Simon writes: "I am sure this new form of the blacklist exists, but not nearly to the formalised extent of the original list of the Forties and Fifties with its dramatic hearings in front of the House Un-American Activities Committee."
He says the new blacklist "operates through an almost invisible thought control" in which writers, actors and directors who refuse to join in the chorus of condemnation against President George W. Bush and his wars faced career death over the last eight years.
He claims anyone voicing support for the war "would be dismissed as a fool, a warmonger, or a right-wing nut (all three, probably) and therefore have had little or no chance at the writing or directing job that brought you there."
Conservative actors are few and far between. Only the Die Hard star Bruce Willis, Kelsey Grammer of Frasier fame and the Oscar winners Jon Voight and Robert Duvall have any real clout.
When the novelist and film director Michael Crichton, the creator of Jurassic Park, died on the day Mr Obama was elected, his passing received little publicity, conservatives claim, because he wrote a thriller questioning the liberal consensus on global warming.
Even Arnold Schwarznegger, the former film star and Republican Governor of California is seen as a captive of the Left because of his liberal environmental policies.
But some conservatives are fighting back. Last week activists in the entertainment industry launched a new website to rally support from conservative voters for films and television programmes that reflect their values.
They believe that the recent glut of anti-war films that bombed at the box office - including Rendition, which starred Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal; In the Valley of Elah, featuring Tommy Lee Jones and Charlize Theron and Lambs for Lions, Robert Redford's political drama with Tom Cruise and Meryl Streep - are proof that Hollywood is out of touch with the American public.
Andrew Breitbart, the founder of the new Hollywood site, issued a call to arms: "Until conservatives, libertarians and Republicans - who will be the lion's share of Big Hollywood's contributors - recognise that (pop) culture is the big prize and that politics is secondary, there will be no victory in this important battle."
Michael Wilson, director of the documentary Michael Moore Hates America, said Hollywood and grassroots conservatives need to fight harder to "impart their ideas into pop culture" by putting up the money for films that hide a conservative message in a popular format.
He said: "Hollywood doesn't like us. They don't like our pro-American, pro-liberty, self-interested way of life, and they certainly don't think our ideas would work on film.
"The trick to transforming the very real liberal bias in Hollywood is to change the formula that Hollywood uses by finding and financing films and television projects that engage people emotionally first and speak to ideology second."

The Big Twists are back, and so are the impossible choices.
After 2007's underwhelming family-fueled sixth season and last November's mediocre "Redemption" TV-movie, "24" comes roaring back tonight and tomorrow with four exciting and engrossing hours that place Jack Bauer among a crew of D.C.-based FBI strangers wary (if sometimes admiring) of his by-any-means-necessary reputation.
===================================
The Boston Herald says:
"... feels like a mash-up of all the boring parts of seasons past, minus, of course, that nuclear bomb that hit California. Viewers will be checking their own clocks, waiting for this slog to end."

Only one more series for TV show 24
Kiefer Sutherland's hit series given end date

Hit US TV show 24, which stars Kiefer Sutherland as terrorist hunter Jack Bauer, is to stop after 8 seasons.
Kiefer, 42, has warned fans that there might not be a happy ending for his character.
'I see Jack as a really human figure and there is something innately tragic about people,' he admits.
'I think there is no winning. We're all going to die. There's something really sad in that, and yet there's something really beautiful and hopeful.'
Producers have hinted that a movie will tie up all the loose ends once the show finishes.
