More On 24: Exile

Fox's press release reveals a few more details about this fall's exciting 24 TV movie prequel to January's Season 7. The previously mentioned "creator's cut" on the DVD will apparently run ten minutes longer than the televised version. And that "first act" of Season 7 amounts to the first sixteen minutes of the season premiere. Furthermore, they've confirmed that Exile was shot on location in South Africa (a first for 24) and even provided some pictures! They also reveal that in the four years following the tragic finale of Season 6, Jack Bauer has lost himself in "missionary work" in Africa. Can you picture Jack Bauer as a missionary? Missionaries don't usually torture people, do they? And they're probably not supposed to say "Damn it!" as much as Jack does...
