24: Legacy is an American television series created by Manny Coto and Evan Katz that aired on Fox network from February 5 to April 17, 2017. The series is a spin-off of 24 which was created by Joel Surnow and Robert Cochran and its premiere served as the lead-out program for Super Bowl LI before moving to its regular time slot of Monday at 8:00 p.m.[5] The series' premiere was watched by 17.6 million people, the lowest post-Super Bowl program viewership since 2003's Alias but the most viewed episode in the franchise's history.[6]
Consisting of 12 episodes, the show follows the life of war hero and ex-United States Army Ranger Sergeant Eric Carter (Corey Hawkins) using real time method of narration.[7] Miranda Otto plays Rebecca Ingram, the former National Director of the now revived Counter Terrorist Unit in Washington, D.C.[8] Set three years after the events of 24: Live Another Day, it adheres to the real time concept of covering the events of a 24-hour period and begins and ends at 12:00 pm. However, like Live Another Day, there is a 12-hour time jump within the final episode.
In June 2017, Fox announced that the series was cancelled. At the time, Fox had plans to develop a new incarnation of the 24 franchise.[9] Those plans were later cancelled.[10][11]
