24: More Jack Bauer: Kiefer Re-Ups for 3 Years, $40M

Guess he won't be pulling an Edgar this year. Kiefer has signed on for three more years of the show for around $40 million, according to Reuters/Hollywood Reporter.

Under the pact, Sutherland also will be elevated from a co-executive producer to executive producer on "24" next season alongside Joel Surnow, Robert Cochran, Howard Gordon and Evan Katz.

The development portion of the deal is said to include overhead and a development fund for Sutherland's company. Sutherland will hire a development executive and will begin to develop and executive produce projects for television as well the Internet and wireless devices.

One thing to keep in mind, however, is that the show has only been picked up for one more year. Chances are we'll hear an announcement about this soon, but kind of funny they timed it as they did. -- Jason Unger
