Judy Davis Tapped for FOX Miniseries 24: LIVE ANOTHER DAY

TVGuide.com reports that Oscar nominee Judy Davis ("Husbands and Wives," "Life with Judy Garland: Me and My Shadows"), has been tapped to appear in a recurring role in the upcoming FOX legal miniseries 24: LIVE ANOTHER DAY.

According to the report, Davis will portray Margo, described as a "fierce German arms dealer." The miniseries television event, set to debut next spring, will star Kiefer Sutherland, Kim Raver, William Devane and Mary Lynn Rajskub, all cast members of the original series 24.

Originally premiering November 6, 2001, 24 was nominated for a total of 73 Emmy Awards, winning for Outstanding Drama Series in 2006. Over the course of eight seasons, and a two-hour telefilm, Sutherland garnered seven Emmy Award nominations and one win for Outstanding Lead Actor - Drama Series. While the series gained global recognition, Sutherland's portrayal of the legendary character penetrated the American psyche like no other dramatic television character to become part of the cultural lexicon.

24: LIVE ANOTHER DAY is a production of 20th Century FOX Television and Imagine Television in association with Teakwood Lane Productions. Howard Gordon, Brian Grazer and Kiefer Sutherland will executive produce, along with an additional team to be announced. The original series, which had its last American broadcast on May 24, 2010, was created by Joel Surnow and Robert Cochran.
