We’ve already got spoilers for ’24′ season 8.  Now we will continue in the off season to get bits and pieces of what’s coming up in the awesome, new season of ‘24‘.  I or one am totally pumped!

The news of today is that there area bunch of  new cast members that have signed on to be part of my favorite show!

“Kissing Jessica Stein” star Jennifer Westfeldt will play the recurring role of Meredith Reed, an ambitious journalist with ties to Arman Hashemi (Anil Kapoor), a Middle East leader who comes to the U.S. on a peacemaking mission.

Chris Diamantopoulos (The Starter Wife) is also on board!

John Boyd (“The Notorious Bettie Page”) will be a regular on the 20th TV/Imagine series, playing CTU systems analyst Jonah Schwartz.

Freddie Prinze Jr, a star of such films as She’s All That and two Scooby-Doos — where he played opposite lady love Sarah Michelle Gellar — and the short-lived sitcom Freddie, Prinze Jr. joins 24 as Davis Cole, a Marine who now heads up the resurrected CTU’s Field Ops division. In that role, Cole fancies himself the new Jack Bauer, says the Hollywood Reporter.

24 has trod this path before, introducing a strapping field agent (James Badge Dale’s Chase Edmunds, Ricky Schroder’s Mike Doyle) who ostensibly might one day relieve weary Jack and inherit the “Drop it!” mantle. Chase, though, dropped off the radar after losing his hand (and girlfriend Kim), while Mike had a bomb go off in his face (a manuever to one day be known as The Juliet).

Also joining 24 is Mumbai-born beauty Nazneen Contractor (CBC’s The Border), playing the daughter of Anil Kapoor’s Middle Eastern leader. Counting down to her untimely kidnapping in five… four… three… .

Production on this amazing show began yesterday.  I will now wait anxiously for the next tid bit of info to pass along to you guys!  It looks like this will be a very NEW cast!
