And that's another one for the cast of the upcoming (and New York-bound) season of 24.  Actor Clayne Crawford has signed on to star as man who's played a significant part in the past of CTU analyst Dana Walsh, to be played by Katee Sackhoff.  The catch?  Dana's past has been played up quite a handful of times, as something that she's bent to hide.


Crawford has appeared in numerous films, such as Swimfan, A Song for Bobby Long and The Great Raid.  He also held a recurring role in the television series Jericho, as well as guest roles in Roswell, Life, Cold Case, and most recently, CSI.  He recently wrapped up production for the film Smokin' Aces: Blowback.

And so begins another rundown of the new cast of 24 so far: Crawford as that (currently nameless) character; Sackhoff as Dana; Freddie Prinze Jr. as CTU field-ops head Cole Ortiz--it seems they changed the name from the original Davis Cole, judging from Fox's press released issued weeks ago; John Boyd as CTU systems analyst Arlo Glass; Mykelti Williamson as CTU head Brian Hastings; John Diamantopoulos as new White House chief of staff Rob Weiss; Jennifer Westfeldt as ambitious journo Meredith Reed; and, of course, Anil Kapoor as Middle Eastern politician Omar Hassan.

And, of course, Kiefer Sutherland.  That adds another piece to the puzzle, then.
