Some of the actors in attendance were Sarah Clarke (Nina Myers), Leslie Hope (Teri Bauer), Dennis Haysbert (David Palmer), Penny Johnson Jerald (Sherry Palmer), Kiefer Sutherland (Jack Bauer), Jon Voight (Jonas Hodges), Jeffrey Nordling (Larry Moss), James P Morrison (Bill Buchanan), Kim Raver (Audrey Raines), John Boyd (Arlo Glass), Anil Kapoor (Omar Hassan), Annie Wersching (Renee Walker), Mary Lynn Rajskub (Chloe O’Brian), Carlos Bernard (Tony Almeida), Chad Lowe (Reed Pollock), and former director Jon Cassar.

Question: Now that Renee has been killed off in 24, is there a chance of Audrey returning for the 24 movie? —Patty
Ausiello: Yes, there’s a chance. “Any character who is still alive has been discussed and is being considered,” says exec producer Howard Gordon. “But I’m not ready to disclose any names because it could change.”Question: Any chance Kim will return for the big 24 finale? —Charlie
Ausiello: No. According to e.p. Howard Gordon, “Once upon a time she was [going to be in the finale], but we went in a different direction. The story took on a darker hue that didn’t include her.”
Not really sure what Howard is trying to pull here considering he already said Audrey Raines would remain an “unresolved” mystery just two weeks ago (to Ausiello himself even – how could they both forget so quickly?). I guess after Gordon pissed off the Renee fans this week, he’s trying to damage control and woo back the Audrey crowd by giving them false hope she could return. I find it amusing that Howard pretends things “could change” when the finale has already been written and filmed completely. Heh, my mistake – Gordon was talking about the movie here. Doh!
And I’m pretty angry at Howard Gordon’s Kim Bauer response, personally. Long-time fans, did you ever expect that Jack’s daughter would be completely left out of the series finale? Kim’s not dead or anything, just left out. Not even a short phone call split-screen. It was bad enough that Bauer loses his love interest (AGAIN) but now we get cheated out of a final Jack/Kim scene too. Seems like Bauer can’t have romance nor a family – give the guy a break once!

Question: Since this is the last season of 24, I need some scoop. — Shannon
Ausiello: Fans hoping for a Jack/Audrey reunion are out of luck. Although exec producer Howard Gordon admits he’s “personally curious” about what happened to Audrey, he says the fate of Kim Raver’s bedridden character will remain one of the show’s “unresolved” mysteries.

In the 8/21 issue of Entertainment Weekly, writer and executive producer Evan Katz gives the scoop on Audrey Raines and the future of 24.
No Audrey Raines
With Fox president Kevin Reilly recently hinting that the coming season of 24 may turn out to be its last, longtime fans are counting down the days to a Jack-Audrey reunion. Unfortunately, exec producer Evan Katz says a series-ending story has already been hatched in the event 24 clocks out for good next May – and it doesn’t involve Kiefer Sutherland’s Jack reconnecting with his former love (played by Kim Raver), who lapsed into a catatonic state at the end of Day 6. “Some of the things we’re doing this season preclude [her returning],” he reveals. “So, I think not.”
