Now that the new TV season has started I thought it would be interesting to take a look at where the 24 crew went after the series ended a few months ago. Fans that have watched the DVD bonus features probably know that the cast and crew were very close to each other, and that’s proven by this list – many of them chose to work together on future projects.
Dexter
Chip Johannessen became showrunner of Showtime’s hit series Dexter last December, and brought along some 24 crew with him including Manny Coto (writer and executive producer), director Milan Cheylov, costume designer Jim Lapidus, and the Emmy-winning David Latham (editor). One of his first orders of business was creating a new recurring character named FBI Agent Walker – nice! Also look out for Peter Weller (Christopher Henderson from Season 5) to show up soon as a recurring character.
I thought this was a pretty cute story and a creative way one of the directors worked around 24‘s limited budget.
What’s better than a book trailer, print advertising, billboards, or television spots for your book? One lucky writer landed a gigantic billboard on the set of the hit television show 24–exposing her book to millions of viewers during one of the final episodes of the popular action series.

24 Season 8 – starts to shoot today without me – the first time I’m not directing on the first day since season 1. Have a good one 24 crew.
Brad Turner is directing the first two episodes of 24 then Milan Cheylov will direct the next two. In very experienced hands.
Turner has been with the series since the third season and has directed 38 episodes total (ten in Season 7). Cheylov has directed four episodes in Season 7 and six total.
