Fox has swung the axe on spinoff 24: Legacy
The network will instead explore future iterations of the long-running espionage drama built around the real-time storytelling format.
While receiving initial critical acclaim, 24: Legacy struggled to pull in the ratings which has seen producers - including Howard Gordon and Evan Katz - hard at work on a format shakeup to revitalise the series which originally began in 2001.
