00:00Hi Kiefer, how are you doing?

00:01Good, how are you?

00:01Nice to see you, you look really smart.

00:03Thank you very much.

00:04Listen, on a scale of one to Mariah Carey, how festive would you say you are?

00:09I'm pretty festive, yeah.

00:11I think what Christmas represents and its potential is bringing together family and friends.

00:18And so, yeah, so I'm, you know, I always enjoy that time of year.

00:23And I think everybody has so much hope around Christmas, and so I love that.

00:28And I love this film, I love the fact that we're seeing the panto.

00:31I mean, it's such a big thing for us here in the UK.

00:34How much did you know about pantos before you?

00:36I thought I knew a little bit, but I didn't.

00:39You know, and so it was a real, it was a wonderful experience.

00:42Kind of, we did a production of Cinderella within the context of our film.

00:45We performed that for an audience.

00:47And so the call and response between the audience and the players on stage, I really adored that.

00:52I thought that was a lot of fun, breaking down that kind of, that fifth wall, if you will.

00:57And so it's, it's, yeah, I just enjoyed it.

01:00Do you think you'd be partial to a panto now?

01:02Do you think you would, you would do one now?

01:04Well, now that I realize, you know, almost 90% of it is just willingness to be silly.

01:10Yeah, once you let go of that, then I think it's quite enjoyable.

01:14So you never know.

01:14And I heard this movie was built off the back of Greggs.

01:17Is this true?

01:18Um, I don't know about that, but, you know, the hero for a day moment that I had was when

01:24I organized the Greggs van to come, uh, and, and take care of the crew and the cast.

01:29You did that?

01:30Yeah, and so, so that made me a hero for a day.

01:34Always a hero.

01:35Listen, I have to say, Pete behind the camera here is a massive 24 fan.

01:39Oh, thank you, brother.

01:40He's obsessed with, um, Jack Bauer.

01:42Is there anything new on the developments of him coming back?

01:45Yeah, Howard Gordon, who is the lead writer for 24 for the years that I was there, along

01:51with Joel Cernow, uh, um, Howard come up with something that I think is a really credible

01:57idea.

01:58I think it's really smart, and I think it's interesting, and it, uh, would be an effort

02:01to kind of resolve the story of Jack Bauer, and so we'll see what happens.

02:05It gets passed on, and then, uh, then it has to go through corporate kind of progression

02:12to be approved, and we'll see what happens.

02:13Can you imagine, like, a Jack Bauer panto, how fun would that be?

02:17I think it would be explosive.

02:18It would be, wouldn't it?

02:19This is so great to see you.

02:21Thank you so much.

02:21Lovely to meet you.

02:22Absolute pleasure.

02:24Aw.
