Meet the New Boss…

by

Hello everyone!!! I know I’m doing this post really late tonight, but I got drafted for a family thing. Love those last minute plans, don’t you? Actually most of it was pretty nice. Anyway… I wanted to let y’all know about some more casting news that came out today. You know the drill- if you don’t wanna know any details, go no further!

Still with me? Good! Remember when I mentioned that CTU was going to get a new head honcho? His name is Brian Hastings and he’s described as a really sharp guy with some great credentials. I just have one question here: is he going to spend a lot of the ‘day’ fighting Jack on everything or is he going to be a more laid-back kinda boss?

No character is really complete without an actor, though, and 24 has now finally decided who is going to take on the part: Mykelti Willamson. Don’t know him? You’re likely wrong. He was in one of the most famous movies of the past couple of decades: Forrest Gump. He played the character Bubba, a fellow army man who ends up dying in the line of duty. I admit, I didn’t know the guy’s name either! Still, once I saw that credit, I knew exactly who he is and what he looks like. So what do you think about this? Are you like me and think he’s a great choice for the part? Are you not sure about casting choices on this show any more after a certain announcement was made? Comment and let me know! Take care!!

Here’s a clip of him from the movie, by the way, thanks to HaroldChanner:

    You ever been a real boss? Anyway, like I was sayin’, Bosses are the fruit of business. You have your hard boiled bosses, your steamed bosses, your sizzled bosses, your half baked bosses. Dey’s uh, tall bosses, short bosses, smart bosses, dumb bosses,hyper,calm,frantic, demanding bosses. There’s good bosses, bad bosses, idiotic bosses, loose, strict, fair and cheating bosses. That- that’s about it.
