This isn't official, but according to E!, Kiefer will return and the miniseries is definitely going forward.
I already mentioned a few posts ago that David Fury said on his Twitter feed it's 12 episodes.

The producers of Revolution thanks Fox for bringing back 24. It makes decisions on which actress to cast in their show much easier.

Re: 24 returning to FOX as a miniseries. Kiefer Sutherland in talks to star
When I first read the news last night, I thought 12 episodes would be an ideal number, so I'm glad to see conformation of it! With 12 episodes, each episode can cover 2 hours if the producers want to keep with the theme that each season covers one full day. Also, I'm guessing there would be less filler with only 12 episodes.
Do you think this is more likely to air in September 2013 or January/February 2014? If it airs in 2014, then Monday 9pm is probably out, since that's where The Following S2 will air, right?

Awesome! Hopefully the break will serve to reinvigorate the creative juices and we get a miniseries worth of the first couple of seasons of the show.

Best news I've heard in a long time, but like Arrested Development, I'll believe it when I see it (5/26!).

Hopefully a 12 hour season will allow them to focus on the main plot, instead of having Jack defeat the bad guy 2/3rds of the way through then deal with a microchip/recording/thumb drive for the final 6 episodes.

I still can't believe how fast this came together. Literally "24" hours ago, the continuation of this show existed only as a vague hope for a movie. Now this morning I guess it's a done deal? No fits & starts, no vague rumors and mumblings like with Arrested Development. It's amazing.

When this does get officially get going, it probably won't be ready until mid 2014.

Cool.. I agree with those that said this is much better than a movie. I've never gotten the excitement over TV show based feature films.. You're used to getting hours upon hours on the subject then blam the movie is like a two-part episode basically, even if it's a higher budget episode. Better than nothing but not that great when you've seen dozens to hundreds of episodes already.

I am wondering if this shows popularity overseas is the reason this happened. I seem to remember reading that when it aired, it was one of the top 5 shows worldwide.
