24 showrunner Howard Gordon has announced plans for a new series.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Gordon is producing a TV drama tentatively titled Patriots.

The project is based on the Israeli programme Prisoners of War that recently went off the air.

24 executive producer Alex Gansa has also boarded the project, along with Gideon Raff, the creator of the Israeli version.

The show will centre on three American soldiers who were thought lost during the Iraq War and reappear in a cave ten years later.

Gordon will most likely give up showrunning duties on 24 to focus on the new series.
