FOX has unveiled the first look at Corey Hawkins on the "24" reboot series, "24: Legacy". The "Straight Outta Compton" actor is featured striking a pose that will remind fans of Kiefer Sutherland's Jack Bauer in a promo photo for the original series.

Hawkins will portray Carter, a strong and smart man with a troubled past who turned his life around in the Army Rangers, becoming a military hero. After settling with his wife Nicole in Virginia, Carter's past comes back to haunt him and he's pulled back into action. He eventually asks CTU for help saving his life and stopping what potentially could be one of the largest-scale terror attacks on American soil.

Miranda Otto is cast as Rebecca, former head of the CTU. Jimmy Smits plays a powerful U.S. senator who is also Rebecca's husband, Anna Diop stars as Eric's wife Nicole, Teddy Sears portrays Keith, the new head of the CTU, Dan Bucatinsky and Carol Pena star as communication analysts at the CTU, and Charlie Hofheimer is cast as Eric's former Army Rangers partner who is now suffering from PTSD.

Manny Coto and Evan Katz will pen the script and serve as executive producers along with Teakwood Lane's Howard Gordon, Imagine TV's Brian Grazer and Sutherland. Stephen Hopkins directs the pilot.
