From Michael Ausielle and EW.com:

Question: What’s the latest on Elisha Cuthbert returning to 24? — Dominic
Ausiello: Ladies and gentleman, we’ve got a signed contract! Sources confirm to me exclusively that Cuthbert has inked a deal to reprise her role as Jack’s lightning rod of an offspring for a season-ending arc that will no doubt trigger a new round of wholly outdated and painfully unfunny cougar jokes. Per my 24 mole, Kim will return minus her old beau (sorry, C. Thomas Howell) and plus a child! That’s right, Kim’s got a little puma all her own!

————————–

I hope the writers don’t fuck up Kim’s storyline. Again. For the….wait I lost count.

GOD JUST DON’T SCREW IT UP. I like Kim, and I want to like her, but the writers need to know that when they bring her back…they had better mean business.
