LOS ANGELES - The producer of Fox TV’s “24” says his show’s new president, Cherry Jones, has undergone gall bladder surgery.
Series executive producer Howard Gordon told a Television Critics Association meeting Tuesday that the Tony Award-winning actress was unable to attend a “24” panel because of the surgery. He said Jones was in New York.
A call to her agent regarding her condition was not immediately returned.
Jones, 52, plays President Allison Taylor in the new season of the drama series starring Kiefer Sutherland as a counterterrorism agent. Jones’ other credits include the films “The Village” and “Ocean’s Twelve.” She won two best actress Tonys for “The Heiress” in 1995 and “Doubt” in 2005.
