Jon Voight has joined the cast of
24 for the upcoming seventh season of the Emmy-winning Fox drama.
According to
The Hollywood Reporter, Voight will play Jack Bauer's (Kiefer Sutherland) uber-nemesis who is pulling the strings behind next season's terrorist threat.
The character will be introduced during
24's two-hour Season 7 prequel and will be featured heavily in the latter half of the season.
The prequel, now shooting on location in South Africa, is slated to air Nov. 23, with Season 7 of the Imagine TV/20th TV-produced series kicking off in January.
Voight marks the first A-list villain casting on
24 since Season 1 when Dennis Hopper appeared in the final episodes as Serbian nationalist Victor Drazen.
