Abili Sets August UK Premiere Date For ‘The Company You Keep’ Starring Milo Ventimiglia & Catherine Haena Kim

by Dave Elliott

UKTV’s Alibi channel has set an August UK premiere date for The Company You Keep, starring Milo Ventimiglia & Catherine Haena Kim.

The drama follows a night of passion that leads to love between con man Charlie and undercover CIA officer Emma, who are unknowingly on a collision course professionally…

Milo Ventimiglia (This is Us, Gilmore Girls, Heroes) plays Charlie Nicoletti, a con artist from a crime family that owns a Baltimore bar as a front. Emma Hill (Catherine Haena Kim – Ballers, FBI) is an undercover CIA agent. Her partner, Kevin, has been having an affair right under her nose. The series is based on the successful Korean drama ‘My Fellow Citizens’.

In the opening episode, Charlie and Emma meet at the bar of a luxury hotel and bond immediately. They flirtatiously banter and play coy about what each does for a living, then proceed to have a weekend of passion and intimacy.

While Charlie ramps up the ‘family business’ so he can get out for good, Emma’s closing in on the vengeful criminal who holds Charlie’s family debts in hand — forcing them to reckon with the lies they’ve told so they can save themselves and their families from disastrous consequences.

The series also stars William Fichtner as Leo, Tim Chiou as David, Freda Foh Shen as Grace, James Saito as Joseph, Sarah Wayne Callies as Birdie, Felisha Terrell as Daphne and Polly Draper as Fran.

Executive producers and co-showrunners are Julia Cohen and Phil Klemmer, Milo Ventimiglia and Russ Cundiff (DiVide Pictures), Jon M. Chu and Caitlin Foito (Electric Somewhere), Todd Harthan and Lindsay Goffman (Gratitude Productions). Deanna Harris (DiVide Pictures) is a producer.

We should point out, don’t get too attached as this show only ran for one season before its US broadcaster, ABC, cancelled it. The series was picked up as a summer filler show for Alibi in the UK.

The Company You Keep‘ premieres Tuesday, 6th August 2024 at 9pm on Alibi in the UK, with all episodes available on demand via Sky, Virgin Media, and NOW streaming service.
