Written by Ken Nolan (Black Hawk Down), the series
is being directed by Mikael Salomon (Rome, Band of Brothers) and produced by
director Ridley Scott's Scott Free Productions with Sony for TNT.

The six x 60-minute series stars Hollywood actor Chris O'Donnell as Jack McAuliffe, the
fictional hero caught in the dark underside of the American Intelligence community.

The story, which spans a 30-year period from the Cold War to the first
Gulf War, includes both genuine events and characters.

The Company's stellar cast also includes Alfred Molina, Michael Keaton, Alessandro
Nivola, Natasha McElhone and Tom Hollander.

wonderful cast, great production talent and is a perfect complement to our own 麻豆社
dramas. It promises to be a nail-biting watch."

Alchemy's Nick Witkowski said: "We are thrilled that The Company, which should
prove to be the event mini-series of 2007, will be shown on the 麻豆社 which will
guarantee it will get the audience and attention it deserves. We are also delighted
to be in business with the 麻豆社 and hope to deliver more event titles in the future."
