Adapted from the best selling historical novel by Robert Littell, and from the makers of Gladiator and the Da Vinci Code, THE COMPANY is a gripping and high-powered mini series available to own on DVD on 10th December courtesy of Playback. With an all star cast headed up by Chris O'Donnell (Scent of a Woman, Batman & Robin), Alfred Molina (The Da Vinci Code, Spiderman 2), Michael Keaton (Batman, Beetlejuice) and Natascha McElhone (Solaris, The Truman Show), THE COMPANY is a story of espionage, secrets and betrayal during the Cold War.

This epic action thriller is created by Oscar® nominated Ridley Scott (Gladiator, Blade Runner) and Tony Scott (The Da Vinci Code), and directed by Emmy ® winner Mikael Salomon (Band Of Brothers). It traces CIA activities over a 50 year period, from the early 1950s in a divided Berlin, the Hungarian Revolution of 1956, the Bay of Pigs debacle in the 1960s through to the demise of the Soviet Union in 1991, as told from the perspective of the soldiers involved: the spies of the CIA and KGB. CIA organised assassinations, covert wars, kidnappings and toppling of legitimate governments speckled with facts and real life characters make up the emotionally charged drama. Behind every manoeuvre and counter-manoeuvre one question spans throughout… who is the mole within the CIA?

The action packed events unfold over a three-night period, each night depicting its own unique tone. Night 1 is set in the early years of the CIA during the Cold War as a tense espionage thriller based on the streets of East and West Berlin, where the cat and mouse games between the CIA and the KGB unfold. Night 2 is an action thriller, with the principal focus positioned on two violent and tragic events: the Hungarian uprising of 1956, which was quashed by massive Soviet involvement, and the Bay of Pigs, in which Cuban rebels attempted to oust Castro from power. The final night is a complex psychological thriller, with the CIA desperately searching within its own ranks for a KGB mole that has been undermining CIA missions for decades.
