The original HAWAII FIVE-O was one of the most popular and long-running crime series in television history. In 2010, the most anticipated new drama premiered to more than 20 million viewers, captivating broad demographics with pulsating action, breathtaking cinematography, seductive, funny, and above all, talented all star cast.
HAWAII FIVE-0 was back, booking Monday night’s lead on CBS
Alex O’Loughlin commands the screen as lieutenant Steve McGarrett, Scott Caan as Danny Williams at his side full of self-deprecation, wit and reason. Daniel Dae Kim as Chin Ho Kelly grounds the force with heart, intellect and cultural understanding. Grace Park as Kono embodies the ideals of every aspiring ass-kicking, badge-wearing, wave-cutting, sexy woman. Supporting the 5-0 cast, Executive Producers Peter Lenkov, Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci assembled the most coveted acting credits on primetime, including Masi Oka, Terry O’Quinn, Mark Dacascos, Lauren German and Hawaii local, Taylor Wily, among numerous other leading actors whom have contributed to the new Hawaii Five-0.
Over the course of the first season, the cast battled criminals and corruption, betrayals and loss, while the show maintained an addictive balance of action, character drama, and story arcs. Notably, HAWAII FIVE-0 has dedicated its creative and production efforts to do justice for the demographics and traditions of its host culture, Hawaii, including a multi-cultural cast, integrated business brands, iconic landmarks and of course some requisite pidgin. In addition, the new 5-0 has reinvigorated Hawaii’s acting community by casting more than 60% of each episode with local talent.
This year, with Hawaii Five-0’s Season Two underway, HIFF is honored to present a unique panel discussion with the producers, cast, and select crew of the show. Panel attendees will engage in a rare Q&A session and leave with exclusive insight on what it takes to deliver network television’s leading drama.
