Sharing first look images from the new CBC and BBC Northern Ireland romantic comedy series, Committed, starring Dustin Milligan (Schitt’s Creek, Hot Frosty) and Diona Doherty (Derry Girls, Blue Lights).
Set to premiere on CBC and CBC Gem in early 2027, and on BBC Northern Ireland around the same time, Committed follows Canadian Peter Hooley (Milligan), a recently divorced accountant who falls head over heels for Northern Irish woman Julie Johnston (Doherty) after a whirlwind weekend in Toronto, and crosses the Atlantic to declare his love, only to discover he’s landed in an old-fashioned and eccentric rural Northern Ireland village that’s nothing like he imagined.
Newly released images also feature Ian McElhinney (Derry Girls, Game of Thrones) as “William John,” Julie’s gruff father; Seamus O’Hara (House of Guinness, Say Nothing) as Julie’s daft brother, “John William”; Patrick Buchanan (Blue Lights, Warrior) as “Rev. Campbell Smiley,” the dashing figure in his ministerial collar and cycling shorts who sees himself as the guardian and soul of the village; Muki Zubis (This Is Going to Hurt) as Julie’s best friend, “Chimamanda”; and Chris McCurry (Belfast, Obituary) as “Mervyn,” Chimamanda’s charismatic and lovable husband. The cast also includes Dan Gordon (Blue Lights, Bloodlands), Athena Karkanis (Manifest, The Handmaid’s Tale) and Georgie Murphy (Stumble, Gen V).

“It’s really funny and light and lovely. But there is also a through line of a lot of heart, and all of these characters are kind of going through something — whether it’s something more comedic or something more deeply emotionally rooted. I think this movie has a very special tone to it.” – Lacey Chabert
