Bravo has acquired the UK rights to the upcoming remake of Hawaii Five-O.

According to The Guardian, the channel bought the exclusive pay-TV, Freeview and digital rights.

The show, which was picked up by CBS in the US, focuses on police officers working in Hawaii. The cast includes Alex O'Loughlin, Scott Caan, Daniel Dae Kim and Grace Park.

Virgin Media TV's head of acquisitions Amy Barham said: "Hawaii Five-O was the standout show at this year's LA screenings and securing it exclusively for UK audiences demonstrates yet again Bravo's commitment to owning the very best in primetime US dramas."

The series is expected to premiere in the US and the UK in the autumn.
