Michael Imperioli Joins Fox Drama Series ‘Memory of a Killer' Opposite Patrick Dempsey
Michael Imperioli is the latest addition to the cast of the upcoming Fox series 'Memory of a Killer.' Imperioli will star in the series alongside previously announced lead Patrick Dempsey. The new series is said to be inspired by the Belgian film 'De Zaak Alzheimer,' aka 'La Memoire Du Tueur.' Per the official logline, the show is about 'hitman Angelo Ledda (Dempsey) leading a dangerous double life while hiding an even deadlier personal secret — he has developed early onset Alzheimer's.' More from Variety Stand Up Comedian Earthquake to Develop Fox Sitcom Based on His Life, Bill Burr to Produce Fox Biblical Event Series 'The Faithful' to Debut in March 2026, Finale Set for Easter Sunday Johnny Knoxville to Host 'Fear Factor' Reboot on Fox Imperioli will star as Dutch, described as 'an accomplished Italian chef who owns a restaurant in the Bronx, a stalwart establishment that is also a front for Dutch's less sociable activities — such as running a criminal enterprise. As ruthless and mercurial as he is affable, Dutch is Angelo's oldest friend, as well as his employer — he gives Angelo the targets for his hits. In a business as dangerous as theirs, Angelo must trust Dutch. But being trustworthy isn't one of Dutch's more dependable qualities.' Imperioli is best known for his role as Christopher Moltisanti in the seminal HBO drama 'The Sopranos.' He was nominated for five Emmy Awards and two Golden Globes during his time on the series, winning the Emmy for best supporting actor in a drama in 2004. He also wrote five episodes of the series. Recently, he starred in Season 2 of 'The White Lotus' at HBO, for which he earned another Emmy nomination. His other recent TV credits include 'This Fool' at Hulu and 'Lincoln Rhyme: Hunt for the Bone Collector' at NBC. He is repped by Gersh and Anonymous Content. 'Memory of a Killer' is produced by Warner Bros. Television and Fox Entertainment. Ed Whitmore and Tracey Malone developed the series for television and executive produce alongside Cathy Schulman of Welle Entertainment. Arthur Sarkissian and Martin Campbell are also executive producers, along with Peter Bouckaert of Eyeworks.
