Get Your First Look At Katy Keene
Get your first look at The CW Network's newest show coming this February...
Katy Keene follows the lives and loves of four iconic Archie Comics characters —
fashion legend-to-be Katy Keene (Lucy Hale), singer/songwriter Josie McCoy (Ashleigh
Murray), performer Jorge Lopez/Ginger (Jonny Beauchamp), and “It Girl” Pepper Smith (Julia
Chan) — as they chase their twenty-something dreams in New York City…together.
Katy designs clothes for anyone she can, including her friend and roommate Josie, whose
singing talent catches the attention of Alexander Cabot (Lucien Laviscount), a CEO who hopes
to reboot the record label division of his father’s corporate empire. But Alexander’s dream of
signing Josie to a recording contract meets resistance from Cabot Media’s powerful senior vice
president Alexandra (Camille Hyde), who also happens to be his twin sister. Josie and Katy’s
roommate Jorge works at his family’s bodega and has his eye on Broadway, but after a series of
rejections, he hopes to take his drag performance career as Ginger to the next level. The
mysterious Pepper Smith plans to open her own version of Andy Warhol’s Factory. She has the
connections, but no one seems to know where she got her money — or if she really has any at
all.
Katy struggles to manage the pressures of her day job at Lacy’s Department Store and her
very demanding boss, Gloria (Katherine LaNasa), who is a legendary personal shopper. But
Katy has the support of her longtime boyfriend, KO Kelly (Zane Holtz), who has his own dream
of becoming a professional boxer. As these aspiring artists take on the runway, the recording
studio, Broadway, and the NYC social scene, they will find more than just a career in the big city
— they’ll find long-lasting friendship.
Katy Keene premieres Thursday, February 6th on Chicago's New Home for The CW, CW26.
