Theyre joined by Rhenzy Feliz, Michael Kelly, Shohreh Aghdashloo, Deirdre OConnell, Carmen Ejogo, Franois Chau and David H. Holmes.

Lauren LeFranc (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.) is the executive producer and showrunner of the series, with The Batman writer-director Matt Reeves executive producing through his production company 6th Idaho. Executive producer Craig Zobel (Mare of Easttown) is directing the first three episodes; other exec producers include Farrell, Dylan Clark, Daniel Pipski and Bill Carraro.
