It was announced in October 2023 that Elle Fanning and Nicole Kidman would star in and executive produce the series, which David E. Kelley will serve as showrunner on.[3] In February 2024, Apple TV+ landed the rights to the series, with it receiving a straight to series order.[4] In September, Michelle Pfeiffer joined the cast and will also serve as an executive producer. This marks the first time she has collaborated with Kelley, her husband.[5] Nick Offerman and Thaddea Graham would be added to the cast in the following months.[6][7] In February 2025, Marcia Gay Harden and Michael Angarano were cast in guest roles.[8][9] In March 2025, Greg Kinnear, Lindsey Normington, Rico Nasty and Michael Workéyè joined the cast in series regular and recurring capacities, respectively.[10][11] In April 2025, Dearbhla Walsh, Kate Herron, and Alice Seabright were announced as the directors of the series. Walsh will direct four of the eight episodes, including the pilot, and Herron and Seabright will direct two episodes each.[12]

Filming was due to begin in January 2025 in New York.[13] It began instead in Los Angeles in February, and is expected to conclude in May.[14]
