Production
editThe series was given a straight to series green-light at HBO Max in April 2020, as part of J. J. Abrams' overall deal at WarnerMedia. Abrams will co-write the series with LaToya Morgan.[3]
In March 2021, Josh Holloway was cast to star in the pilot,[4] with filming beginning in October 2021 in Tucson.[5] In February 2023, the series was officially given a series order, with Rachel Hilson among the cast additions to the series and Steph Green directing.[2] Corbin Bernsen would join the cast in a recurring role the following month.[6]
Production for the full series began in April 2023 in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and the surrounding areas.[7][8] In May, it was suspended due to the 2023 WGA strike.[9] Before the strike, the pilot was shot in downtown Tucson, Arizona, and parts of Pima County from September through mid-November 2021.[10]
