Another notable signing is that of Laura Neal, a renowned writer known for her work on the successful series Killing Eve. Neal joins the writing team, indicating that the series could feature an intriguing and nuanced narrative approach, very much in line with the intensity that has characterized her previous scripts.
The name of Francesca has been mentioned as the showrunner of the project, although more information about her experience is required.
