The show, created and executive produced by Thomas Brandon, takes place just five minutes into the future, where we follow Alexander Hale, played by Simu Liu.

Sara Amini, known for her role in AMC's Lucky Hank , has been cast in a major recurring role as Ellie, a key figure who supports Alexander's new operation. Amini’s character, who works in administrative support, is set to be an integral part of the narrative, helping Hale as he navigates his increasingly precarious situation. The supporting cast is equally impressive, with Melissa Barrera, Sinclair Daniel, Brian d'Arcy James, and others rounding out the ensemble, promising a compelling mix of drama and action.
