The drama will feature Stellan Skarsgård and Daryl McCormack, positioning the project as the latest Sony Pictures Television‑Apple collaboration after titles like *For All Mankind* and *Black Bird*, bringing together seasoned performers and emerging talent for a story steeped in corporate intrigue.

Fanning will also serve as co‑producer, working alongside sister Elle Fanning and veteran producers Brittany Kahan Ward, Julie Gardner, and Kari Skogland, who will direct.
