The script is by Paul Wernick and Rhett Reese, the writers of the Deadpool films and Zombieland, and most recently scripted Escape from Spiderhead. They hatched the idea and sold it to Skydance as a pitch.

Apple TV+ and Skydance have something of an ongoing relationship, with the latter being hit CODA.
