The series is an update of the Fox crime drama series, which ran from 2005 to 2009 with a revival season airing in 2017. The new show will be set in the same universe as the previous version but will follow a new cast of characters, starring Gage, Emily Browning, Drake Rodger, Clayton Cardenas, J.R. Bourne, Georgie Flores, and Miles Bullock.
Gage said on the carpet Hollywood Reporter They’re currently in the middle of filming, and “we respect the amazing TV show that I grew up loving, but it’s also on Hulu now, not on Fox, so we can get really gritty and get really dark. It’s going to be crazy, and it’s going to be a wild ride.”
He added that although the cast is new, “we may see a couple of the OGs return;” The original film revolves around two brothers, played by Dominic Purcell and Wentworth Miller. The reboot will also feature “a lot of great actors,” Gage said, noting, “I’m working with Margo Martindale now and it’s like a character actor’s dream world, this show.”

Writer-director Leah McKendrick said she made the film as “a love letter to my little sister, who is still alive and well but is the great love of my life and taught me what true love is, long before I ever experienced it romantically.”
Deutch originally read the script seven years ago, and has been trying to make it happen ever since. It was made easier by the fact that she and Robinson grew up in Los Angeles together, as he noted, “It was fun to finally be able to get a chance to work together. We had a few movies that came and went” and it never ended up being filmed.
Deutch added of their relationship, “Especially when you’re photographing these people who have, like, instant chemistry and connection, it’s hard to replicate that artificially. With history and time and friendship on your side, I think that can help create that energy.”
