Offerman will star in the series alongside previously announced cast members Elle Fanning, Nicole Kidman, and Michelle Pfeiffer. The eight-episode show was ordered to series at Apple back in February after a multi-platform bidding war. It is based on the Rufi Thorpe novel of the same name, which was published in June.

Per the description of the novel’s plot, it focuses on Margo Millet (Fanning), the daughter of a Hooters waitress (Pfeiffer) and an ex-pro wrestler (Offerman).
