Sinclair Daniel (The Other Black Girl, Insidious: The Red Door) as Parker, Brian D’Arcy James (Spotlight, 13 Reasons Why) as Peter Moira, Mark O’Brien (City on a Hill, Ready or Not) as Cobb, and Kathleen Chalfant (Wit, The Affair) as St. George round out the cast.
The series comes from UCP, a division of Universal Studio Group. The showrunners, writers, and executive producers are creator Thomas Brandon (Legacies) and Jennifer Yale (See, Outlander).
The executive producers also include James Wan (The Conjuring Universe, M3GAN), Michael Clear (Archive 81, M3GAN), and Rob Hackett (Archive 81, I Know What You Did Last Summer) for Atomic Monster, as well as Mark Winemaker and Jet Wilkinson, who also directs the first two episodes.
