In an interview with UPROXX, show lead Rebecca Ferguson explained the reason she was drawn to the show's script. She said:
"I don’t know if I go for sci-fi. It comes to me. I think maybe the world intrigues me because it’s an endless pit of imagination. Someone asked me what my favorite story was as a little child; it was Alice in Wonderland, it was Alice Through the Looking Glass, and it was The Secret Garden. It was all of these imaginative worlds where I was small, where I [didn’t mean] much in this bigger world.
Ferguson revealed that Alice in Wonderland was her favorite story as a child and she loved the concept of imaginary worlds.
