Director Mohamed Diab said that one of the most important things was how to depict Egypt, the present and the past, in an authentic way. He told Variety in March 2022; "Egyptians see that Hollywood always sees them in an Orientalist way. We're always exotic. Women are submissive. Men are bad. So it was very important for me to break that." Diab pushed for Egyptian-Palestinian actress May Calamawy to play Layla El-Faouly, a woman from Marc's past who was not initially written to be Egyptian. And he insisted on shooting the sequences of the show set in Cairo to reflect how the city really incorporates its most famous ancient landmarks.
