Initially considered to be part of the shared fictional Arrowverse, where Hoechlin and Tulloch originated their roles, with crossovers with Supergirl and Batwoman being developed during the first season before being cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it was determined towards the end of the filming of the first season to have the series be set in an alternate universe from the Arrowverse, which was confirmed by the end of the second season.
