The premise seems to follow a similar formula to most microdramas, and is packed with outrageously dramatic scenes and a forbidden romance.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The project is notable for being one of the first microseries produced under SAG-AFTRA\u2019s new <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sagaftra.org\/verticals-agreement\">verticals agreement<\/a>, a union contract specifically for low-budget microdramas. This offers an early glimpse of how the format could create new opportunities for actors and other Hollywood talent.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beyond that, Franco\u2019s involvement has drawn attention for another reason: The project marks his attempt at a comeback following sexual misconduct allegations and a <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/entertainment-arts-57677874\">legal settlement<\/a> in 2021.
