In addition to Chastain, the cast of The Savant also features Nnamdi Asomugha, Cole Doman, Jordana Spiro, Trinity Lee Shirley, Toussaint Francois Battiste, and special appearance by Pablo Schreiber.
The Savant is modeled after a real-life event as depicted in the 2019 Cosmopolitan article penned by Andrea Stanley, titled “Can We Prevent Mass Shootings Before They Occur?” In this narrative, Stanley converses with a woman referred to as “K,” a veteran Marine and police officer, who assisted the FBI in identifying potentially dangerous individuals online, posing potential national security risks.

Chastain, Gibson, Kelly Carmichael, Alan Poul, Matthew Heineman, David Levine, and Garrett Kemble are among the executive producers. Heineman was the director for this series, with Stanley providing consultation services.
The Savant originated at Fifth Season and was developed with Freckle Films and Anonymous Content.

Here, she portrayed Tammy Wynette, a renowned country music artist who had a stormy relationship with George Jones (played by Michael Shannon). Her performance earned her an Emmy nomination.
