Inspired by an actual US military program, the action series revolves around Joe (Saldaña), the station chief leading the CIA’s Lioness Engagement Team. As CIA’s spear in the war on terror, she struggles to balance her personal and professional life.

An asset in the agency, she’s in-charge of training and supervising new recruits, sending the best female undercover operatives for undercover missions. The Lioness Program is looked after by program head Kaitlyn Meade (Kidman) and CIA Deputy Director Donald Westfield (Kelly).

Battling a terrorist organisation, a passionate young marine recruited to operate undercover alongside Joe is brought into the fold. The mission is to befriend the daughter of a billionaire with strong ties to terrorist groups. Together, they operate amongst the power brokers of terrorism in the CIA’s efforts to stop the next 9/11.

Main stars Nicole Kidman and Zoe Saldaña also executive produced the series alongside Yellowstone creator Taylor Sheridan, Jill Wagner, David Glasser, David Hutkin, Bob Yari, and Geyer Kosinski.
