Komarnicki serves as writer and showrunner.
Additional writers include Karen Janszen, Tony Spiridakis, Evan Hart, and Kyle Stephen. Bronwen Hughes is set to direct the pilot and episode two. Rachel Leiterman will direct episodes three and four, and Stephen Campanelli will direct episodes five and six.
Earth Abides is produced by MGM+ Studios and distributed worldwide by Amazon MGM Studios Distribution.
