According to Deadline, ‘The Spot’ follows a successful surgeon (Winslet) and her school teacher husband who suspect she might be responsible for a child’s hit-and-run death.

While Winslet has that executive producer credit and will no doubt be involved creatively, actual showrunning duties are falling to Ed Solomon, who created and will write what is likely to be a limited series (since stars such as Winslet don’t normally want the commitment of a full season of TV).
Solomon might be best known for co-writing the three ‘Now You See Me’ movies and ‘No Sudden Move.’
That latter title was one of his collaborations with director Full Circle’.
‘The Spot’ was developed by A24, which has seen some big success in the TV field of late with shows including Disney.
