In an interview, the actress running in the lead said that they were all auditioning to be in the series. For one scene, they were told to run towards the camera as fast as they could. She thought nothing of it until she watched the TV series and noticed herself in the opening credits. Instant fame, so to speak.

That's actually my favorite scene from the opening credits. The thing I notice most is how effortless she makes it look and seems to be pulling away from the group while the blonde woman behind her to the left is struggling to keep up.
