NBC picked up the script penned by Jennifer Johnson with a put pilot commitment in September 2009.[2] Johnson will serve as an executive producer, along with Jerry Bruckheimer and Jonathan Littman. David Nutter was signed to direct the pilot.[29]

Casting announcements began the second week of February 2010. Rose Rollins was first to be cast, in the role of Daisy Ogbaa, the team's weapon specialist.[30] This was followed quickly by the announcements of the casting of Jesse Metcalfe as Luke Watson, a Marshal from Washington, D.C.,[31] and Cole Hauser, as an experienced ex-cop who co-heads the apprehension team.[32] Amaury Nolasco came on board a few days later to portray veteran cop Marco Martinez.[33]

The role of the show's central character, Annie Frost, was offered to actresses Maria Bello, Téa Leoni, and Christina Applegate.[34] The producers were seeking a "strong female lead actress" for the role of Frost.[34] Eventually Kelli Giddish landed the female lead role in late February.[35] The show is primarily set in Houston, Texas episode 2 onward.

The pilot takes place in Houston, Texas and was shot in Dallas and Anna, Texas in March.[36] NBC ordered Chase to series on May 10, 2010.[37] The series will continue to be filmed in the Dallas area.[38][39]
