The way things are, I'm thinking Haken will say "F*** it" and shut the board down before the show comes out.

So everything since then has been gravy for me.
In case I haven't said it enough, Thanks For Everything, HAKEN!

Joss doesn't seem to work with the same cast of women more than once. Is Summer the exception?
So who will be cast? With HBO, they would each need a Nudity Clause in the contract, right?
I don't see details regarding the ages of these Victorian women, but if they are "just discovering" their abilities, then these could be more from the glitter girls camp.
And you didn't mention Agents of SHIELD, which seemed to have legs.
I think he only produced Agents of SHIELD. His brother and sister in law were the show runners if I recall correctly.
Casting is likely to be people he hasn't worked with before for the most part. He does seem to like giving roles to actors he previously worked with, but he tends to not take the leads from one show and make them the leads of another. So, it's possible for some guest stars from previous work to be the leads or for some prior leads to be guest stars. For the most part I'd expect new actors though.
People mentioned nudity. I wonder about that. I mean Joss doesn't have much of a track record for nudity. There was like one scene in Cabin in the Woods and that's all I can think of. It's not like HBO demands gratuitous nudity. There are some shows with very little. The Wire barely had any from what I remember. Westworld while they have nudity, it's not sexualized for the most part. It's mainly to show how park runners view the hosts are machines and nothing more. It's really Game of Thrones that leans heavily into nudity. So, I'm personally not expecting that to be a focus of the show.

The first 10 episodes have placeholders on IMDb, but only one Actress listed, and no release date.
Filming is listed as UK location.
Still no new forum listed here under "Other Joss Whedon Series" yet.

If it's full of Mary Sue, wokeness and Joss's brand of spiteful politics as of late - pass.

I have heard that The Nevers has been interesting, even without Joss at the helm.

I tried to watch this, it was on some youtube dialymotion type video channel for free but I quit as it was very boring
Steampunk is something I could watch but I couldnt watch much of this show at all
Joss was unique for his time
but this show...basically every 2nd show broadcast on tv these days is like this type of series
