In the quote below, Raisani indicates that more details will be revealed soon :. So we did a lot of strategizing about a city that hopefully is exciting in concept, but not so well known by many other TV shows and franchises. I think that the veil will come off of that pretty soon. Raisani doesn't explicitly mention Hawaii, which has been rumored as a possible spinoff candidate.

Las Vegas is also a popular setting for a variety of television shows and movies, with New York being an absolute favorite. The executive producer indicates that these may not be part of the world, at least not for the next spinoff, because they are so common.
