Netflix Just Dropped the Trailer for “Sirens”—and It’s as Twisted as Its A-List Cast
Starring Julianne Moore, Meghann Fahy, and Milly Alcock, the limited series “Sirens” dives into the murky waters of power, sisterhood, and the seductive pull of wealth. Set over a high-stakes Labor Day weekend, “Sirens” blends humor and drama to deliver a fresh take on complex relationships.
“Sirens” Premise
At the center is Devon (Fahy), a concerned older sister trying to “rescue” her younger sibling Simone (Alcock) from the grip of Kiki (Moore)—a glamorous, wealthy boss whose beachside lifestyle has a strangely cultish vibe. What starts as a simple intervention quickly turns into a tense psychological showdown, as Devon uncovers the darker truths behind Kiki’s carefully curated world.
“Sirens” Production
Created by “Maid” showrunner Molly Smith Metzler and adapted from her play Elemeno Pea, “Sirens” is a smart, character-driven story that explores themes of class, control, and the blurred lines between protection and possession. With Emmy-nominated Nicole Kassell (“Watchmen”) directing the first two episodes, the series promises both visual flair and emotional depth.
Backing the production are heavy-hitters like Margot Robbie and Tom Ackerley, with a supporting cast that includes Kevin Bacon, Glenn Howerton, and Bill Camp—each adding their own spark to an already electric ensemble.
The trailer, set to Gotye’s haunting “Somebody That I Used to Know,” teases a sun-drenched paradise hiding serious dysfunction. It captures the show’s eerie tone and raises big questions: who’s in control, and who needs saving?
Premiering May 22, “Sirens” is shaping up to be a must-watch—funny, unsettling, and incredibly timely. If you’re into dark comedies with bite and heart, this one’s for you.
