Netflix’s official trailer for Sirens sets up the dysfunctional relationship between sisters and introduces an incredibly wealthy woman who might be the head of a cult. It’s hard to tell if that’s true, but the trailer definitely sets up the possibility. Hey, hey.
Oscar winner Julianne Moore stars as the charismatic Michaela Kell, and Milly Alcock plays Simone DeWitt, the sister who’s fallen under Michaela’s spell. Meghann Fahy stars as Devon DeWitt, the sibling who doesn’t understand the appeal and Kevin Bacon plays Peter Kell, Michaela’s billionaire husband. Filling out the cast are Glenn Howerton as Ethan Corbin III, Bill Camp as Bruce DeWitt, and Felix Solis as Jose.
“Devon thinks her sister Simone has a really creepy relationship with her new boss, the enigmatic socialite Michaela Kell. Michaela’s cult-ish life of luxury is like a drug to Simone, and Devon has decided it’s time for an intervention, but she has no idea what a formidable opponent Michaela will be,” reads Netflix’s synopsis. “Told over the course of one explosive weekend at the Kells’ lavish island estate, Sirens is an incisive, sexy, and darkly funny exploration of women, power, and class.”
In addition to releasing the official trailer, Netflix unveiled new photos and confirmed a May 22, 2025 premiere.
Emmy nominee Molly Smith Metzler (Maid) created the dark comedy and serves as writer, executive producer, and showrunner. Additional executive producers include Colin McKenna and Dani Gorin, Tom Ackerley, and Margot Robbie for LuckyChap. Nicole Kassell executive produces and directs the first two episodes.
“Michaela and Simone are friends. They’re trauma-bonded. They’re codependent,” explained Molly Smith Metzler, discussing the series with Tudum. “But they also really need something from each other. And what they need from each other shifts throughout the show.”
