Series creator Molly Smith Metzler described it as having “a lot of teeth” with “real moments of drama” that will make viewers uncomfortable.
“‘Operatic’ is a word I like to use to describe it,” she explained. “It’s a true dark comedy — and it’s got a Greek mythology vibe.”
The show promises to be an incisive, sexy, and darkly funny exploration of women, power, and class dynamics.
Who is in the cast of Sirens?
Netflix has assembled an absolutely stellar cast for this limited series. Oscar-winner Julianne Moore stars as the mysterious Michaela Kell, a philanthropist and animal activist who runs the island’s high society and is married to billionaire Peter Kell. Metzler described Moore as “the dream for this role because she does feel ethereal. She’s from another kingdom. She is not a normie.” Isn’t that the truth?
Meghann Fahy, who captivated audiences in The White Lotus and The Perfect Couple, plays Devon DeWitt. Her character is described as funny, resilient, and fiercely protective of her younger sister.
