The Vibes Are (Purposely) Off in Netflix’s ‘Sirens’ Trailer

Netflix has released a trailer for its forthcoming series Sirens, and if the streamer was going for “slightly disturbing,” then it hit the mark.

The limited series from Maid creator Molly Smith Metzler stars Meghann Fahy (The White Lotus, Drop) as a woman who comes looking for her younger sister (Milly Alcock, House of the Dragon) — only to discover she’s become ensconced in the strange world of a wealthy family. Netflix’s description reads, “Devon (Fahy) thinks her sister Simone (Alcock) has a really creepy relationship with her new boss, the enigmatic socialite Michaela Kell (Julianne Moore). 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.”

The bass line from Gotye’s “Somebody That I Used to Know” is looped throughout the trailer, underscoring the strange vibes. Watch it below.

Sirens also stars Kevin Bacon, Glenn Howerton, Bill Camp and Felix Solis. The series is based on Metzler’s play Elemeno Pea, which she wrote during her time at Juilliard. It’s the first product of an overall deal Metzler signed with Netflix in the wake of Maid’s success.

Metzler is the showrunner and executive produces via her Quiet Coyote banner. Also exec producing are Dani Gorin, Tom Ackerley, and Margot Robbie for LuckyChap, Colin McKenna, and Nicole Kassell, who directed the first two episodes. Sirens is set to premiere on May 22.
