Max
Netflix today announced the new series, Sirens, a female-driven limited series from Emmy® nominated Maid writer/showunner Molly Smith Metzler, and executive produced by LuckyChap Entertainment.
Logline: 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. When Devon tracks her sister down to say WTF, she has no idea what a formidable opponent Michaela will be. Told over the course of one explosive weekend at The Kells’ lavish beach estate, Sirens is an incisive, sexy, and darkly funny exploration of women, power, and class.
Showrunner / Writer / Executive Producer: Molly Smith Metzler (Maid, Shameless, Orange is the New Black) for Quiet Coyote.
Executive Producers: Dani Gorin, Tom Ackerley, and Margot Robbie for LuckyChap Entertainment.
Sirens is the first series out of Metzler’screative partnership with Netflix and is based on her play Elemeno Pea, which she wrote at The Juilliard School.
Smith and LuckyChap’s previous series at Netflix, Maid, starring Margaret Qualley, spent 14 weeks in the Global Top 10 TV and reached the Top 10 TV in 93 countries. The Emmy, Golden Globe and Critics Choice-nominated series won the Writers Guild Award for Limited Series Writing/Adapted Long Form and an AFI Award.
