Julianne Moore, Milly Alcock and Meghann Fahy are set to star in the upcoming Netflix miniseries “Sirens.”

diversity In February, it was exclusively reported that the black comedy series would be released on Netflix. It comes from “Maid” creator Molly Smith Metzler and is based on her play “Elemeno Pea”.

The series is told over the course of a weekend at a luxurious beachfront estate. According to the official logline, “Devon (Fahy) finds her sister Simone (Alcock) developing a truly sinister relationship with her new boss, mysterious socialite Michaela Kell (Moore). Michaela’s cult-like lifestyle of luxury is like a drug to Simone and Devon has decided it’s time for an intervention. When Devon tracks down her sister to say WTF, she has no idea what a formidable opponent Michaela will be.”

Moore is one of the most celebrated actresses of her generation. She has been nominated for five Academy Awards for Boogie Nights, The End of an Affair, Far from Heaven, The Hours and Still Alice, winning Best Actress for the latter. She also won an Emmy for her role as Sarah Palin in the 2012 film Game Change. She has recently starred in series such as Mary & George and Lisey’s Story.

She is represented by WME, Entertainment 360 and Edelstein, Laird & Sobel.

She is also known for the Freeform series The Bold Type, in which she starred for five seasons. Her other roles include One Life to Live and appearances on series such as The Good Wife, Gossip Girl, and Chicago Fire.

She is represented by WME, Anonymous Content and Sloane Offer.

Alcock is best known for her role in Season 1 of HBO’s Game of Thrones prequel House of the Dragon.
