Mermaids are Real in the New Trailer for Freeform’s Siren

Mermaids aren’t just legend in the new trailer for the upcoming Freeform series Siren

Today, Freeform released a new trailer for their upcoming series Siren. The one-hour drama has received a 10-episode order from the network. The trailer introduces us to a small town that has local legends of mermaids. These don’t appear to be your typical mermaids. From the trailer, they seem to have defenses of their own and a score to settle with the people of this town. Siren will premiere in summer of 2018.

Siren takes us inside Bristol Cove – a coastal town known for its legend of once being home to mermaids. When the arrival of a mysterious girl proves this folklore all too true, the battle between man and sea takes a very vicious turn as these predatory beings return to reclaim their right to the ocean. The series stars Alex Roe (The 5th Wave) as Ben, a bright marine biologist who finds himself drawn to a mysterious new girl in town, Ryn, played by Eline Powell (Game of Thrones), who is a strange young woman with a deep dark secret. Fola Evans-Akingbola (An American Exorcism) stars as Maddie, also a marine biologist who works with Ben, and is highly suspicious of Ryn. Ian Verdun (Life’s a Drag) stars as Xander, a deep sea fisherman on a quest to uncover the truth, and Rena Owen (Star Wars: Episodes II and III) plays Helen, the town eccentric who seems to know more about the mermaids than she lets on.

Siren is based on a story by Eric Wald and Dean White who both serve as executive produces. Emily Whitesell (Finding Carter) is on board as Showrunner and Executive Producer. Brad Luff, Nate Hopper and RD Robb are also attached as executive producers.
