FREEFORM DECLARES MARCH 29 INTERNATIONAL MERMAID DAY WITH THE

PREMIERE OF NEW ORIGINAL DRAMA, ‘SIREN,’ AT 8 P.M. EDT

 

In a packed room of nearly 1000 screaming fans during their New York Comic Con panel, Freeform,

“Siren” will premiere on THURSDAY, MARCH 29, with a special two-hour episode (8:00–10:00

Also announced during today’s panel was the casting of Aylya Marzoff (“Grandfathered”) and
Sedale Threatt Jr. (“Hap and Leonard”) who will both join the cast in recurring roles. Marzoff will
portray Katrina, an alpha leader of the mermaid colony, while Threatt Jr. will portray Levi, a warrior
merman with an imposing presence.

What if there was something sinister swimming beneath the sea’s surface? In Freeform’s next epic
tale, “Siren,” the coastal town of Bristol Cove, known for its legend of once being home to
mermaids, is turned upside down when a mysterious girl (Eline Powell) appears and begins
wreaking havoc upon the small fishing town. Using their resources, marine biologists Ben (Alex
Roe) and Maddie (Fola Evans-Akingbola) must work together to find out who and what drove this
primal hunter of the deep sea to land, and are there more like her out there?
“Siren” is based on a story by Eric Wald and Dean White who both serve as executive producers.
Emily Whitesell (“Finding Carter”) serves as showrunner and executive producer. Brad Luff, Nate
Hopper and RD Robb also serve as executive producers.
