Sirens cast and character guide: Who plays whom in Netflix's miniseries?

Netflix has greenlit another dark and enigmatic miniseries titled Sirens. Described as a dark comedy, the miniseries is set over the Labor Day weekend and covers everything from a mysterious and creepy boss-employee bond to cults, Greek mythology, and more. The series premieres exclusively on Netflix on May 22, and Netflix has also released an official trailer very recently for the upcoming dark comedy.

The miniseries has a lot of big names attached to its cast ensemble, so let's not waste any more time and dive right into who plays whom in Netflix's Sirens.

Who plays whom in Netflix miniseries Sirens?

The dark comedy is set over a Labor Day weekend when Devon decides to spend time at an enigmatic socialite, Michaela Kell's, lavish beach home, where her sister Simone works. Devon feels as if there is an extremely unhealthy and creepy bond between her sister and her boss. Simone, Kell's assistant, craves every interaction with Kell and her rich lifestyle, akin to a drug addiction. Devon decides it's time to intervene and save her sister, unaware that this won't be such an easy task with Kell as her opponent. Netflix's Tudum describes Sirens as:

"An incisive, s*xy, and darkly funny exploration of women, power, and class."

Devon DeWitt, the protective and fierce elder sister, is played by Meghann Fahy. Fahy was last seen in The White Lotus and did an exceptional job there. It appears her performance in Sirens must also be watched out for, considering creator and executive producer Molly Smith Metzler is very impressed by her performance:

"I like to talk about Devon as the metronome of the show, She sets the pace, and especially the comedy. Casting Meghann was a gift from the heavens."

The ethereal and enigmatic socialite Michaela Kell is being played by Julianne Moore, who was last seen in Mary & George. Her controversial relationship with her assistant Simone, along with her ethereal and mythological persona, is at the centre of her personality, making Moore the perfect choice for this part, as explained by the showrunner:

"Julianne’s just the dream for this role because she does feel ethereal, She’s from another kingdom. She is not a normie."

The younger sister, personal assistant to the enigmatic billionaire, Simone DeWitt, is played by Milly Alcock, from House of the Dragon. Even though her elder sister feels Simone needs an intervention, for Simone, working for Kell is a dream come true. She is completely lost in the ethereal persona of her boss, unwilling to listen to anything Devon has to say about it.

Kevin Bacon will be playing Peter Kell (Michaela's husband), and Glenn Howerton is set to appear as Ethan Corbin III, a friend of the Kells. Additionally, Felix Solis will be joining as Jose, the gardener (but he's much, much more than just that), and Bill Camp as Bruce DeWitt, the girls' father. Josh Sargerra, who was also seen in Scream and Abbott Elementary, will be playing Raymond, Devon's on-again-off-again toxic boyfriend from New York.

Trevor Salter will be playing the handsome captain of Ethan's yacht, Jordan, who all the ladies seem to be crushing on. The Kells' seasonal housekeeper, Missy, will be played by Britne Oldford (The Umbrella Academy). Lauren Weedman will be joining as Patrice, the long-time chef. The trio, aka 'The Fates' (loyal followers of Michaela Kell), Cloe, Lisa, and Astrid, will be played by Jenn Lyon, Erin Neufer, and Emily Borromeo, respectively.

Based on a play, Elemeno Pea, written by Matzler during her days at Juilliard School, Sirens is all set to premiere on May 22, 2025.
