Julianne Moore, Meghann Fahy and Milly Alcock have all joined Netflix’s upcoming limited series Sirens in leading roles, our sister site Variety reports.

The dark comedy (from Maid creator Molly Smith Metzler) is told over the course of one weekend at a lavish beach estate. Per the official logline, “Devon (The White Lotus’ Fahy) thinks her sister Simone (House of the Dragon’s Alcock) has a really creepy relationship with her new boss, the enigmatic socialite Michaela Kell (Moore). 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.”

Additionally, Deadline reports that Kevin Bacon (City on a Hill) has been cast as Michaela’s husband Peter, while Glenn Howerton (It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia) will play Ethan Corbin II, “a dear friend of the Kells and life-long bachelor who lives next door.”

Moore, who won an Emmy for playing Sarah Palin in the 2012 film Game Change, was most recently seen in TV shows like Mary & George and Lisey’s Story. Fahy earned critical acclaim and an Emmy nomination for her turn in Season 2 of HBO’s The White Lotus. She is also known for starring in the Freeform series The Bold Type for five seasons. Alcock is best known for her role in Season 1 of House of the Dragon.

Metzler will serve as writer, showrunner and executive producer. Additional EPs include Dani Gorin, Tom Ackerley and Margot Robbie.

Hong Kong Mafia (triad) member breaks down 12 HK Mafia scenes in movies and TV
Jimmy Tsui, a former member of the Sun Yee On triad in Hong Kong and Tung On in New York City's Chinatown, breaks down 12 Chinese organized-crime scenes in movies and TV shows based on realism. Tsui breaks down the accuracy of triad activities in Hong Kong and the United States, such as the money-laundering scenes in "Rush Hour 2," with Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker; "A Better Tomorrow," with Chow Yun-fat and Leslie Cheung; the human smuggling ring in "Lethal Weapon 4," with Jet Li, Mel Gibson, and Danny Glover; and the connection of triads with the nightclub and movie industries in Hong Kong in "Young and Dangerous 3." He explains the realism of triads dealing with law enforcement and other international criminal organizations, such as the Irish Mob in "The Departed," with Leonardo DiCaprio, Matt Damon, and Jack Nicholson; the tensions between the yakuza and the San Francisco triad in "War," with Jason Statham; the relationship between the Hong Kong police and the triads in "Infernal Affairs," starring Tony Leung and Andy Lau; and the interaction with motorcycle clubs in "Sons of Anarchy" S6E10. Tsui also looks at scenes in New York City's Chinatown, such as the rivalry between two Tong associations in "The Corruptor," with Mark Wahlberg and Chow Yun-fat; and the gambling-house scene in "Year of the Dragon." Tsui also explains the rituals and hierarchy of the triads, such as the initiation-ceremony scene in "Election" (2005) and the voting scene in "The Brothers Sun" E7, starring Michelle Yeoh. Tsui was involved with the Sun Yee On triad and Tung On in New York City's Chinatown for over 10 years. In 1985 in New York, he was arrested and charged with robbery and homicide with a $1.5 million bail. The case was dismissed and resulted in his transition into Sun Yee On in 1988. He was involved in karaoke bars, gambling houses, and various scams. After leaving the triads, Tsui got involved with Chinatown Gang Stories, a YouTube channel organized by Mike Moy, a former gang member and New York City Police Department officer.
