• The first two episodes of Fatal Attraction will debut on April 30.
• The iconic thriller series featuring Glenn Close, Michael Douglas, and Anne Archer.
• The series will explore fatal attraction and the timeless themes of marriage and infidelity.

The first two episodes of the upcoming Paramount+ series Fatal Attraction, which stars Lizzy Caplan, Joshua Jackson, and Amanda Peet, will debut on April 30, the streaming service said on January 9.

The iconic 1987 thriller, Fatal Attraction, featuring Glenn Close, Michael Douglas, and Anne Archer in the parts now performed by Caplan, Jackson, and Peet, is promoted by Paramount+ as “a deep-dive reinterpretation.”

“The new series will explore fatal attraction and the timeless themes of marriage and infidelity,” the streamer says, “through the lens of modern attitudes toward strong women, personality disorders and coercive control.”

The show’s creator and writer is Alexandra Cunningham, who previously collaborated with Peet on Dirty John: The Betty Broderick Story.

“[The show] is about how some people just can’t take a win,” Cunningham said at Fatal Attraction’s Television Critics Association panel Jan. 9. “It’s about self-image and what we’ll do to protect it, and also what happens when someone doesn’t have one. And if we’ve done our job, which these actors and their colleagues definitely did, they think that your sympathies will shift more than once.”
