Siren Season 2 Finds A Mermaid Love Triangle Growing as Ryn Returns to Form (VIDEOS)

With fans of Eric Wald and Dean White's mermaid fantasy-action drama Siren set to welcome the series back to Freeform this week, the network continues fueling their excitement with two new previews. The first clip asks the question fans have been asking since early on in the first season: are the growing feelings between Ben (Alex Roe), Maddie (Fola Evans-Akingbola), and Ryn (Eline Powell) a result of the Siren song – or something more:

If you're a fan who was hoping to see more of Ryn in her mermaid form, the following clip should give you some hope for what's to come:

Joining the cast of Siren for its second season are Natalee Linez (The Art of Panic, The Swerve) as Nicole, a mysterious woman with her own agenda who catches Xander's (Ian Verdun) eye when she moves to town, distracting him from the painful death of his father; and Garcelle Beauvais (The Arrangement) as Susan Bishop, Maddie's mother and Dale's (Gil Birmingham) wife who returns to Bristol Cove to start over by making amends with the family she abandoned ten months earlier.

Siren s02: More mermaids will arrive in the once-sleepy fishing town in Season 2 — but are they seeking revenge, or is something more catastrophic driving them out of the sea? Marine researchers Ben (Alex Roe) and Maddie (Fola Evans-Akingbola) continue to establish a bond with mermaid Ryn (Eline Powell), not only to protect her but to try to help save her entire civilization. Ian Verdun and Rena Owen also star.

Here's a look at back at the beginnings of Freeform's Siren, followed by Bleeding Cool's reviews of the series' ten-episode first season:

"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) as Helen, the town eccentric who seems to know more about the mermaids than she lets on.

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.

Freeform's Siren returns for its second season on Thursday, January 24, at 8 p.m. EST.
