Fatal Attraction: Check Out Paramount+ Series' First 2 Eps for Free

Paramount+ released the first two episodes of its Lizzy Caplan & Joshua Jackson-starring Fatal Attraction for free - and here they are!

Told from different perspectives & different time periods, Paramount+'s Fatal Attraction focuses on Lizzy Caplan's Alex, who becomes obsessed with her lover Dan (Joshua Jackson) after their brief affair (with Amanda Peet starring as Dan's wife, Beth). The result is a deep-dive reimagining of the 1987 Michael Douglas & Glenn Close film exploring the timeless themes of marriage and infidelity through the lens of modern attitudes towards strong women, personality disorders, and coercive control.

And what better way to do that than to release the first two episodes on YouTube for free? Well, that's exactly what they did – and we have them waiting for you below.
