Fatal Attraction: Lizzy Caplan, Joshua Jackson Share Sneak Previews
Paramount+'s Fatal Attraction stars Lizzy Caplan and Joshua Jackson hit the late-night circuit with new looks at the upcoming series.
With this Sunday bringing the premiere of Paramount+'s Fatal Attraction, it's only fitting that we get some new looks at what viewers can expect. Told from different perspectives & different time periods, the streaming series take 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). What results 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. Hitting the late-night circuit, Jackson and Caplan both checked in with Jimmy Fallon on NBC's The Tonight Show. And while both interviews are more than worth your time in their entirety, Jackson and Caplan also brought sneak peeks with them.
Here's a look at what Jackson (beginning at the 6:10 mark) and Caplan (beginning at the 9:55 mark) had to reveal about Paramount+'s Fatal Attraction:
