Fatal Attraction: Lizzy Caplan's Alex Won't Be Ignored in New Trailer

Premiering on Paramount+ beginning April 30th, here's the official trailer for the Joshua Jackson & Lizzy Caplan-starring Fatal Attraction.


With the streaming series set to hit screens with its first three episodes later this month, we're getting a "bigger picture" look at what's to come with Paramount+'s Fatal Attraction via the release of an official trailer. The series stars Lizzy Caplan as Alex, who becomes obsessed with her lover Dan (Joshua Jackson) after their brief affair (with Amanda Peet starring as Dan's wife, Beth). What follows 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.
