About SIREN:
“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.

Her eyes are so alien-like, she looks like she’s from another world in the best way possible. Very unique and ethereal looking)

[sheenahannan]

Omg it’s crazy to see her talking like a normal person

[smolter_m]

For me she have perfect look of face for play as mermaid😉

[briannalentz]

Who else just came here to hear what her real voice sounds like🙋‍♀️

[jaydee]

I really adore how the tails and the whole look is done here, it is very clear that the team itself aimed for a more realistic turn in how a mermaid would actually look. Using CGI to recreate the tail is honestly amazing since this gives them a chance to add a more realistic feel as compared to that of a wearable tail with a monofin. Especially since it hides where the knees bend so that is even better lol

[ttlife]

Played the best mermaid ever. Her look, voice, everything was so great. You believed in her.

[Itskyla]

Omg omg omg that's the first time I heard her real voice she British like what omg

[brentage]

This is the type of video I was waiting for, one about the tails and underwater filming. Actually surprised that they're digital, since I was expecting a ton of underwater makeup and fake tails

[ranvbb]

I really hope season 2 gets more audience viewers so they could have a budget for season 3. I really love this show.

[abbysheyba]

It's weird to see Ryn actually talk like a human. I didn't even think she looks the same in real life, I thought her face was kinda altered to get the unnatural symmetry to distinguish her as a mermaid. But, it looks like it's all her, no feature manipulations whatsoever. A beautiful person and a unique, perfect choice to play mermaid.

[RealTakerslady]

She is adorable and her bone structure is fab

[guinnevereschronicles]

Am I the only one that thinks that she came from another world because her beauty is so alluring and otherworldly and her eyes are so alien like but magnificent

[ashleybanks]

Is it just me or does anyone else feel satisfied after hearing her real voice

[usernamedaily]

she is the PERFECT person for this role. It's just unbeliveable, she can talk like a normal person 🙈😅

[jamiesmitje]

If she told me she were a mermaid or siren in real life, i would just believe her because she looks so unique and out of this world!

[sabaazher]

WTF!!? She’s 29!!😱I thought she’s 16 or something..??!!

[Bengo]

Ryn is love, Bengo is love. Ryn Bengo together

[obisistus]

I can't imagine a comic movie fan like me falling deeply for this series.
Seriously, it's unlike me and all kudos to the entire team that put up this amazing series. Love y'all.
Rynn, Ben, and Maddie are love ;)

[alexisbrodie]

Hearing her real voice was SO overwhelming for me 😂

[queenkitty]

Ryn is one of my all time favourite characters in a series. I love her. ❤
