The remake of James Dearden’s Fatal Attraction by Paramount+ stars Alyssa Jirrels, Lizzy Caplan, and Joshua Jackson. Adrian Lyne earlier turned the sensual drama into a film. The film Fatal Attraction, starring Michael Douglas and Glenn Close, was critically praised at the time.

Joshua Jackson’s new take on the famous figure, as well as the plunge into the traditional tale in a modern-day setting, will undoubtedly be well received. Fatal Attraction viewing will be restricted to Paramount+, so it will be a little difficult for fans from all areas of the globe to participate in it. But the authors will undoubtedly find a solution. On March 1, 2023, a preview video for the forthcoming series was revealed. The series, written by Alexandra Cunningham and Kevin J. Hynes, will premiere on Paramount+ on April 30, 2023. When the first images of it were published in December 2022, it garnered news.

Unpacking the Fatal Attraction Remake video preview

Today, March 1, 2023, the newest teaser for the forthcoming version of the famous was unveiled. The one-minute-plus preview introduced the two major characters: Dan and Alex (performed by Joshua Jackson) (played by Lizzy Caplan). The on-screen rapport between Lizzy Caplan and Joshua Jackson sizzles as their characters engage in a heated love affair with obvious consequences.

The teaser also manages to provide a look into the fascinating universe of the series, which is a significant departure from the 1987 film.

According to the Fatal Attraction synopsis:

“In this reworking of the 1987 film, an affair affects the lives of Dan Gallagher and his wife, Beth, examining marriage and adultery through the prism of contemporary views toward powerful women, personality disorders, and oppressive control.”

Alexandra Cunningham, Justin Falvey, Darryl Frank, Kevin J. Hynes, Stanley R. Jaffe, Sherry Lansing, and Silver Tree will executive produce the new series remake of the famous tale. In addition, Paramount+ earlier stated that it would adopt prior features as TV series, including Flashdance, The Italian Job, Love Story, and The Parallax View.

Alexandra Cunningham, the show’s creator, writer, and executive producer, told Deadline:

“As a regularly melancholy, not at all dramatic, and not as lonely as I wish I was but under strain from a really demanding work, I wanted us to go in a slightly different path,” said the film’s author, James Dearden.

She went on to say:

“This reimagining of ‘Fatal Attraction’ shares many similarities with the iconic original film, but it is also about entitlement and midlife crisis, as well as how some of the sausages gets made in our broken justice system, Cluster B personality disorders, isolation of fathers and daughters, and murder.”

She went on to say:

“It’s about how some individuals simply cannot accept victory. It’s about self-esteem and what we’ll do to defend it, as well as what occurs when someone lacks it. And if we’ve done our work, which these performers and their peers undoubtedly did, they believe your feelings will change multiple times.”

On April 30, 2023, the first installment of Fatal Attraction will air on Paramount+.
