In the almost two-minute teaser, Ryn suddenly arrives in the city out of nowhere. She roams the streets and chances upon a woman who immediately realizes that she’s not human. The same woman is related to Ben because in the clip, the two have a confrontation about mermaids. Ben is interested in learning more about the creature, but the elderly woman doesn’t want to tell him anything else.

Also in the teaser, Ryn and Ben will have an encounter with each other. When he tries to approach her, Ryn seems terrified. But this feeling did not last when Ben tells her that he will not hurt her. By the looks of it, Ryn and Ben will develop a special bond, but the people in their town may not be supportive of it. When Ben tries telling his friends that mermaids are real, they all laugh at him.

“Siren” also stars Fola Evans-Akingbola, Ian Verdun and Rena Owen. The series is based on a story penned by Eric Wald and Dean White. “Siren” is slated for release on Freeform sometime next year.
