Netflix Has Baby Fever Again; More Stars Join Sirens

Season two of the Danish romantic comedy-drama, Baby Fever, starring Josephine Park in the leading role, will launch on Netflix globally on August 22, 2024. The fertility doctor Nana is back - now as mother to a two-month-old baby. But Nana hates being on maternity leave. Surrounded by pizza boxes, baby lullabies and sheer boredom, she makes the drastic decision to beg her old boss, Helle, to give her back her job. Helle agrees, but only if Nana can start tomorrow. Now in desperate need for a babysitter, the only option is her eccentric mother, the dansktop singer, Lisa LaCour, who as a babysitter arrangement from hell moves into Nana's tiny apartment. At Dovi, Helle has hired a new star doctor, the flawless Hampus, who with his Swedish perfectness makes it difficult for Nana to reclaim her rockstar status at the clinic. Just when Nana thinks it can't get any worse, she bumps into her old flame, Mathias, who still doesn't know he's the father to her child. More than ever, Nana feels tempted to lie, but more than ever she should tell the truth.
Cast: Josephine Park, Olivia Joof, Simon Sears, Tammi Øst, Mikael Birkkjær, Charlotte Munck, Oscar Töringe, Trisha Fernández m.fl.
Netflix announced that Kevin Bacon (City on a Hill, MaXXXine, Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F) and Glenn Howerton (Blackberry, Always Sunny in Philadelphia) have joined the Netflix limited series Sirens. They join previously announced cast Julianne Moore, Meghann Fahy and Milly Alcock. The series is a female-driven, dark comedy limited series created by Emmy-nominated writer and showrunner Molly Smith Metzler (Maid) and executive produced by LuckyChap. Devon thinks her sister Simone has a really creepy relationship with her new boss, the enigmatic socialite Michaela Kell. Michaela's cult-ish life of luxury is like a drug to Simone, and Devon has decided it's time for an intervention. When Devon tracks her sister down to say WTF, she has no idea what a formidable opponent Michaela will be. Told over the course of one explosive weekend at The Kells' lavish beach estate, Sirens is an incisive, sexy, and darkly funny exploration of women, power, and class.
