Ahead of its Upfront presentation later today, Freeform released several trailers for new shows and made a few announcements. First, the cable channel announced that SIREN has officially been picked up for a third season. The second half of season 2 will premiere on Thursday, June 13.
Freeform released a trailer for MOTHERLAND: FORT SALEM, the show is set in “an alternate America where witches ended their persecution over 300 years ago by cutting a deal with the government to fight for their country.” It “follows three young women from basic training in combat magic into early deployment. In this world, the traditional roles of gender and power are flipped, with the more dominant women on the front lines fighting looming terrorist threats that are familiar to our world—but with supernatural tactics and weapons.” The show stars Ashley Nicole Williams, Jessica Sutton, Taylor Hickson, Demetria McKinney and Amalia Holm.
A trailer was also released for PARTY OF FIVE. The reboot series will “follow the five Acosta children as they navigate daily life struggles to survive as a family unit after their parents are suddenly deported back to Mexico.” The series stars Brandon Larracuente, Emily Tosta, Niko Guardado and Elle Paris Legaspi.
Finally, a trailer was released for EVERYTHING’S GONNA BE OKAY. The show “introduces Nicholas (Josh Thomas), a neurotic 25-year-old visiting his single dad and two teenage half-sisters, one of whom is on the autism spectrum. He hasn’t been particularly present in his siblings’ lives, but when their dad reveals that he is terminally ill, the girls have to cope with not only a devastating loss but also the realization that Nicholas is the one who will have to rise to the occasion, move in and hold it all together.”
