The Trailer For Kristen Bell's New Netflix Show Is A Wild Fever Dream
The Woman in the House Across the Street from the Girl in the Window somehow looks both hilarious and terrifying.
Blurring genre lines is nothing new for Netflix, but its latest original series is taking things to an entirely new level. Its title alone will tell you that the thriller/comedy is totally unique. Partially spoofing a widely panned Amy Adams movie while also diving into a story of its own, The Woman in the House Across the Street from the Girl in the Window is definitely going to be a must-watch for anyone who loves a good murder mystery. Here’s what fans should know about The Woman in the House Across the Street from the Girl in the Window’s trailer, release date, and cast.
The totally unique title of The Woman in the House Across the Street from the Girl in the Window is a perfect tease for its blending of psychological drama and comedy. The name clearly references Netflix’s 2021 thriller The Woman in the Window, in which Amy Adams played a shut-in who witnesses a murder in a neighbor’s apartment but can’t get anyone to believe her. The new series will have a similar premise, but will also have fun with the comedy of that situation, with Kristen Bell at the helm to balance the laughs and dramatic beats.
Bell will star as Anna (the same name as Adams’ character in The Woman in the Window), a wine-loving homebody who takes notice of a handsome new neighbor (Tom Riley) and his daughter (Samsara Yett) from her window. After watching them for a while, Anna thinks she witnesses a murder, but given her highly medicated, wine-soaked lifestyle, she isn’t exactly sure what really happened.
