FX has greenlit the pilot for Seven Sisters, a psychological drama starring Elizabeth Olsen, with acclaimed filmmaker Sean Durkin (The Iron Claw, Martha Marcy May Marlene) set to direct.
A Mysterious Family Drama
Written by Will Arbery (Succession), Seven Sisters follows a tight-knit family that begins to unravel when one sister (played by Olsen) starts hearing a voice no one else can hear—forcing them all to confront long-buried secrets.
Reuniting Olsen & Durkin
This marks a long-awaited reunion between Olsen and Durkin, who first collaborated on the 2011 psychological thriller Martha Marcy May Marlene, a breakthrough role for Olsen.
Powerful Creative Team
- Will Arbery (Succession, Irma Vep) – Screenwriter
- Sean Durkin (The Iron Claw, Dead Ringers) – Director
- Garrett Basch (What We Do in the Shadows, Ripley) – Executive Producer
If FX moves forward with the series, it would be Basch’s fifth collaboration with the network, following hits like Devs and Reservation Dogs.

🔹 The Assessment (w/ Alicia Vikander) – Premiered at TIFF 2024
🔹 Eternity (w/ Miles Teller) – A24 romantic comedy
🔹 Panic Carefully (w/ Julia Roberts) – Warner Bros thriller
Will Seven Sisters Become FX’s Next Hit?
