'Siren' Stars Eline Powell & Alex Roe Reveal If They Actually Believe in Mermaids

Alex Roe and Eline Powell star in a show about mermaids on Freeform, but the question remains – do they actually believe in mermaids?

The Siren stars spoke to Hidden Remote in a new interview and revealed that they kind of do.

“I don’t know if they would be the way we imagine it, but there is a hint of this — the way species evolve on the water — a lot of mammals have very similar traits, and it’s because the water forces them to look a certain way,” Eline shared about the possibility.

She adds, “There ever been a branch of human species that have gone in there and ended up looking more aquatic than we can imagine? Why not? The sea wipes out so much evidence of those things, especially if they went deep.”

“I’m not claiming that there is, but why not? We don’t know; there’s so much we don’t know. I’m open-minded to it.”

Alex added, “A lot of people are pretty sure that an alien life exists, and I think there’s something really intriguing about this unexplored depth of the ocean. Why not, mermaids?”
