Swan Song centers on a $22 million summer home purchased by the mysterious Richardsons, who throw lavish parties, flirt with multiple locals, flaunt their wealth with not one but two yachts and set impossible expectations for everyone they meet. When their home burns to the ground and their most important employee goes missing, the entire island erupts.
The main characters, Leslee and Bill Richardson, are spiritual successors to Greer (Kidman) and Tag (Liev Schreiber) Winbury from season one.
The first season cast included Kidman, Schreiber, Eve Hewson, Billy Howle, Meghann Fahy, Donna Lynne Champlin, Jack Reynor, Michael Beach, Ishaan Khatter, Sam Nivola, Mia Isaac, and Dakota Fanning.
