What's better than one Rachel Weisz performance? Two Rachel Weisz performances! And that's what the teaser for Prime Video's upcoming psychological thriller Dead Ringers promises us.

Dead Ringers is a modern take on David Cronenberg's 1988 film of the same name. Weisz plays twin doctors Elliot and Beverly Mantle, whose tendency to share everything from lovers to drugs takes them down a strange path. The same can be said of their willingness to push the boundaries of medical ethics. As one of the Mantles says forebodingly in the trailer, "Radicalism always begins with something small."

All six episodes of Dead Ringers premiere on Prime Video April 21.
