The upcoming female-led action thriller by Netflix was announced earlier in the year as part of the action movies and shows slated for 2023, although Variety had revealed the thriller series in 2022. Who is Erin Carter? offers a peek into the real life of Erin Carter--a mother, wife, and school teacher--played by Evin Ahmad, who previously appeared in Netflix's The Rain.
The official trailer, which was released on August 3, 2023, depicts Erin concealing her identity while starting a new life in Barcelona.
