AceShowbiz - A fresh trailer and exclusive first-look images have been unveiled for the upcoming Netflix series, Big Mistakes. Created and led by Emmy winner Dan Levy, this crime comedy marks a new chapter in his career following his success with Schitt’s Creek. Levy serves as the creator, showrunner, executive producer, and also stars alongside Taylor Ortega in this darkly humorous series.

Big Mistakes centers on siblings Nicky and Morgan, portrayed by Dan Levy and Taylor Ortega respectively, who accidentally become embroiled in criminal activities. Their chaotic journey begins after a misguided attempt to help their ailing grandmother results in the theft of a precious necklace. This impulsive act sets off a chain reaction, with the siblings soon blackmailed by dangerous figures connected to the stolen item, forcing them into a reluctant life of crime despite their obvious ineptitude.

The newly released trailer highlights the comedic tone of the series, juxtaposing scenes of Nicky delivering sermons in his role as a pastor with frantic moments of him and Morgan fumbling through various criminal assignments. The siblings’ consistent failures add a layer of humor to their increasingly perilous situation. Netflix also shared several first-look photos that provide a glimpse into the characters’ lives, featuring shots of the siblings on a boat, Nicky cooking in the kitchen with his mother, and lighter moments with friends. Other images hint at the looming threats they face, including tense scenes where Nicky appears to be under duress.

The show boasts an impressive ensemble cast alongside Levy and Ortega. Notable actors include Laurie Metcalf as Linda, Abby Quinn as Natalie, Boran Kuzum as Yusuf, Jack Innanen as Max, Elizabeth Perkins as Annette, Mark Ivanir as Ivan, Jacob Gutierrez as Tareq, Joe Barbara as Mike, and Darren Goldstein as Tom Donaldson, contributing to the series’ rich character tapestry.

Dan Levy first rose to prominence after co-creating and starring in the critically acclaimed and Emmy-winning series Schitt’s Creek, which he developed with his father, Eugene Levy. The show earned widespread acclaim and numerous awards for its writing, directing, producing, and acting. Building on this success, Levy continues to push creative boundaries with projects like Big Mistakes, blending dark humor with crime elements.

Big Mistakes is scheduled to premiere on Netflix on Thursday, April 9, 2026. In typical Netflix fashion, all eight episodes of the series will be released simultaneously, allowing viewers to binge the entire show at their own pace. This new series promises a mix of sharp wit, chaotic situations, and a fresh take on the crime comedy genre, positioning Dan Levy once again at the forefront of innovative television entertainment.
