Netflix has set April 9 for the premiere of Dan Levy‘s upcoming family crime comedy series Big Mistakes. The streamer also released the first trailer, which you can see above.
Levy, Taylor Ortega and Laurie Metcalf star along with Abby Quinn, Boran Kuzum, Jack Innanen, Elizabeth Perkins, Mark Ivanir, Ilia Volok, Jacob Gutierrez, Joe Barbara and Darren Goldstein.
Created and executive produced Levy and Rachel Sennott, Big Mistakes follows Nicky (Levy) and Morgan (Taylor Ortega), two deeply incapable siblings who are in over their heads when a misguided theft for their dying grandmother accidentally pulls them into the world of organized crime. Blackmailed into increasingly dangerous assignments, they clumsily fail upwards, sinking deeper into chaos they’re ill-equipped to handle.
If you were paying close attention earlier this week, you might have noticed a mysterious billboard on L.A.’s Sunset Boulevard featuring a diamond necklace spelling out “4.9.26” with no context about what it referred to. Later that night, an AR Video of the necklace being “stolen” off the billboard was posted on Netflix’s social channels. Then yesterday, elfies of Levy, Ortega, Metcalf, Quinn, Kuzum and Innanen were posted on Netflix’s channels, each wearing the “stolen” necklace, revealing them to be the culprits behind the heist. That was the lead-up to the series’ date announcement and “trailer tomorrow” release.

Big Mistakes is the first series from Levy’s overall television deal with Netflix and marks his second original scripted series following the success of the Emmy-winning show Schitt’s Creek. Levy made his feature directorial debut as part of his creative partnership with Netflix in 2023 with Good Grief, which he also wrote and starred alongside Ruth Negga, Himesh Patel and Luke Evans.
Levy also serves as showrunner. Anne-Marie McGintee executive produces for Not a Real Production Company, along with Dean Holland (Eps 101, 102), Etan Frankel and Timothy Greenberg.
