Needless to say, her performance as Hannah Baker in Thirteen Reasons Why is worthy of an applause. She is back with this American web drama series ‘Cursed’ premiering on 17th July. It is based on a novel of the same name by Frank Miller and Tom Wheeler. “Led by Katherine Langford, who is equal parts classic hero and sword-swinging badass, this extraordinary cast has brought such depth, commitment and heart to this story. We can’t wait to introduce them to audiences around the world,” said Wheeler to an entertainment channel earlier.
It depicts and tells the story of King Arthur (played by Devon Terrell) but there’s a twist! The story is flipped and is from Nimune (played by Katherine) perspective. Arthur was the one who retrieves the sword but in Cursed, it’s her who ends up with the sword called Excalibur. Nimune is destined to become the Lady of the Lake- courageous, powerful and unstoppable. After the death of her mother, Nimune teams up with Arthur to deliver the sword to Merlin and defeat King Uther, the father of Arthur.
It will be released as a 10 episode series on Netflix. The trailer and poster of Cursed is out and is a treat for all the fans. Did this line (as seen in the trailer), “But what if the sword chooses a queen?” give you goosebumps too? If yes, add it to your watchlist right away!
