Netflix is cooking up a fantasy series with Katherine Langford after the series which made her a global sensation, 13 Reasons Why is coming for a final season this June. ‘Cursed’ is based on a Young-Adult illustrated novel of the same name, written by Tom Wheeler and illustrated by Frank Miller.

Release Date

‘Curse’ will cast a spell on Netflix on 17^th July, 2020, Friday. The filming took off in March last year and concluded in September. This means the production is aloof from the freezing touch of the ongoing pandemic crisis. Though COVID-19 may have affected the promoting events for the series but be rest assured the release date of the show will remain untouched.

We will see Devon Turell as King Arthur, Gutsaf Skarsgard as Merlin, Ólafur Darri Ólafsson as Rugen The Leper King, Jóhannes Haukur Jóhannesson as Cumber the Ice King, Bella Dayne as Red Spear, Perry Fitzpatrick as Bu’Luf, Matt Stokoe as Gawain, Natasha Culzac as Isma, Tobi King Bakare as Josse, Olwen Fouéré as Yeva and Jennifer Saayeng as Druna.

Plot

Cursed by Tom Wheeler is not a comic book but a historical fantasy novel containing illustrations by Frank Miller. It retells the tale of the advent of King Arthur from Lady of the Lake’s vantage point. This take on the Arthurian legend is created with the young and rebellious girl Nimue in the center. After the passing of her mother, Nimue seeks the help of the courageous to-be-king Arthur for her journey to hand over an ancient and powerful sword to Merlin the Wizard. The first season would most likely focus on the adventures and the obstacles faced by the duo on their mission of passing on the sword to the rightful while swaying it away from evil hands.

Trailer

No trailer or teaser has been out yet. But it is likely that promotional material for the series will be out soon, as the release date does not stand very far.
