CURSED
is, as 'Deadline' reports, a re imagination of the Arthurian legend, told through the eyes of Nimue (Katherine Langford), a teenage heroine with a mysterious gift who is destined to become the powerful (and tragic) Lady of the Lake. After her mother’s death, she finds an unexpected partner in Arthur, a young mercenary, in a quest to find Merlin and deliver an ancient sword. Over the course of her journey, Nimue will become a symbol of courage and rebellion against the terrifying Red Paladins, and their complicit King Uther. It is a coming of age story whose themes are familiar to our own time: the
obliteration
of the natural world, religious terror, senseless war, and finding the
courage to lead in the face of the impossible.

| The series will be based on the comic book based on Arthurian legends |
I like shows from that time period, so this may be one I'll need to catch. We'll expect a trailer as soon as you find one available :)
ReplyDeletewe first have to follow up the whole casting process, hope they cast some nice gents in it too
DeleteFingers crossed for lots of nice gents in this one!
Deletewe do love our mediaeval boys on the telly.
Delete"Cursed" sounds like a fresh take on the Arthurian legends, which have been done to death over the last 10 years, quite frankly.
ReplyDeletehope they don't do it too teensy, I couldn't handle that
DeleteI love the Arthurian legends so I'll be keeping an eye on this :)
ReplyDeletehope it will be epic!
DeleteI would watch that show just out of curiosity and Katherine Langford’s performance could be stellar. I wonder if Netflix is trying to pull off an iconic winner for the ages, like what Game of Thrones is doing for HBO.
ReplyDeleteI'd hardly call GOT iconic, that one is poorly done in almost every respect. I just hope it won't poison and corrupt the youngsters with violence and base primitivity like that one. It is American after all... not British or European... so it makes me reserved a bit.
