Netflix
this
week
released
its
new
fantasy
show,
Cursed
starring
Katherine
Langford
in
the
lead
role.
The
show
is
adapted
from
an
illustrated
novel
of
the
same
name
by
Frank
Miller
and
Tom
Wheeler.
While
the
makers
were
expecting
the
show
to
take
off
the
same
way
Henry
Cavill's
The
Witcher
did
earlier
this
year,
critics
have
given
mixed
reviews.
However,
fans
have
also
given
the
verdict
on
Twitter
and
are
impressed
by
the
show.
The
story
is
a
twist
of
King
Arthur's
tale
and
stars
the
13
Reasons
Why
fame,
Katherine
Langford
as
Nimue.
Katherine
can
be
seen
playing
the
role
of
Lady
Of
The
Lake
who
was
the
chosen
queen
by
Arthur's
Sword
of
Power.
The
show
follows
Nimue
as
she
has
been
tasked
by
her
dying
mother
to
hand
the
Sword
of
Power
to
Merlin,
while
mortals
Kings
try
to
acquire
it
for
their
own
gain.
The
show's
official
synopsis
reads,
"Armed
with
mysterious
powers
and
a
legendary
sword,
young
rebel
Nimue
joins
forces
with
charming
mercenary
Arthur
on
a
mission
to
save
her
people."
Many
have
claimed
it
as
a
must-watch,
while
others
said
the
show
is
only
enjoyable
for
its
vast
cast
and
performances.
One
fan
has
even
given
up
on
her
weekend
to
think
about
the
show,
and
another
fan
said
that
he
is
glad
to
see
powerful
female
representation
on
screen.

No
hate
on
Katherine
Langford
she
is
talented..
but
the
world
building
in
this
Netflix
show
does
not
rly
make
sense,
despite
the
higher
budget
&
18+
TV
rating
