Netflix Arthurian Fantasy Drama 'Cursed' to Premiere in July

Netflix fantasy drama Cursed, a female-focused retelling of the King Arthur legend from the perspective of the Lady of the Lake, will officially premiere this July.

An adaptation of a YA graphic novel from author Tom Wheeler and illustrated by Frank Miller, the series will aim to tell the story of Nimue, the magical sorceress who gives Arthur the sword that changes his life in many versions of the legend. (And who infrequently has little in the way of a voice of her own.)

Here, however, she’s just a young woman attempting to figure out who she is even as she attempts to fulfill a dangerous quest.
