The Trailer for 'Cursed' Promises a Mythic Arthurian Adventure
The full trailer for Netflix's upcoming female-led Arthurian retelling, Cursed, is here, and it's pretty much everything we wanted it to be.
There's a group of red-robed monks busy hunting down the magical Fey folk, talking of a war against magic. A young woman called Nimue must deliver a very old and obviously very powerful sword to the legendary wizard known as Merlin. (Who may or may not have lost his magic.) Along the way, she meets a young man called Arthur, who takes a shine to her sword. And, of course, we get to see power shots of Nimue wielding the blade herself, atop a remarkable looking stone, and then using it to attack a group of those same Red Paladins with magic.
Was Cursed made in a lab just for me? It certainly looks that way.
