Langford will play Nimue of Arthurian legend in the adaptation of the illustrated novel by Thomas Wheeler and Frank Miller. Nimue is “a teenage heroine with a mysterious gift who is destined to become the powerful (and tragic) Lady of the Lake,” according to the series logline.

Cursed will follow Nimue’s adventures with a mercenary named Arthur after her mother dies and the pair search for Merlin to bring him the ancient sword.

“They came while we slept, to cleanse the world of our kind. Because we’re different. Because magic runs through us,” Langford says in the short trailer. “Because we have what they want. Legend says this sword belongs to the one, true king. But what if the sword chooses a queen?” she continues.

Also starring in the series are Devon Terrell (Barry), Gustaf Skarsgard (Vikings), Sebastian Armesto (Broadchurch), and Matt Stokoe (Bodyguard).

Cursed will debut on Netflix on July 17 and you can watch the trailer below.

Netflix has dropped the first image from its re-imagining of Cursed, based on Tom Wheeler’s forthcoming illustrated young adult novel of the same name, starring the 13 Reasons Why actress. 

The image that was shared via Netflix’s official Twitter features Langford holding a sword and seemingly getting ready to fight. The post also revealed that the show is coming to the streaming giant in 2020. 

Per the official logline: “Cursed is a re-imagining of the Arthurian legend, told through the eyes of Nimue, 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.”

Netflix describes this exciting drama as a fresh take on the Arthurian legend. It centers on teenager Nimue who joins forces with mercenary Arthur on a quest to find Merlin and deliver an ancient sword.

Cursed is based on a book by Frank Miller and Tom Wheeler, so it doesn’t come as a surprise it won’t be your classic “damsel in distress” fairy tale. It re-imagines the legend we all know and love and allows us to see the story through the eyes of a teenager who goes on to become the famous Lady of the Lake.

The reason Netflix picked up this project is that they were captivated by its themes, 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.

Katherine Langford decided to join Cursed a few months after leaving hit teen drama 13 Reasons Why, which transformed her into an overnight sensation. The young actress said this show will always be an important part of her life, but she felt it’s time to say goodbye after fully telling Hannah Baker’s story.
