Nellie Andreeva describes Cursed as “a re-imagining of the Arthurian legend, told through the eyes of Nimue, a young 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.” In another piece on that site, Andreeva calls the show “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.

“I have always been entranced by the mythological Arthur story—and by Nimue, in particular. It can be interpreted in any number of ways—from a delightful children’s story, as in The Sword in the Stone, to a terrifying interpretation like Excalibur,” Miller said in a statement when the book was announced last week.

Added Wheeler, “I am honored and humbled to be working with the living legend Frank Miller on Cursed. I cannot think of a writer-artist who has had a more formative impact on my growth as a storyteller.”

Miller is known for his comic book stories and graphic novels such as Ronin, Daredevil: Born Again, The Dark Knight Returns, Sin City, and 300. He also created the comic book characters Elektra, for Marvel Comics’ Daredevil series, and Carrie Kelley, for DC Comics.

Miller co-directed with Robert Rodriguez the feature Sin City and its sequel, based on his graphic novel, served as an executive producer on Zack Snyder’s blockbuster 300, also based on his own graphic novel, and wrote and directed The Spirit, an action fantasy based on the Will Eisner comic book series. He is with Nigro Karlin Segal and Feldstein and Franklin Weinrib.

Wheeler co-wrote Warner Bros’ Lego: Ninjago Movie. He also wrote the screenplay for Puss in Boots, a Shrek spin-off, and is currently penning its sequel. He recently sold his original screenplay, Vostok, to Paramount Pictures, with Michael Bay attached to direct, and just completed the script for a live-action feature, Dora the Explorer, with James Bobin attached to direct and a 2019 release date, also for Paramount Pictures. In TV, Wheeler created and executive produced the NBC superhero drama series The Cape and the ABC pilot Captain Cook’s Extraordinary Atlas.  He is repped by WME and Sloane Offer.

Netflix is taking a page from the fable of King Arthur.

The streaming giant has handed out a 10-episode, straight-to-series order for Cursed, a reimagining of the tale told through the eyes of a teen girl destined to become the Lady of the Lake. The drama hails from comic book great Frank Miller and Tom Wheeler and is based on the duo’s upcoming book of the same name.

Here’s how Netflix describes the companion TV series: “A reimagining 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.” Cursed tvseries download o2tvseries.

Miller and Wheeler co-created the series and will executive produce the project. Wheeler is writing the Simon and Schuster young adult novel, which Miller will illustrate.

“I have always been entranced by the mythological Arthur story — and by Nimue, in particular,” Miller said when the book was announced last week. “It can be interpreted in any number of ways — from a delightful children’s story, as in The Sword in the Stone, to a terrifying interpretation like Excalibur.

This tale represents an incredible opportunity and an exciting challenge for me as an illustrator, and I’m excited to collaborate on the story with Thomas Wheeler. I inherited a collection of antique children’s books from my mother, and I’ve always wanted to have a crack at it myself. This project is a dream come true.” Cursed tvseries download o2tvseries.

Cursed marks the latest of Miller’s works to be adapted for the screen, following Sin City, 300, Ronin, Daredevil and The Dark Knight Returns, among others.

Wheeler, meanwhile, co-wrote Warner Bros.’ The Lego Ninjago Movie and penned the screenplay for the Shrek spinoff Puss in Boots, while also working on the latter’s sequel. He recently completed the script for a live-action Dora the Explorer feature for Paramount. On the TV side, Wheeler’s credits include NBC’s shortlived superhero drama The Cape.
