After yr of ready, we reported again in April 2021 that Cursed has but to be renewed for season 2 and that as time ticked by it appeared more and more unlikely that it might.
We usually have to attend between 1-Three months to study of a present’s destiny on Netflix however this one (together with Letter for the King) has been lifeless quiet because the launch.
Early indicators the present was canceled was again in April once we noticed quite a few props from the collection had been discovered on eBay which could possibly be a nasty indication or that these props (that are largely insignificant to the story) simply aren’t wanted anymore.

“Netflix has quietly canceled the fantasy collection, based mostly on a key character from the King Arthur legend, after one season, I’ve discovered. The forged has been launched to pursue different alternatives.”
Opinions to the present had been in the end combined and we’ve by no means heard how effectively it did via a statistic launched by Netflix. We do understand it only spent round 3-Four weeks within the Netflix prime 10s in each the UK and US.
One optimistic signal for the return of the present is that Katherine Langford isn’t presently introduced for any new long-term tasks as of but.
What we anticipated to see from season 2 of Cursed
We’ve got a whole lot of questions needing to be answered from the second season of Cursed.
Did Nimue survive?
We knew of Nimue’s destiny due to the season’s opening scene, and it arguably, it wasn’t stunning that Iris dealt Nimue what could possibly be a possible loss of life blow.
This received’t be the tip of Nimue by any means, however the second season ought to see her transition into her position because the fabled Woman of the Lake.
We might also see the true potential of Nimue’s energy in season 2. In her grief of Gawain’s loss of life, Nimue tapped into the facility of The Hidden as soon as once more, sending a magical shockwave that rippled all through the Pendragon encampment. Simply after Nimue was grabbed by the Pink Paladins, Gawain’s physique was magically surrounded by grass and flowers. Is Gawain about to be resurrected?

Merlin’s energy returns
After spending a few many years with out magic, in his grief and rage on the “loss of life” of Nimue, Merlin wielded the Sword of Energy for the primary time in years, and because of this, his magical powers returned.
It’s unclear if Merlin must be wielding the sword to awaken his magical talents, or if his magic has now been reawakened upon utilizing the sword.
Regardless, Merlin swore he would by no means wield the sword once more, so when the time comes will Merlin have the ability to half with it? And, in doing so, will his magical talents be eliminated as soon as extra.

A Recreation of Thrones
Excuse the pun, however the apparent backstabbing, underhanded offers, and combat for the Pendragon crown are comparable to a different fantasy collection.
Uther Pendragon and Cumber the Ice King are but to lock horns, however neither are in possession of the Sword of Energy. By blood, Cumber is the rightful inheritor, however Uther has confirmed himself to be a succesful, albeit whiney, King.
The Church and the insurgent raider faction Pink Spear may flip the tide for both king. A lot of the subsequent season will see Uther and Cumber come to blows as they every combat for the precise to put on the crown.

Will Arthur ever turn into king?
Naturally, one of many many questions everybody has is whether or not or not Arthur will finally turn into king.
On this story, Arthur and Morgana are of low delivery, which suggests neither has a sound declare for the crown. We, actually, could by no means see Arthur ascend to the throne however Nimue could possibly be wildly influential in making this occur.
Assuming that each Uther and Cumber die, that leaves the crown and not using a king, which leaves the dominion in chaos. Already proving himself to be a worthy chief, and champion of the folks, that is when Arthur may ascend.

Will Arthur ever be in possession of Excalibur?
Probably the most well-known sword in fantasy lore, to wield Excalibur, or on this occasion, the Sword of Energy, grants the consumer untold and unparalleled talents.
Apart from Nimue, Arthur is probably going the one to turn into the wielder of the sword.
Some foreshadowing of this was given by Merlin regardless of the very fact he was placating to Cumber.
Those that chased the sword are doomed to obessesion. However those that are affected person who let the sword come to them are those with the knowledge to weild it
Arthur did steal the sword, to start with, however has since redeemed himself, displaying subsequent to little interest in taking the sword for himself.
