Lionsgate Play and PLDT Home subscribers are in for a treat later this month as they will be able to stream the satirical black comedy thriller series, “The Curse.” The first eight episodes of the series will be available for streaming from Dec. 29.
In “The Curse,” Nathan Fielder and Emma Stone star as Asher and Whitney, a newlywed couple with ambitious plans to bring their eco-conscious housing vision to Española, New Mexico. However, their plans are complicated by a supposed curse and Dougie (Benny Safdie), a flawed reality TV producer who sees potential in their story. As the series progresses, the couple becomes entangled in a complex web of ethical dilemmas while also navigating the challenges of maintaining their relationship and trying to start a family.
