According to Deadline, Emma Stone is set to star in The Curse, the upcoming Showtime comedy series from Nathan Fielder and the Safdie brothers (a.k.a. Benny and Josh Safdie, the duo behind Uncut Gems) that we first heard about back in February. The series is about a married couple that A.) hosts a “problematic new HGTV show,” B.) is trying to conceive a child, and C.) may or may not be cursed. So there’s a lot going on here, and as we pointed out earlier this year, it bears more than a passing resemblance to a Nathan For You episode about a ghost realtor—and that is absolutely not a criticism, because it’s a great setup for a scripted TV show.
