The Curse official trailer: Emma Stone and Nathan Fielder are hexed by a child in unsettling home renovation satire series with Benny Safdie
Emma Stone and Nathan Fielder star in the official trailer of The Curse which was released on Thursday.
The actress, 34, and the comedian, 40, play a newly married couple facing an alleged curse threatening to turn their relationship upside down in the Showtime series.
According to the synopsis, the pair portray Whitney and Asher Siegel, who face unsettling occurrences while filming their home renovation show in New Mexico.
The trailer begins with a confused-looking Stone speaking to someone off camera and saying: 'This doesn't make sense.'
Cue a quick-paced montage of chaotic scenes showing the La La Land star as Whitney — who showed off her acting chops in a short teaser and first-look photos released in September — and Fielder as Asher as they are met with drama.

'There's no such thing as a perfect city,' she narrates over scenes of flawless scenes of the newly married couple smiling and enjoying wholesome moments together.
'But to me, this city is as close as it comes,' she continues. 'That's why we're proud to call Española my home.'
'Oh, s***,' she exclaims as she messes up the take, revealing she was only saying the picture perfect description of the city while recording a voiceover in a closet. 'Our home.'
As her producer reassures her that 'it's OK', she exclaims: 'Oh God.'
'This isn't your typical home-flipping show,' she is later heard saying over a scene of her posing with a camera while Asher holds up an overhead boom mic above her.
It is then shown that the pair aren't actually filming the show themselves as there is a whole crew watching them pose with the equipment as props.
'My homes are reflecting the local community,' she is then heard saying as she takes her husband and a home buyer through a tour of an abode covered in reflective mirror film — seemingly mismatched in a suburban neighborhood with less modern and more classic exteriors.
She smiles animatedly and enthusiastically waves for the camera to follow her as she tours the newly 'renovated' home.

Sudden surprise: At one point, she asks a premonitory question: 'So what could go wrong?'
The scene then cuts to Whitney and Asher sitting in front of another camera as they film close-up 'candid' shots in a parking lot.
'And we're husband and wife,' she says as she continues the narration for their show.
To their laughter, she asks a premonitory question: 'So what could go wrong?'
Then, Asher is seen being directed by a crew member to film 'a quick shot of you giving money to that little girl over there'.
He opens his wallet and sees only a $100 bill. Then, he gives it to the child but with a little hesitation on camera.
'We're doing good here,' he says with gusto in a scene where he is talking to someone in a diner. 'We are good people.'
Later, he is seen going back to the young girl and her family member asking if he can have his money back.
To which, the little girl simply responds to Asher's dismay: 'I curse you.'
