Renee O’Connor, a successful actress and filmmaker is best known for playing the role of Gabrielle, Xena’s trusted sidekick on the popular series Xena:Warrior Princess from 1996-2001.

In 2002, she then moved on to launch her own film and production company ROC Productions. Recently, Renee finished production on her second feature film, Watch The Sky, a Science Fiction Family film, due for release 2019.

Prior to her breakout role, Renee lived in Texas and began her professional film career at the age of 17, starring in the serial Teen Angel, a regular feature on the Disney Channel’s The Mickey Mouse Club. Other credits include the Disney film, The Adventures of Huck Finn with Eiijah Wood and television movies such as Follow The River with Ellen Burstyn, Danielle Steele’s Changes with Cheryl Ladd, the second Rockford Files reunion movie with James Garner, and Hercules and the Lost Kingdom with Anthony Quinn and Kevin Sorbo. She also starred in several independent films, including Ghost House Pictures’ Boogeyman 2 opposite Tobin Bell: The ScyFy Channel’s Monster Ark opposite Tim DeKay and Alien Apocalypse opposite Bruce Campbell. She starred in the action web series ARK from Judah/Sacks (executive Producer of 90210 and Diary Of A Wimpy Kid) and faith based films Beyond the Farthest Star from Pathlight Entertainment and a Question of Faith from Silver Living Entertainment. Some of her favorite stage roles are “Ms Brill” (Mary Poppins), ‘Lady Macbeth) and next, she will be performing the role of the ‘Nurse’ with the Southern Shakespeare Company’s production of Romeo and Juliet, at the Cascades Amphitheater in Tallahassee, Florida alongside her side of her son, Miles who will be performing as Romeo.

Cursed tells a reimagined story of King Arthur and Excalibur, flipping the script and centering Nimue, the mythical Lady of the Lake, as the series' hero. The series premiered on Netflix and quickly claimed the top spot on the streaming service. While fans wait on news of a potential Season 2, we've compiled some similar shows worth checking out. If you liked the mystical elements of Cursed, then you'll likely enjoy these eight fantasy series too.

#4 Xena: Warrior Princess

A cult classic. If you rewatch (or watch for the first time), you’ll find that Cursed is reminiscent of the spirit of Xena: Warrior Princess. Lucy Lawless’ Xena has become an icon for good reason: the show has influenced so many of the fantasy series that have come after. Xena sets off on a quest to atone for her sins. Xena: Warrior Princess is full of spectacular locations, great character dynamics (hello, Xena and Gabrielle!), and awesome fight sequences.
