7 Katherine Langford Starred In The First Two Seasons Of '13 Reasons Why'

Currently, 13 Reasons Why has a 7.5 rating on IMDb.
Here's what the actress has said about the role: "I think I’m starting to give myself more credit for it. But at the time it was the first thing that I’d ever done, so I took it all at surface value I think. That experience was my only experience on a film set. It’s a role that I’m very grateful to have played, and a story that I’m grateful to have told. But yeah, when I look back now, I think that was probably the hardest first role to have for a number of reasons. But for an overwhelming number of other reasons it was also the best."

2 As Well As The Fantasy Drama Show 'Cursed'
In 2020 the actress also starred in the Netflix fantasy drama show Cursed.

Unfortunately, the fantasy show was canceled in July 2021 after only one season. Currently, Cursed has a 5.9 rating on IMDb. Here's what Langford said about the show:
"I grew up such a fan of the fantasy genre and sci-fi and I love history, and the Arthurian Legends are age-old folk tales that have been told for generations, but the one thing about them is that they’re nearly 100% male. I think the significance is telling these incredible stories of heroism and seeing a woman as a hero, but not just as a hero, seeing her as a true heroine. That means incorporating all of the things that a woman would have had to overcome to become a heroine, not just following a man’s story of what a hero is. It’s facing and acknowledging everything that she would’ve had to have gone through. I think there’s a lot to be taken from that, and it was definitely an incredible experience."
