Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen may have tested Camila Morrone’s hopeless romanticism to the nth degree, but she still believes in the concept of soulmates, albeit with a few caveats.
Created by Haley Z. Boston, Something Very Bad is a heightened exploration of the angst involved in choosing the right partner. The eight-episode Netflix horror series chronicles the five days leading up to the impending nuptials between Rachel Harkin (Morrone) and Nicky Cunningham (Adam DiMarco) at the latter’s remote family lodge in upstate New York. From overzealous in-laws-to-be to an ancient family curse, Rachel eventually learns the hard way that Nicky is not the one. But she still exits stage left with a sense of optimism in who and what lies ahead for her.
For Morrone, the notion of soulmates is more nuanced and pragmatic than the stereotypical version that pop culture often presents, but she continues to keep an open mind.
