Theodosia is a brand new fantasy adventure that’s just arrived on HBO Max. Set in 1906, the series follows Theo, a clever youngster who’s obsessed with everything to do with Ancient Egypt and is based on the Theodosia series of childrens’ novels by Robin L. LaFevers.

The new family-friendly series sees Theo discovering that Egyptian curses and magic are not simply myths but very real indeed, and this shocking revelation ends up thrusting her and her friends into a battle with a secretive society bent on destroying the world as it currently stands.

Featuring Estrid Barton as Lady Throckmorton.
