Camila Morrone stars as Rachel Harkin in the feminist horror limited series "Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen." The story begins as Rachel arrives at her fiancé Nicky Cunningham's secluded family home in Upstate New York for their wedding. She soon discovers a terrifying family curse that targets women in the line of Harkin brides.
The series, created by Haley Z. Boston, delves into the sacrifices inherent in heterosexual marriage. Morrone portrays Rachel's escalating fear and resignation as she confronts the supernatural threat, a role she found dynamically challenging due to the character's anxious yet sharp personality.

"Something Very Bad" utilizes tight shots to capture Rachel's unease, with Morrone conveying anxiety through subtle movements and a powerful performance, notably in an amputation scene. She skillfully acts alongside veterans like Jennifer Jason Leigh and Adam DiMarco, finding natural chemistry with DiMarco.
Morrone expresses inspiration from acclaimed female performances across various genres, aspiring to explore roles akin to those played by Julia Roberts, Florence Pugh, and Jessica Chastain. She hopes to expand her acting repertoire into diverse cinematic styles.
