Inhumans
Release info: September 1st (cinematic release)/September 26th (TV release), ABC.
Cast: Anson Mount is Black Bolt, the Inhuman king, while Serinda Swan is his queen, Medusa. Iwan Rheon, meanwhile, is Black Bolt’s brother Maximus, who thirsts after the throne, while Ken Leung is the king’s cousin and closest advisor, Karnak. Other roles are played by Eme Ikwuakor (Gorgon), Isabelle Cornish (Crystal), Mike Moh (Triton), Sonya Balmores (Auran) and Ellen Woglom in an undisclosed part.
Crew: Marvel have entrusted Inhumans in the care of showrunner Scott Buck, who also serves the same role on Iron Fist.
What to expect: After the concept of Inhumans has been introduced in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., this show will focus on the royal family and the land of Attilan. In an ingenious move, Marvel will release the first two episodes in IMAX cinemas, two weeks before the eight episode series will air on TV.
Why you should be excited: As well as introducing an extensive fresh mythology to the MCU, Inhumans blurs the lines between Marvel’s movie and television output in perhaps their most ambitious show yet.
