- Mar 4, 2017
AceShowbiz - Marvel Entertainment has announced the remaining cast for key roles of the "Marvel's Inhumans" TV series on ABC. Set to star on the Imax-produced series are Eme Ikwuakor, Isabelle Cornish, Mike Moh, Sonya Balmores and Ellen Woglom. Ikwuakor, Cornish and Moh will play the Royal Family members.
"We're thrilled with this cast. Eme, Isabelle, Mike, Sonya, and Ellen round out an incredible array of talent that will finally bring the Royal Family of the Inhumans to IMAX and ABC," Executive Producer Jeph Loeb says.
Executive producer and showrunner Scott Buck adds, "With Eme, Isabelle, Mike, Sonya, and Ellen portraying the rest of our leading roles, we have a strong cast that is going to add tremendous depth to our Royal Family."
Ikwuakor ("Concussion (2015)", "Extant") is cast as Gorgon, Black Bolt's cousin and Royal Family's member as well as Attilan's military leader. He can generate destructive seismic waves with a single stomp from his super strong legs, complete with hooves. The yin to his cousin Karnak's yang, Gorgon would rather fight than talk to solve his problems.
"Australia Day" and "Puberty Blues" actress Cornish will play Crystal, Medusa's sister. Crystal is the youngest member of the Royal Family and posseses the ability to control the elements. Impetuous and independent, she is also deeply devoted to her family.
Moh ("Empire", "Street Fighter: Assassin's Fist") is tapped to play Triton, Black Bolt's cousin. His character is calm under pressure and supremely athletic. His gift is his fish-like ability to live underwater.
"Beyond the Break" and "Soul Surfer" actress Balmores will play Auran on the series. Described as a capable and non-sense woman, Auran is the head of the Royal Guards on Attilan. She is fiercely loyal to the King of Attilan.
Meanwhile, Woglom ("Californication", "Outlaw") is set to play an undisclosed character. The character is described to be smart, intense and focused-so focused that oftentimes, social skills take a back seat. Her job at a private aerospace company is her life, second only to her passion for all things space and lunar. She's primed to be swept up in an adventure.
Along with the cast announcement, Marvel Entertainment also confirms that Lockjaw will be featured on the series. Lockjaw is Crystal's 2,000 lb canine companion with the ability to teleport.
Ikwuakor, Cornish, Moh, Balmores and Woglom will join the previously-announced cast members, which include Anson Mount as Black Bolt, Iwan Rheon as Maximus, Serinda Swan as the queen, Medusa, and Ken Leung as Karnak.
Buck and Loeb executive produce "Marvel's Inhumans" alongside Jim Chory. The Marvel and IMAX project series is co-produced by Marvel Television and ABC Studios.
Directed by Roel Reine ("The Delivery", "Black Sails"), the first two episodes will screen in IMAX theaters on September 1 and later will continue to air on ABC on September 26.
