The Inhumans casting continues to come in hot. The Night Shift alum Ken Leung is set to play the key role of Karnak opposite Anson Mount in Marvel’s Inhumans, the new ABC series that will get an Imax debut. In addition to Mount, Leung joins recently cast Serinda Swan (Medusa) and Iwan Rheon (Black Bolt’s brother, Maximus).
Marvel’s Inhumans will explore the never-before-told epic adventure of the royal family, including Black Bolt (Mount), the enigmatic, commanding King of the Inhumans, with a voice so powerful that the slightest whisper can destroy a city. Leung’s Karnak is Black Bolt’s cousin and closest advisor. His gift is an ability to see the fault in all things – people, plans, structures, everything. He’s Black Bolt’s most ardent supporter and strategist and is often seen as the royal family’s planner and philosopher.
The Inhumans were first introduced in Marvel Comics by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby in 1965. Since that time, they have grown in prominence and become some of the most popular and iconic characters in the Marvel Universe.
