‘Inhumans’ trailer introduces bizarre, strange family headed to ABC
“The Inhumans are a weird bunch” was how Slash Film introduced their coverage of the Inhumans trailer.
Marvel ended their attempt to adapt the comic book into a full feature film and decided on an ABC spin-off from their success Agents of SHIELD show.
The Inhumans are the descendants of humans experimented on by the alien race known as the Kree, who wanted to transform early homo sapiens into a weapon against their arch-enemies, the Skrulls. When exposed to a substance known as Terrigen Mist, an Inhuman gains extraordinary abilities, often taking on a monstrous or majestic new physical appearance. While there are Inhumans scattered across Earth, unaware of what’s lurking within their DNA, the bulk of these stories focus on the Inhuman royal family: the mute but powerful Black Bolt, his wife Medusa, and their various family members, allies and enemies.
Check out the trailer at the bottom.
Inhumans stars Anson Mount as Black Bolt, Iwan Rheon as Maximus, Serinda Swan as Medusa, Eme Ikwuakor as Gorgon, Isabelle Cornish as Crystal, Ken Leung as Karnak, Ellen Woglom as an undisclosed character, Sonya Balmores as Auran, and Mike Moh as Triton.
Henry Ian Cusick (The 100, LOST) has joined the cast as Dr. Evan Declan.
The first two episodes will premiere in IMAX theaters on September 1, 2017 for an abbreviated two-week run. The series will premiere on ABC proper on September 29, 2017.
Here’s the official synopsis:
After the Royal Family of Inhumans is splintered by a military coup, they barely escape to Hawaii where their surprising interactions with the lush world and humanity around them may prove to not only save them, but Earth itself.
