All hail the Queen!

Marvel announced Serinda Swan (“Ballers,” “Graceland”) will play Medusa in the Marvel’s Inhumans television series, the never-before-told adventure of the royal family. In this series, Medusa is described as Queen of the Inhumans and wife of Black Bolt — his most trusted advisor, a fiercely resilient warrior who has the ability to move and control her hair the way most people use their hands and fingers.

Medusa is one of the most powerful women in Marvel Comics. The Queen currently rules the Inhumans, vows to protect a new generation of new Inhumans and is currently at war with the X-Men.

In the upcoming television series Anson Mount will play her King, Black Bolt and Iwan Rheon will play his brother Maximus the Mad.

The first two episodes of the new ABC series will premiere exclusively in IMAX® theatres for a two-week window in September 2017, before an 8-episode run on ABC. Continue reading QUEEN MEDUSA Cast For MARVEL’S INHUMANS
