Marvel's INHUMANS Finds its Karnak in a Former LOST Actor



Marvel's INHUMANS television show is amassing itself a very nice main cast. We already know Anson Mount will be Black Bolt, Iwan Rheon is Maximus and Serinda Swan will be Medusa. Up next, Karnak.

Marvel has officially announced actor Ken Leung (STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS, LOST) has landed the role of Karnak and here's a few interesting bits from their press release:

Prominent actor Ken Leung (“Night Shift,” “Star Wars: The Force Awakens,” “Lost”) has landed the key role of Karnak in the “Marvel’s Inhumans” television series for ABC. 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. 
“Marvel’s Inhumans” explores the never-before-told epic adventure of the royal family including Black Bolt, the enigmatic, commanding King of the Inhumans, with a voice so powerful that the slightest whisper can destroy a city. 
“Ken brings both a wisdom and a power to the role that no one else could match. His Karnak will be awesome,” said Executive Producer, Jeph Loeb. 
Executive Producer Scott Buck added: “Ken Leung has a great natural intelligence that reads clearly and will add depth and complexity to the very complicated character of Karnak.”

Marvel's INHUMANS will debut its first two episodes in IMAX starting Labor Day weekend later this year. Followed by its premiere on ABC with added content to those two episodes.
