Welsh actor Iwan Rheon, who played the villainous Ramsay Bolton in Game of Thrones, will play Maximus.
For any regular watchers of Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD, the Inhumans will be familiar. Daisy, YoYo, Lincoln (*sobs*) and many others are Inhuman. Marvel’s Inhumans will focus on Black Bolt and the rest of the Inhuman royal family. In the series, Maximus is a clever and charming Inhuman. He is fiercely devoted to the people of Attilan, especially his brother, the King – although he harbors an intense desire to wear the crown himself.
Jeph Loeb, the Head of Marvel Television and Executive Producer of the show had this to say.
“Iwan’s ability to be charming, roguish, and still completely unexpectedly dangerous were all the different sides we needed to bring the character to life. We’re thrilled to have him on board.”
A version of the first two episodes of Marvel’s Inhumans will premiere exclusively in IMAX® theatres in September 2017. It will then air on ABC.
