Sunday afternoon
and Serinda Swan ("Graceland")
headline the cast of ABC's new
superhero show about a group of
superhumans born with incredi-
ble powers. In a blockbuster deal
with IMAX, the first two hours of
"Inhumans" is set to premiere in
1,000 IMAX theaters over Labor
Day weekend before moving to
TV screens following a two-week
theatrical run.
Mount stars as Black Bolt, the
king of the Inhumans, who pos-
sesses a voice that carries so
much power that he cannot
speak — even a whisper could
level whole cities. Swan stars as
Black Bolt's queen and most
trusted adviser, Medusa, who has
the ability to control her hair with
the same dexterity that ordinary
people control their hands.
Ken Leung ("The Night Shift"),
Isabelle Cornish ("Home and
Away"), Eme Ikwuakor ("Ink,"
2009) and Mike Moh ("Empire")
have been cast as the remaining
members of Black Bolt's royal
family of Inhumans, with Ellen
Woglom ("Californication") and
Sonya Balmores ("Beyond the
Break") rounding out the main
cast.
Black Bolt and the Inhumans,
who were created by comic book
legends Stan Lee and Jack Kirby,
made their first appearance in
Marvel comics in 1965. Until now,
they've only had cameos in other
superhero series, but come Sep-
tember, this loved group of super-
powerful superhumans will final-
ly have a major feature to call
their own.
Game on: Ellen DeGeneres is
moving in on prime time. The co-
median's syndicated talk show,
"The Ellen DeGeneres Show," is
known for the off-the-wall games
that it plops its audience mem-
bers into, and now, DeGeneres
and NBC are teaming up to give
those games their own home.
"Ellen's Game of Games" has
been given a six-episode order at
the peacock network, with no re-
lease date yet set.
Every hour-long episode will
borrow heavily from the games
that have been honed over the
years on DeGeneres's talk show,
supersizing them for a full game
show format while also coming
up with some entirely new and
unique ideas.
"I'm so excited to be hosting a
huge prime-time game show for
NBC," DeGeneres said in a state-
ment. "We're pulling out all the
stops — gigantic sets, hilarious
games. It's going to be like a com-
bination of 'American Ninja War-
rior,' 'RuPaul's Drag Race' and a
water park. OK, it's nothing like
that, but you should still watch."
Some of the games that fre-
quently pop up in "The Ellen De-
Generes Show" include "Make It
Rain," "What's in the Box?" and
"5 Second Rule," although
there's been no word on which of
them will make the transition to
"Ellen's Game of Games."
