Medusa's Powers Are Unleashed In New Inhumans Clip

Medusa's hair-raising abilities are in action in a new clip from Marvel's upcoming ABC series Inhumans. The clip features Medusa (Serinda Swan) using her superpowered hair to rebuff the advances of Maximus (Iwan Rheon), who proposes that she ditch her husband Black Bolt (Anson Mount) to try being with him.

The Inhumans series, which came into the picture after the planned movie about the characters was canceled, will follow the powerful royal family of Attilan after they are splintered by a military coup led by Maximus. This forces Black Bolt, the silent king, to take the family on the run to Hawaii, where their interactions with humanity could not only save them but the whole world.

The series features an extensive ensemble cast, including Isabelle Cornish as Medusa's younger sister Crystal (who has a sidekick in the 2,000 pound teleporting bulldog Lockjaw), Eme Ikwauakor as the leader of the Attilan military, Ken Leung as Black Bolt's trusted advisor Karnak, Mike Moh as Black Bolt's cousin Triton, Sonya Balmores as the no-nonsense head of the Royal Guards of Attilan, and Ellen Woglom and Henry Ian Cusick as new characters created for the show.

Fittingly with the series' epic scale, Inhumans is set to get a mega-sized premiere, with the first two episodes holding a two-week berth in IMAX theaters beginning Sept. 1 before moving over to the small screen on Sept. 29. The series will anchor ABC's Friday night genre programming block, airing at 9 p.m. following Once Upon a Time. While we wait for the show to premiere, see why the finished product will be better than you think.
