Ahead of the miniseries debut in on the big screen, IMAX released a new video featuring stars Serinda Swan, Anson Mount, and Iwan Rheon talking about the new series and the use of IMAX cameras.
“I think what sets Inhumans apart from most anything else that’s on television,” Mount began, “they’re so well drawn because their powers- I don’t think of them as powers, I think of them as burdens. You take Black Bolt; he has a voice so powerful he can shatter planets but because of that he can’t speak.”
Mount then spoke about Rheon’s role in the series playing his character’s own brother.
“Then with Maximus, to have an antagonist whose primary motivational force is that he’s simply human, that’s great,” Mount added.
Swan spoke about the production of the series and the benefits of shooting with IMAX cameras.
“There was a precision that was brought to the set so that visually it’s just stunning,” Swan said.
Rheon teased the locations used in the show will offer a stark contrast that will be made more apparent in the theatrical version.
“What IMAX offers you is amazing, big, wide shots with all this beautiful, rich texture,” Rheon added. “And especially when you have the juxtaposition between Attilan, the very brutalist, cold backdrop against the beautiful, lush Hawaiian rainforest.”
IMAX also released a brand new poster by Karl Kerschl they are giving away in certain theaters, featuring Crystal and Lockjaw. Check it out:
Fans and critics have expressed concerns for the quality of the series, but we’ll get to see it for ourselves when Marvel’s The Inhumans premieres in IMAX theaters on September 1, followed by its debut on ABC on September 29.
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. After the Royal Family of Inhumans is splintered by a military coup, they barely escape to Hawaii where their surprising interactions with the lush world and humanity around them may prove to not only save them, but Earth itself.
