THE 100 Actor Henry Ian Cusick Confirms His Role In Marvel's INHUMANS; Offers New Details On His Character
An IMDB listing gave way to a rumor that former LOST alum Henry Ian Cusick had joined the cast of Marvel's Inhumans, and now the Scottish actor has confirmed that he will be a part of the show...
A couple of weeks back, a rumor began doing the rounds that Henry Ian Cusick (The 100, LOST) has joined the cast of Marvel's Inhumans. We didn't report on it at the time because it originated on IMDB (sometimes accurate, more often fabricated) but it turns out this one was on the level.
During an interview with CinemaBlend, Cusick confirmed that he had indeed signed on for a role in the ABC TV series, and also shared some details on his character:
"I play a geneticist and his name is Dr. Evan Declan and he's human. I think that says quite a lot already, if you know the comics, you know where the Inhumans are coming from, so that's pretty much my character."
As far as we know, Declan is not an established Marvel Comics character, but there are any number of mad scientist types that could have influenced his creation for the show. There's also a chance the name is misdirect and he'll turn out to be a more familiar face.
Whoever he is, it definitely sounds like Cusick's character is going to have a direct link to the emergence of The Inhumans.
Marvel's Inhumans will make its debut in IMAX on September 1, before premiering on ABC in February.
