Anson Mount, who starred in 55 episodes of AMC’s “Hell on Wheels,” has been cast as superpowered ruler Black Bolt in ABC’s new Marvel series “The Inhumans,” which debuts in September.
Introduced in the December 1965 issue of Fantastic Four, the print version of Blackagar Boltagon developed the ability to level a city with his voice after he was exposed to the transformative Terragen Mist as an embryo.
Iwan Rheon, who played the sadistic Ramsay Bolton in “Game of Thrones,” will play Black Bolt’s younger brother Maximus.
Writer-producer Scott Buck (“Six Feet Under,” “Rome”) serves as showrunner on both ABC’s “Inhumans” and Netflix’s upcoming Marvel series “Iron Fist.”
Before joining “Hell on Wheels,” Mount, 44, played regular or recurring roles on “Third Watch,” “The Mountain,” “Line of Fire” and the 1996 legal drama “Conviction.”
