I have to share my excitement for one in particular. While I may do most of my work on Creators in Fan Casting Polls, this time I was so close to predicting a casting!

In my Inhumans Fan Cast, I had 3 choices to play Maximus. And guess who was chosen for the role?

None other than Iwan Rheon! So, I figured since I was on a role, I would share my thoughts on who should fill the other roles.

Next on the list?

Gorgon

Gorgon is a member of the Royal Family of the Inhumans. As the only son of architect Korath and archivist Milena, his parents were leading citizens of the Inhumans' city-state Attilan. Korath was also brother to Agon, who was the former king of the Inhumans. Gorgon is also a cousin to King Black Bolt and due to this relationship is considered a member of the Royal Family (Comicvine).

My top choices for this role are (from left to right) Aleks Paunovic (Numb), Sullivan Stapleton (Blindspot), and Nick Offerman (Parks and Recreation).

Even though there is rumor of The Walking Dead alum Owen Harn being up for the role, I think any of these actors would be great for the role. As much as I'd love to see Offerman in the MCU, perhaps the best best for this series is Paunovic.

Crystal

Crystallia Amaquelin (more commonly known as Crystal) is the second child born to the Inhuman couple Quelin and Ambur, and the younger sister of Medusa. Their father Quelin was the brother of Rynda, who was the queen of Inhumans, and therefore Crystal is considered to be a member of the royal family. Like other Inhumans, Crystal was exposed to the Terrigen Mists at a young age, which in her case gave her limited power over the four classical elements of fire, earth, air, and water (Comicvine).

Another rumored to already be close to casting by Hemlock Grove's Eliana Jones, I had thought of a few others that would fit the role well (from left to right): Alycia Debnam-Carey (The 100), Hayley McFarland (Sons of Anarchy) and Freya Mavor (The Lady in the Car with Glasses and a Gun).

Again, while they could all do well in the role, I think Alycia Debnam-Carey would be the best choice.

Triton

A member of the Inhuman Royal Family, Triton was exposed to the Terrigen Mist when he was a year old and emerged with a number of aquatic mutations (Comicvine).

While I think I may have missed the mark a bit on this casting, I still think they are great actors (from left to right): Adam Rodriguez (CSI: Miami), Kirk Acevedo (Dawn of the Planet of the Apes), and Ukweli Roach (Blindspot).

While the MCU needs to continue to grow diversely, covering up an actors race with green skin may not be the best way to go about it. Despite that, I sincerly hope that Roach could find his way to the MCU in some way; he does a great job in Blindspot and I think he could add alot of depth to any character in the MCU.

There you have it, my predictions for the rest of the Inhumans royal family!
