Had no idea this was being developed for TV. And it looks like it will have at least some time in theaters before going full time to the small screen. Pretty interesting.

Character descriptions for casting call:
quote:

Broderick – Male, 30-40, Caucasian. Can say volumes with just a look. Strong thoughtful and private, he’s unaccustomed to being questioned or feeling a need to answer to anyone, to an extent can verge on arrogance.

Marjorie – Female, 30-40, Caucasian. An elegant and intelligent advisor to her husband, she struggles to find her place outside of their relationship, as others tend to view her as just a pretty face. Strong and resourceful, she’s not afraid to break the rules when the situation demands it.

Marty – Male, 30-40, Caucasian. Broderick’s younger brother; he is intelligent, charming and articulate. He comes across as a man of the people but secretly covets power.

Kevin – Male, 30-40, Open. Slight of build, his mind is his greatest asset. Always prepared with a plan, his outlook on life is the glass is always half-empty and often cracked and dirty as well. Though his outlook can be grim he has a droll, dry sense of humor.

Grady – Male, 25-35, Open. Impetuous and brash, he has serious impulse control issues which frequently get him into trouble, whether it’s women, booze or fighting. He loves life and lives in the moment, for better or worse.

Christine – Female, 18-25 to play 18, Caucasian. Soulful but still learning the ways of the world, she has the arrogance of youth. Impetuous and independent, she is also deeply devoted to her family.

Timothy – Male, 25-35, Open, SFXMU required. Supremely athletic. The ultimate picture of cool. He’s calm under pressure and willing to do anything to get the job done

I'm sure Frank Welker has already been cast as Lockjaw.

Lockjaw is a bulldog the size of an elephant with a tuning fork on his head. He's CGI.

Yep.

Should be good. Glad they are going with 30-40 year olds. They will be established rather than figuring shite out. If fully expect the terrigen crystals to be understood already and for them to know they are actually Kree hybrids.

So they're the Inhumans with secret identities?

Casting calls are put out that way so that the actors who apply for the roles don't go in with a preconceived notion on who the character is supposed to be if the character is an established property.

Think about it: You're going to audition for the role of Broderick a lot differently than for the role of Black Bolt, a character who doesn't speak because his voice is so powerful it can kill everyone around him.

They haven't released the names of the characters. Those are just cover names. I'm sure they will be Blackagar Boltagon and company

There are only four of those characters with actual last names.

Blackagar Boltagon
Maximus Boltagon
Medusalith Amequalin Boltagon
Crystal Amequalin (Maximoff if they revive Quicksilver)

First two episodes will be in IMAX, with IMAX picking up some of the production cost.

Kind of surprised ABC wants to double up on garbage like this seeing as that Agents of SHIELD show or whatever it's called is scraping by by the skin if it's teeth each year to avoid cancellation.

Here's who I'd cast based upon the description:

Black Bolt - Anthony Lemke (Dark Matter)

Medusa - Anna Silk (Lost Girl)

Maximus - Tobias Menzies (Jack Randall from Outlander) or Sam Witwer (Being Human, the voice of Darth Maul)

Karnak - Jake McDorman (Limitless)

Gorgon - Aleks Paunovic (Various Shows) or a professional wrestler/athlete over 6'4

Crystal - Stella Maeve (The Magicians)

Triton - Harry Shum Jr. (Glee, Mortal Kombat Legacy)

It's gotten much better. This season has been especially great so far.

Good move, but I was pumped about the official films.

I do hope the production values are enough to support this.
