The Shadow King may have been the overarching Big Bad of Legion's wonderfully bizarre first season, but we never actually cast eyes upon his true face - something that's going to change in Season 2.

Wonder Woman's Said Taghmaoui was originally cast in the role of Amahl Farouk, but it's since gone to Homeland's Navid Negahban instead. A clip from the second episode of Legion's second season was shown at a TCA tour event, and reportedly shows David Haller awaken in a wheat field and stumble upon a fortune teller booth, where he meets Farouk.

Given the importance of the character, and the trippiness of the series, it's going to be a major moment when the hero and villain properly collide for the first time.
