Inhumans movie possibly canceled by Marvel Studios

[TigerClaw]

According to a post from bleedingcool.com, Marvel Studios has canceled the Inhumans movie, there has been some bad blood going on between Kevin Feige and Marvel CEO Isaac Perlmutter.

[TurtleTitan97]

Really hoping this isn't the case. I really want to see Black Bolt in action.

[turtlefanforever]

Maybe everyone hated that S.H.E.I.L.D episode lol

[chrisdude]

Maybe if they don't make the movie, they could still use the characters in the show?

[HallamSpaceCadet]

I would not be that gutted if this is the case. The more integrated the movies are with Agents of Shield the weaker the movies will be. Agents of Shield is just straight up awful.

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

I wouldn't care. If anything, it would save me from having to watch ~6 seasons of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. I mean, I know it's gotten way better from the first half of Season 1, but still... I can only regularly watch so many shows. :tlol:

Besides... Guardians of the Galaxy is as far as I go in strangeness. Rocket Raccoon and Groot are awesome.

But the teleporting bulldog and all the other weirdos don't appeal to me at all. Only Black Bolt and Medusa seem marketable to me.

[CyberCubed]

Aren't the Inhumans just ripoffs of the X-men? Teens with superpowers who don't know how to control them and are shunned by humans?

What's the difference?

[TigerClaw]

There has always been bad blood between Marvel Studios with the TV division, Marvel Studios was trying to do there own thing, but the TV execs insisted on making shows set in the MCU.

Its the reason why Joss Whedon wanted Agent Coulsen to stay dead in the movies, but the TV execs wanted him on the TV shows.

[NinjaPug]

That report is complete BS. For whatever reason Bleeding Cool has been anti-Kevin Feige and Marvel Studios for a while. Seems like they're buddy buddy with someone at Marvel TV.

I bet Adam McKay writes and directs the Inhumans movie. Marvel has wanted him to direct a movie for a while.

Spoken like someone who obviously doesn't know jack about the Inhumans. You are sooo way off base. How about reading an actual comic before making these ridiculous assumptions?:roll:

[sdp]

My only experience with the Inhumans has been through the Fantastic Four and I found them to be incredibly dull characters. Now I think they're supposed to be X-Men type characters, I only know this because it's what website headlines and forum goers post about and compare them to.

[chrisdude]

Inhumans have been around just as long as X-Men, and they're both Marvel. So it's hard to call it a ripoff.

Maybe so, but Inhumans and Mutants are still two totally different things with two totally different origins. They weren't created to be second rate X-Men in the first place.

For starters, Mutants in the Marvel universe are basically humans who are born with the X-Gene in them, whose powers manifest as teenagers.

Inhumans, on the other hand, are a genetically altered race created by the Kree millions of years ago when they visted Earth during the prehistoric age and experimented on cavemen via the Terrigen Mist. Chronologically speaking, they existed before Mutants even appeared .

And the core Inhumans are not "Teens with superpowers who don't know how to control them" as CyberCubed wrongly put them:

First, you have Black Bolt (King of the Inhuman race), Medusa (Black Bolt's wife), Crystal (Medusa's sister and former girlfriend of the Human Torch and wife of Quicksilver), Lock Jaw, Triton, Karnak, Gorgon, and so on.

[Ninjinister]

Lockjaw's the only one that doesn't suck!

[ZariusTwo]

In the comics now, Black Bolt and Medusa are on the rocks and Medusa is having an affair with Johnny

Huh, that I did not know. Truth be told I've rarely kept up with events occurring in Marvel comics these days and instead been reading and making my way through the early issues from the Silver Age.

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

So apparently the news of the Inhumans movie's cancellation is in dispute...

http://screenrant.com/marvel-inhumans-cancellation-rumors/

Funny thing is, I can totally see it going either way given Marvel's far-reaching plans as well as the cold war between the TV series and the movies. 2019 is a long way away...

Man, are YOU ever barking up the wrong tree! Inhumans are NOT mutants, nor are very many of them "teenagers"- in fact, all of the key characters are very much adults and in control of their powers. Except Blackbolt, whose power is his voice. Even a whisper can cause serious damage!

Well, as Leo said, it's Cubed, so....

That was my only real experience with them, too- and a few specific issues of Spider-Man, as well. Medusa's introduction was in an early Spidey issue, and she just seemed very arrogant to me. Actually, they all do.

^ All of THIS. At least up until the recent ret-con involving unleashing the Mist on Earth and suddenly transforming a bunch of random people with "Inhuman blood" (and given their history with humans, their insistence of being superior to them, AND their strict laws against interbreeding with them, that's basically a BS ret-con) including the "new" Ms. Marvel. Which is just one of a laundry list of reasons I despise that character.

[TurtleTitan97]

Actually Medusa was introduced Fantastic Four#36, which also introduced the Frightful Four. But yeah, I think know the issue you're talking about, that was an odd one. If I recall correctly some business guy wanted Medusa to represent his hair spray company and she got into a misunderstanding with Spider-Man, right? I think that was my first introduction to the character.

EDIT: Now I remember, it was Amazing Spider-Man#62

I believed them. :tlol: I remember reading that, and it makes sense given the friction between Perlmutter and Feige.

[Spike Spiegel]

I'm kind of glad this happened.

The idea of an Inhumans movie without the FF always seemed half-baked anyway.

[TheSkeletonMan939]

I shed no tear over this news, except for the possibility that it may have put off any AoS/MCU meetup that could have happened.

Yup, that was the ASM issue, alright. I believe that issue is listed as her first appearance in my Marvel Encyclopedia, which is weird, if she appeared in FF first. If memory serves, I think it was actually Blackbolt and perhaps some of the other Inhumans who first appeared in the FF issue- my Marvel Universe Handbook also lists their first appearance as FF #45-#47, not #36.

[TonySiegel]

i mean whatever...

but I'm more into the belief that the TV universe will never "fully" integrate into the movie universe... its starting to look like a lonnnggggg shot for it to ever happen...

heres hoping infinity war doesn't get watered down...

getting that itch of boredom with comic movies... whats next after infinity war?

will the comic bubble burst?

reboot the turtles!

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

I firmly believe that Marvel has reacquired the Fantastic Four rights, in at least some manner, and that the MCU's next big bad is Galactus.

Why go with the Inhumans when you can go with Doctor Doom, Skrulls, Kree, Galactus, Silver Surfer, Kang, and more?

I doubt it, cause if Fox were to make a deal with Marvel Studios to bring the X-Men to the MCU, Marvel Studios would want creative control and pretty much recast all the characters, instead of using the current cast.

Why do you think they recast Spider-Man? cause they wanted to go with a younger Spider-Man.

Laughably implausible and incorrect.

[Coola Yagami]

I honestly never saw this movie making it, especially since it's pushed back so far off. SHIELD already did the Inhumans storyline, if they were to make one, it would make more sense to release it late last year as that story wrapped up.

Plus, with all the build up SHIELD did to the Inhumans, I'm sorry, but other than Black Bolt and Medusa, I want to see Skye/Daisy there up front and center or else the tv series just wasted a season and made Skye into an Inhuman for nothing.

I almost feel as if SHIELD is watching WWE RAW and Smackdown and the Marvel Movies are the big Pay Per Views. If Skye isn't in the Inhumans storyline, then we're wasting out time with her character.

True, if they team up with Marvel Studios on a crossover, Marvel would want more creative freedom on it then Fox.

That's what happened with the Sony/Marvel Studios deal, Marvel would allow Spider-Man in the MCU, as long as they have creative control over it.

and that won't happen with Fox.

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

https://www.comicbookmovie.com/inhumans/kevin-feige-weighs-in-on-the-possibility-of-inhumans-being-part-of-a146524

"I think Inhumans will happen for sure," he reveals. "I don’t know when. I think it’s happening on television. And I think as we get into Phase 4 as I’ve always said, it could happen as a movie. I think it would be super cool." Some may take that as confirmation that Inhumans will indeed happen, but Feige really doesn't seem sure, and it's rare that we see that sort of uncertainty from his. He doesn't even seem sure what's going on with Inhuman characters on the small screen, another worrying sign.

:tlol: Yeah, The Inhumans are never making it into the MCU proper. Not if Feige says "will happen for sure", "happening on television", and "could happen as a movie." Put those together and it spells out:

Inhumans is on Agents of SHIELD and that's all you're ever getting.

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

Well... THIS is certainly unexpected. :teek:

https://www.comicbookmovie.com/other/marvels-the-inhumans-coming-to-abc-next-fall-first-two-episodes-will-a146790

No Inhumans movie, but instead, an Inhumans TV series. And not more of the same from Agents of SHIELD, but the Royal family proper, apparently.

Huh.

No interest, but huh.

Should be interesting to see who all they cast for this. I hope Lockjaw is in it!!!

What does this mean for Agents of SHIELD?

[ZariusTwo]

What does this mean for Agents of SHIELD?

Give it it's correct name: "Back-Door Pilots Of SHIELD"

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

Apparently there will be only eight episodes.

This actually GREATLY interests me. It means that whoever's running this has a finite, concise story to tell. It's not going to be full of a bunch of filler and crap. AND I don't have to bother with "Agents of SHIELD." Four seasons strong and I still have about as much excitement for that show as I do for a colonoscopy.

So yeah... this will be the first ABC Marvel show I'm interested in.

Let's just hope Marvel reunite Black Bolt and Medusa in light of this. I hate that she's currently treating Human Torch as a boy toy rebound

[DestronMirage22]

Can't wait to see how they do Medusa in this.

[ToTheNines]

Okay, if it's only 8 episodes, it'll probably just air during AOS's winter break next year like Agent Carter used to.

I was sure it was on the chopping block with the 10 o'clock slot, but hopefully not!

[Andrew NDB]

AND I don't have to bother with "Agents of SHIELD."

I see that they said it's not a "spinoff of SHIELD," but I really don't see how they can avoid it. There were no Inhumans active on Earth until the direct events that happened on-screen in Agents of SHIELD that triggered their chrysalis or whatever.

I mean, I guess they could just touch on it in dialogue or pretend everyone knows, but that's sort of a big deal.

That's kind of my reaction. No interest at all. Though I've said that before about MCU projects before I've checked them out.

And there's no way they don't crossover with Agents of SHIELD. Maybe not at first, but they'd be fools not to. But I guess this means no Vin Diesel as Thunderbolt dude anymore, huh?

I don't know much about the Inhumans either, but I do know that in their earliest appearances they would often fight alongside or against the FF. They didn't really waste time around normal people.

Well I was right. Lockjaw was in the middle of teleporting (with Blackbolt). Footage shown in the link below. I rather like his finished look...even if he's minus his entenae.

[sdp]

That trailer seems like a movie, could it be that they used the movie script as a tv pilot? The show looks incredibly cheesy and bad but I give them props for going all in on the source material it seems.

I don't even know who the inhumans are, I mean I know who they are because they've always crossed over different Marvel hero stories, especially the Fantastic Four but to me they seem like cheesy characters and have never liked them much. I don't see how this was ever considered by Marvel a replacement for X-Men.

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

When Marvel introduced the casual audience to Guardians of the Galaxy, they did it with some amazing and intriguing trailers.

Same (to a lesser extent) for Ant-Man. Same for Jessica Jones or Luke Cage or Iron Fist.

THIS? This is neither amazing or intriguing. It just looks low-budget and forgettable.

[NinjaPug]

Hey, it's Lockjaw. That's the only positive thing I can say about the Inhumans trailer.

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

Lockjaw does look good. Big ol' bulldog the size of a frickin' elephant. I just wanna cuddle his cute fuzzy head. :tlol:

[ToTheNines]

I thought Karnak was cool.

[TigerClaw]

Hey, it's Lockjaw. That's the only positive thing I can say about the Inhumans trailer.
When the only redeeming quality is Lockjaw, this series has problems. :lol:

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

I'm very surprised the trailer didn't show off one "OMG" moment with Medusa to counter all of the hate people directed towards that awful orange wig.

But nope.

Lockjaw!

That explains a lot, most of the budget on this show was on Lockjaw. :lol:

[Raph's Girl]

Lockjaw is just so darned cute!!! :D

That was....not good.
At all.

For the 3 seconds of screen/time he got, Lockjaw was definitely the stand-out.
He was the only one (besides Medusa, a little) that really looks like the character. Without their flashy costumes these Inhumans look really lame. And you can't tell who's who.

Not many stories they could tell with these guys too. So it'll bomb. That's obvious.

[NinjaPug]

The new trailer they released at SDCC last night looks really bad. Apparently the footage they screened for people attending the panel was even worse.

[TigerClaw]

Here's the Comic Con Trailer

A much better trailer.

But it still looks bad. Medusa's hair... I thought they had a big CGI budget for this? And the city still looks like a concrete bunker.

Zero interest.

It looks like Marvel wanted to make Inhumans as cheap and quick as possible.
https://www.comicbookmovie.com/inhumans/inhumans-director-reveals-that-marvel-wanted-the-show-to-be-made-quickly-and-cheaply-a153317

In a piece titled "What did Marvel look for in Inhumans? Fast and cheap" over at CNet, the director says he was chosen because Marvel, well, wanted someone who was fast and could make a show like this for very little money. "I think they liked me for the job because I was able with my action movies to shoot in a very short time, or with very low budgets, action that looks like a big-budget movie."

"The schedule was super-tight. I had TV schedule time to shoot it with Imax cameras, 20 days to shoot two episodes. It’s nerve-wracking but I come from a low-budget film world, so 20 days for me is luxury," Reiné continued and appeared to then shift the blame to interfering Marvel TV executives.

"There was always a Marvel executive around me, just to make sure that whatever I did, or whatever we did together, would tie in with other characters in other universes, in other comics, in other series or movies," the director explains. "They’re very protective. These people are very passionate about their product and about characters and about doing the best version of everything."

This explains why the quality of the show looks so cheap and poorly made.

It does. It really does.

The bigger question is, WHY did they want it done "cheaply and quickly" and WHO thought that would work out for them?

[Andrew NDB]

The only certainty is that a whole bunch of people are going to get fired over this show.

mostly the more hardcore fans that's been waiting for an MCU Inhumans, they are gonna be so disappointed when they ended up with.

To think that the Inhumans were originally sold as their "x-men" and had their movie lined up in phase 3 and would've been in Infinity War.

Maybe this show is the best that could've happened to the MCU, leave the Inhumans in their place.

[NinjaPug]

I bet dropping Inhumans from the movie slate was one of Feige's first moves after Ike was removed as his boss.

It's been practically confirmed, reading through the lines of the various interviews...

Well, "Inhumans the MCU Movie" was still going to take place after Avengers 3/4, according to the old schedules. But yeah, they would not fit in at all. Avengers + Guardians of the Galaxy is crammed full enough!

[Andrew NDB]

To think that the Inhumans were originally sold as their "x-men" and had their movie lined up in phase 3 and would've been in Infinity War.

Yeah, it seemed like a sound plan. I mean... I was open to Marvel convincing me the Inhumans were worth a sh*t. A rushjob, cheap TV show simply isn't going to do that. The best they can hope for is sub-Agents of SHIELD season 1 premiere numbers, then quickly diminishing returns.

And look at the trailers. This is what they're leading with. Imagine if ratings slump and they get, like, a season 2 with an even lower budget. Yikes. "Lockjaw went away to college!" or something.

Lockjaw wouldn't stop peeing on Medusa's rosebushes, so Black Bolt had him put down...

Or maybe something not so dark. Maybe he just went to Obedience/Teleporter Repair School.

That does look way better. As in, hair that might actually be real hair and not a $5 Goodwill Halloween wig.

Looks like IMAX has decided to shorten the theatrical run of the 1st two episodes, to just 1 week instead of 2 weeks.

Ehh.... It still looks really bad to me.

Everytime I see these trailers I can't help but think it was a big mistake trying to modernize the Inhumans like this. It just doesn't look right at all. :(

Apparently 105% of the Inhumans budget was for camera, and the producers tossed their couch cushions looking for spare quarters to buy the cheapest CGI they could find?

:tlol: I read that earlier. Brutal. Not telling me anything I couldn't figure out for myself after the trailer, though.

[Katie]

I saw one review say that they didn't even bother to remove an episode break halfway in. "Previously on Inhumans...."

[Galactus]

I was willing this to be amazing since anything less than that would jumped on by paranoid fans who believe Marvel is trying to replace the X-Men with the Inhumans. Sadly this looks not even decent.

Marvel should have just stuck to their guns and done an Inhumans movie. It seems that Infinity War will take more story cues from Hickman's Infinity than the original Infinity Gauntlet and I could see the scene of Black Bolt evacuating and destroying Attilan to prevent it falling to Thanos would have been a shoo in and cool to see in live action but it seems very unlikely now.

[Faster and Cheaper]

Inhumans is now officially the Fetch of the MCU. It's just never gonna happen.

[ToTheNines]

Ok, just got back from seeing this with my dad. 5 total people at our screening lol.

First of all, it's not as terrible as everyone is saying and the report of them not bothering to remove a "previously on Inhumans" recap between the two parts was a lie. It plays as a short movie. Also a post credit scene and then a trailer for the rest of the season.

So the acting was mostly really good and the effects were what you'd expect from an ABC show. That giant IMAX screen doesn't do Lockjaw any favors, he'll surely look better on the small screen.

The main cast is interesting and likable, but I don't get how we're supposed to root for these guys as our protagonists. They're living high on the hog while upholding a generations old caste system. I mean, there's sympathetic villains... and then there's Maximus. He's just plain right. Maybe they'll turn everything on its head and make sense of this, but right now that's the show's main problem.

So if you like Agents of Shield at all, you're gonna enjoy this at least a little bit. I can not recommend spending $20 on an IMAX ticket for it though.

[ZariusTwo]

Advertising by ABC for the remaining episodes are billing the series as "complete"

http://renewcanceltv.com/inhumans-cancelled-no-season-2-already-abc-promotes-complete-series/

[Andrew NDB]

So has anyone suffered through all of this show? I'll probably end up watching it in the days ahead.

[Andrew NDB]

https://www.newsarama.com/39902-inhumans-cancelled.html

Officially cancelled, apparently.

Sh**. What do they do with them now? They can't reel back and do a movie and pretend they didn't do an awful TV show now. Kind of seems like this is the end of the Inhumans forever beyond whatever else SHIELD wants to do with them in whatever time it has left.

[ZariusTwo]

There's even a comic book event coming out this summer called "Death of the Inhumans"

[Andrew NDB]

Might as well call it "Disney's 'Boy We're glad we're about to get the X-Men back!"

[sdp]

Would things have gone different if Disney hadn't made the Spider-Man deal? I'm guessing even before the possibility of buying Fox they already had some type of deal in place as many were already speculating a long time before the Fox deal leaked out.

They had clearly positioned Inhumans as the next X-Men and were going to get a movie. It wasn't until the things I mentioned above that the movie got delayed and then downgraded to a tv show. Could Marvel have actually made it work?

I never liked the Inhumans but the Marvel brand has been so strong and made Black Panther, Dr. Strange, Guardians among others into household names so It would've been interesting to see.

[Sumac]

At the upside we might finally get more good X-Men movies than two.
