MARVEL PULLS DISNEY'S INHUMANS FROM 2019 SCHEDULE



THE INHUMANS

According to Deadline, Disney has pulled its movie based on the Inhumans comic off of its 2019 schedule. The Inhumans first appeared in a Fantastic Four comic in 1965. The Inhumans are a race of metahumans that have been both allies and enemies of The Fantastic Four. 

Currently, in Marvel's Agents of SHIELD they are using the term "Inhumans" to describe characthers that would normally be called "mutants."  The Inhumans on the TV show are not related in any way to how the characters are portrayed in the comics. They are more of an analogue for mutants but since Fox owns the rights to any and all X-Men related content Marvel has to use the term Inhumans. 

As a fan of Marvel, I wish they had introduced the Inhumans in Avengers: Age of Ultron. That could have been a great way to introduce the Inhumans to general audiences in a Super-team vs. Super-team battle. 

With the success Marvel is having, it doesn't need the Inhumans as a big-budget franchise but I'm sure they're thinking of how they can use them in future movies. All we can do is wait and see.
