According to a new report on Production Weekly, Marvel will begin production on its long-anticipated Inhumans project this March. Although it will not be a film, as previously thought, the project will be an ABC television series. The series will span eight episodes, which ABC plans to broadcast on Tuesdays beginning on September 26th. The first two episodes will première in IMAX theaters nationwide on September 1st.
The television series will introduce viewers to the Inhuman Royal Family. This is something that Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. has toyed with for the last few seasons. According to a report from MCU Exchange, the show will feature Blackbolt, Medusa, Maximus, Karnak, Gorgon, Crystal, and Triton, and take place on the Earth and the Moon. The Inhumans show will be something different from anything that we have seen before in the MCU.
ABC President Channing Dungey talked about Inhumans at the TCA’s this week:
“What we’re doing with IMAX is very different, and I think it’s going to feel and look very different from what they’re doing on Netflix. Hopefully there’s a world for me where those shows exist side-by-side on our air and are two different pieces of music that exist together in the same landscape.”
There is also a secret Marvel show that has been in the works for sometime, awaiting a redrafted script. Dungey also gave a slight update on this script being written by writer John Ridley (12 Years a Slave):
“John is working on a rewrite of that script for Marvel at the moment. We have not seen a new version of it. He’s been on production of his show, over in London, and on season 3 of American Crime, so those are the things that have been top of mind for him of late. But I have heard from Marvel that he is working on a revision to that script.”
Inhumans hits television screens this Fall.
