Marvel Reportedly Scraps INHUMANS Due To Divide Between Movie And TV Divisions
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. has really been pushing the concept of the Inhumans over the past couple of years, but according to a new report, the civil war between Kevin Feige and Ike Perlmutter has led to it being scrapped. So, no Black Bolt on the big screen? Hit the jump for details...
Kevin Feige has wanted to make Inhumans for some time now, but could that have changed following the divide between him and Marvel Entertainment CEO Ike Perlmutter? If a new report from Bleeding Cool is to be believed, then yes! They claim to have heard rumblings that Inhumans has been scrapped, and while it still publicly has a release date, it's already been dropped from Marvel Studios' slate. A reason for this happening isn't given, but it sounds like it could have something to do with Disney now overseeing the Marvel movies (at Feige's request) and Perlmutter remaining in charge of TV. Even so, scrapping Inhumans seems like a really extreme move!
It's previously been claimed that the Marvel Studios President hasn't been a fan of the TV shows encroaching on the movie's turf, and it could be that Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. pushing ahead with the concept of the Inhumans has soured him somewhat towards the characters. After all, Earth being full of new Inhumans would have to be addressed in their movie at some point! This doesn't make a whole lot of sense right now - especially as Marvel TV has apparently been pushing for it to get made - but this was the site who first reported on those behind the scenes issues with Fantastic Four, so don't dismiss this just yet.
