Had things gone to the initial blueprint, we wouldn't be talking about an upcoming Inhumans TV show, but rather the Inhumans movie. Originally slated for 2018, it was pushed back to 2019 and then quietly scrapped altogether, and with the arrival of this series we can assume it'll never happen.

Cinema's loss, however, could be TV's gain.

While Inhumans have been introduced on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., they're a watered-down version. The ones on this TV show will be the real deal.

It's expected to focus on the Inhuman Royal Family, which features hugely-powerful characters like Black Bolt and Medusa. Fantastic powers plus all sorts of political scheming and backstabbing should be ripe for a TV series. Hype will be ramped up once they confirm some casting, but even now the only apparent downside is that it's on ABC, which might not have the budget necessary to make it reach its true potential.
