Marvel's INHUMANS Movie Still Coming in 2019; Vin Diesel Continues to Tease His Involvement
Last week a rumor hit the internet that Marvel's The Inhumans movie might end up being canceled due to a clash between the film and TV sides of Marvel Studios. It looks like that actually isn't the case, though. The rumor was debunked byDrew McWeeny at HitFix, who says, "I went directly to an unimpeachable source, who told me that the film division is still planning to make the film, and there are certain elements of the Inhumans universe that have been declared off-limits to the SHIELD people as a result."
On top of that, Vin Diesel continues to tease the possibility that he will be in The Inhumans. He's previously hinted at his involvement with the project, which you can read about here and here. It's pretty obvious that if the guy is a part of the film, he will end up playing Black Bolt, who is the leader of The Inhumans. In a recent interview with io9, the actor said:
"I can totally be something [else] with Marvel. I think playing that role only makes Marvel that much more excited and me having my experience with Marvel, seeing how great they were, makes me more excited.
"We’ve heard a lot of talk about Marvel wanting to have me play a character that doesn’t have my voice. So my voice is used for Groot and my presence is used for the other character."
Diesel is perfect for the role of Black Bolt, and he might as well just come out and officially announce it already. The Inhumans is set to be released on July 12th, 2019. With the direction that Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. is headed, it's going to be really interesting to see how this movie turns out.
