Synopsis for Marvel's THE INHUMANS, Which Promises to Be Unlike Anything You've Seen on TV Before

A new synopsis for Marvel's upcoming series The Inhumans has been released that sheds some light on the story that the series will tell. It reveals that Black Bolt, Medusa, and the rest of the Royal family are hiding out on earth after a military coup back on Attilan, the ancestral home of the Inhumans. The synopsis reads: 

After the Royal Family of Inhumans is splintered by a military coup, they barely escape to Hawaii where their surprising interactions with the lush world and humanity around them may prove to not only save them, but Earth itself.

This means that the series will begin with the character Maximus succeed in overthrowing his brother's rule, and the bulk of the series will take place on Earth dealing with Black Bolt's attempts to take back his throne. 

With part of this series being shot in IMAX, we already know this isn't going to be your average TV series, but according to Mark Endemano, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Disney Media Distribution, it's not going to be like anything we've seen before. He says:

"I promise you, this is unlike anything you’ve ever seen before on television. It brings a richness and depth of storytelling."

He didn't say how the series would be any different from what Marvel has done before but it's exciting to hear that it's going to be something epic. I was kind of apprehensive at first because I was hoping that the Inhumans would be a movie, but maybe TV will be a better place for it. We'll just have to wait and see!

Inhumans, which is filmed using IMAX cameras, will debut in IMAX theaters in the United States on September 1. The show will receive its broadcast debut on ABC on September 26. The series is produced by ABC Studios, Marvel Television and IMAX, and stars Anson Mount, Serinda Swan, Iwan Rheon, Ken Leung, Eme Ikwuakor, Isabelle Cornish, Mike Moh, Sonya Balmores and Ellen Woglom.

The first two episode of Marvel’s The Inhumans (directed by Roel Reine) will premiere in over 1,000 IMAX theatres across the globe — for a two-week run — starting on September 1, 2017. ABC will then premiere the weekly television series on Tuesday, September 26. Marvel's Iron Fist showrunner Scott Buck is serving as its showrunner.
