Not in Theaters Today: How ‘Inhumans’ Became the Phase 3 Marvel Movie That Never Was

Four years ago, Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige announced a nine-movie slate in front of a packed El Capitan Theatre. It was Phase Three of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which would span from Captain America: [Serpent Society] Civil War in May 2016 through Avengers: Infinity War Part II in May 2019. The penultimate film in that slate was Inhumans, originally set for release today, November 2, 2018, and the only movie in that Phase Three slate that did not and will not (for now) make it onto the silver screen.
