Rumors of the "Inhumans" movie has been thrown around in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as early as 2012. Marvel's president, Kevin Feige has always had "confidence" in their lesser known titles such as the "Inhumans," "Doctor Strange" and "Guardians of The Galaxy."
But Marvel has already established "Guardians" and is introducing "Ant Man" this year; what about the Inhumans? How are they all tied to the Avengers' storyline?
Here's what you need to know about Marvel's latest supergroup.
The "Inhumans" are a race of humans experimented on by a militaristic alien race called The Kree. Ronan The Accuser, the enemy from "Guardians" is of the same species.
The "Inhumans" kept their distance from other civilizations, settling in an island called Attilan. Hidden from the outside world, their race thrived by developing their own techology. It wasn't until the 20th century that threats came to them and required them to team up with other super-beings, namely "X-Men," "Fantastic Four" and the "Avengers."
The "Inhumans" returned to their secret world when the world started to notice them. Their leader/King Blackbolt decided to move the Attilan into a moon.
Their peace was cut short when Ronan The Accuser kidnapped the Inhuman king and took his place as ruler. Blackbolt reclaimed his throne by defeating Ronan singlehandedly in a battle. As a result, Blackbolt detached Attilan from the moon and sent it into space. At this point, Blackbolt started building an army with the Kree.
A War between the Kree's and Skrull's ensued; in the wake of the battle the Inhumans and Kree's emerged the victors but lost emperor Vulcan of The Shi'ar along the way.
Blackbolt left five tribes of Inhumans across the galaxy by taking a wife from each one.
The Inhuman king's peace was cut short when the mad titan Thanos gave him a visit looking for his lost son, Thane, an Inhuman descendent.
Blackbolt and Thanos battled each other, destroying the Attilan in the process.
