IMAX Corp. (NYSE: IMAX), Marvel Television, a unit of Marvel Entertainment, and Disney|ABC Television Group today announced an innovative agreement to exclusively premiere the new ABC series “Marvel’s The Inhumans” in IMAX commercial theatres, marking the first time a live-action television series has debuted in this manner.
Under the agreement, a version of the first two episodes of Marvel Television’s new series “Marvel’s The Inhumans”--produced in conjunction with ABC Studios and filmed entirely with IMAX digital cameras--will run worldwide exclusively in IMAX for two weeks at the beginning of September 2017. ABC plans to then premiere the weekly series in fall, with additional exclusive content that can only be seen on the network.
The Inhumans, a race of superhumans with diverse and singularly unique powers, were first introduced in Marvel Comics by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby in 1965. Since that time, they have grown in prominence and become some of the most popular and iconic characters in the Marvel Universe. “Marvel’s The Inhumans” will explore the never-before-told epic adventure of Black Bolt and the royal family.
ABC, IMAX and Marvel Television also intend to work together to create a joint marketing and promotion plan for the series across their proprietary media platforms--which would be the first such cross-platform marketing launch of a television series. Today’s agreement also marks IMAX’s first time as a financing participant in a TV pilot and series.
“This unprecedented alliance represents a bold, innovative approach to launching great TV content for a worldwide audience,” said Ben Sherwood, co-chairman, Disney Media Networks and president, Disney|ABC Television Group. “It highlights Disney|ABC’s unrelenting commitment to finding new and creative ways to showcasing our very best programming and increasing global engagement and reach.”

This deal also provides audiences with high-quality, compelling entertainment options during what have traditionally been lulls in the summer blockbuster season. These IMAX audiences also tend to have high engagement and positive response to comic book fare.

Basically a massive theater screen with a super HD camera used
but is it MCU
Why isn't this the norm?
Spidey movie, leads directly into Spidey tv show, which leads directly into the next Spidey/Avengers/Team-up movie
Goddamn this isnt the darkest timeline, but it sure is the dumbest.

If this works then presumably Marvel Television would try doing it with other properties too. I'd like to see a Squadron Supreme series done this way.
>>87699937
Honestly, I wouldn't mind all of their series done this way. They don't even need to be Thor or Doctor Strange shows, just shows about other characters who were in the movie, like a JiM show or She-Hulk who would have a lot of cameos from Netflix and film.
SHIELD tried to do this but it started doing its own thing. If Agent Carter got squashed between a Cap film and a one shot or two it would have been perfect.

Medusa is a whore and BB is boring
Will the films reference the show, or will it continue to be a "one way street"?
>>87701915
I can see it become two way if this becomes a GoT-level hit
So, is this another non-canon show?
So they're trying to get people to pay about 15 bucks to see the first two episodes of a network television series early in a cinema? I guess Marvel is testing how far they can push people. If they turn out for this cashgrab bullshit I imagine Marvel will execute order 66 and have marvelstans overthrow the government.

Of course, Inhuman might be TOO popular, and then it will form the basis of a new world religion and the TV shows will refuse to acknowledge the movies and Jesus Christ how delusional can you people get?
>>87696531
Too bad its not canon
