What if the Inhumans already have one of the last unclaimed Infinity gems? And that's what loops them into the fight somehow?

CJStriker, great idea for a thread, my friend! I've enjoyed reading what everyone thinks so far!
redrunner97, great list! Some of these are simply perfect! I have pondered greatly about who would be perfect as Crystal, and Natalie Dormer is one that never came to mind, but I think it's a great choice! Joe Manganiello is fantastic choice for Gorgon. I also love that you included Auran! Great list all the way around though.
Black Bolt - Manu Bennett
He is big and imposing, as Black Bolt should be, and I think he's has a range of facial expression well-suited to a speechless character.
Medusa - Elizabeth Mitchell
I know the hair color isn't right, but I think she definitely has the right presence and authoritative look about her, and Medusa's hair is going to be computer generated, anyway.
Crystal - Natalie Dormer
redrunner97, you hit the nail on the head. One part princess, one part badass makes Natalie Dormer perfect for the part.
Karnak - Jason Statham
He's got the right frame, the right look, and most importantly the martial arts prowess to do justice to Karnak.
Gorgon - Joe Manganiello
Can't think of a better choice than this pick that others have stated.
Triton - Eli Goree
He has the right build and the mild-mannered demeanor that makes him a good fit for this role.
Auran - Michelle Rodriguez
She may be 5'5", but she can still kick your butt.
Reader - Marc Bendavid
He has "Reader" written all over him. I think he would portray the character in a way that is suited to his roguishness.
I don't think any of the NuHumans should be introduced in the first film. There are going to be enough characters with just the royal family, but it also can't be limited to just them, which is why I included Auran and Reader, since they're full-blooded Inhumans.

I feel like if they introduce any of the Inhuman Royal Family into the MCU early, Black Panther would be the place to do it. That movie is about Wakanda introducing itself to the world (at least, that's the last interview I read with Feige). Would make sense for the Inhumans to maybe show up there. That said, I think it should definitely be Crystal (my biased is showing) or maybe Medusa.
As for who, I can't really think of anyone to compete with idisestablish or Redrunner's lists. They seem pretty solid to me. If they introduce Attilan Inhumans other than the Royal family I am seconding that I would love to see Auran.
Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.

Thats for the Praise and liking of the Thread, Means allot Idisestablish my friend!
Thanks to all for the Great posts, discussions and ideas that have been posted, been enjoying allot of them!
Honestly this is one area that I am not good in choosing, who should play who in a Movie. Never been good at picking out Actors and Actresses best for a Role, especially a Superhero Role. So seeing such unique ideas is a Great thing to see to gain an idea of who be best to act in this Upcoming Unique Movie of The Inhumans!

Also, one thing this movie needs to get right is Black Bolt's destructive scream. The first time it was unleashed is one of my favorite moments in Comics. I will forgive almost any flaw the movie has in they get the scream right.
I agree! Great thread CJ, I'm ashamed of not saying so sooner!
Thanks! I would be down with several of your choices as well, particularly these (two of which -Crystal and Gorgon- we precisely agree on).
I don't either. I definitely see Auran making the cut, even if her role is limited to just part of Medusa's entourage, and Reader is quickly becoming a fan-favorite and I think he'll also make it into the film. I could also see them changing his origin in the MCU to being an Attilan native, and maybe he'll be the "commonfolk" perspective to show Inhuman society from the perspective of a non-Royal who ends up fighting alongside them.
If we get a scene where all these different powered-Inhumans rise up and fight off Thanos' army with their King and Queen during Infinity War, I think I'll die from the chills alone! Lol. I still don't think it's hit me that THE FREAKIN' INHUMANS!!!! will soon very likely be kicking ass right beside Rocket Raccoon and Captain America!! The feels are strong with this one!
I must admit that I'm not a fan of how Black Bolt's scream has been portrayed in nearly every animated series the Inhumans have shown up in. It always sounds like some kind of a bird screeching, in my mind it's not a screech and much more of a massive sonic boom. I really hope they handle it adequately.

I'm hoping it's like a Thor movie, with an earth storyline because then they could introduce Kamala Kahn, no idea who they could get to play her though. Maybe an unknown?

As for Auran and Reader, yes I agree they are my personal favorite non-royal, non-NuHuman of the Inhumans now and it seems like they may be the two most popular in the respect all the way around. So I'm REALLY hoping both of them are included!
As for Black Bolt's scream, in my mind a sound that "loud" and powerful couldn't even be processed by humans as a sound. I agree with you, it should be like a pop and utter silence, eradicating all other sound. Trying to give it sound, no matter how intense, will diminish the scale of how extreme it actually is. I imagine in my mind a sonic boom, like you mentioned drowning out all sound followed by an extreme zoom-out showing the devastation and maybe show people like 100 miles away hearing a really loud noise. Or something like that.

Ooh Reader! Yes. I really hope he makes the cut. Easily my favorite Inhuman. If I could have anyone, I think I'd love to see John Boyega in the role.
Also just thought of this: Christoph Waltz as Maximus. Eh? Eh? Could be phenomenal.
I would go for silence, actually. Drop all music and ambient noise, except for a low Rumble at the bottom of the sound field, building into an echo of the actual word he happens to be saying. Then break out the explosives. No C4 or Gasoline, real demolition cord. Everything should implode in front of him.
The first time it happens have him stand like a full 100+ yards away from his target, or use slow motion. Basically if you've seen the pilot episode if the Flash when he gets struck by lightning, and all the liquids in the glass stand up? Sort of like that.
