Marvel Studios /TV has announced that Inhumans will be a new show appearing on ABC and will premiere next fall. The series first 2 episodes will be shot in Imax Cameras and will debut in movie theaters across the country.
The series will not focus on the Inhuman characters in Agents of SHIELD (Though it would not surprise me if they appeared). Instead the show will focus on the classic Inhuman characters of the Inhuman Royal Family. The show will be set in the modern day and will be set both on Earth and the Moon. The addition of the Moon as a set means that Attilan and the Blue Side of the Moon will very likely be a setting for the show.
The show / film showing with Imax will be the first time that a show and Imax have joined in such away. The Marvel press release as posted on Marvel.com states:
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.
Major news in the Marvel press release was on the focus of the series:
Marvel’s "The Inhumans" will explore the never-before-told epic adventure of Black Bolt and the royal family.This should mean that all of the Inhuman characters will be on the table for Agents of SHIELD and this new Inhumans show.
I think it is safe to say that Inhuman's film has officially been canceled and this show is a replacement to tell some of the same story that was planned for the film. There has been speculation building for years on what Marvel will end up doing with the Inhumans and now we finally know.
What do you think? Are you excited? Disappointed? Please let me know.
Here is the information on the prior Inhuman Movie.

Scheduled Release date: Nov 2nd, 2018
Description:
Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige was quoted saying this about the movie:
“November 3, 2018 will introduce dozens of characters into the Marvel Cinematic Universe," ... "We really do believe the Inhumans can be a franchise or a series of franchise unto themselves. They have dozens of powers and an amazing social structure. With our 20th movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, we wanted to continue to refine what that universe is about."

Update Oct 9, 2015:
No More Inhumans Movie?
There is a rumor circulating NYCC and has been reported by Bleedingcool news that the Inhumans film may no longer be on Marvel's slate.
Some speculate that has to do with a disagreement between Marvel's film and TV divisions. Others conclude that this means that Marvel may be working on a deal with Fox to bring over the X-Men franchise.
For the moment this is all very much rumor and speculation. Bleedingcool does insist though that it has reliable sources to this rumor.
It would be unclear if true what this would mean for the plot of Agents of SHIELD. Agents of SHIELD has built up the ideas of Inhumans for the past 3 years. Would this give the show free reign introduce the Royal Family or does it put their future seasons in a quagmire?
Update: Oct 12, 2015
Devin Faraci addressed the rumor circulating from the BleedingCoolNews article. According to him there is no delay or cancelation of the Inhuman film.
Just talked to one of my Marvel sources. Said if INHUMANS was canceled no one would be more surprised than Marvel Studios.— Devin Faraci (@devincf) October 10, 2015 He also questioned Bleedingcool's claims on the Iron Fist TV show:This IRON FIST stuff is almost exactly the opposite of what I'm hearing. https://t.co/KfzuIbf5rw— Devin Faraci (@devincf) October 11, 2015Want to learn more about the Inhumans?
