About Eternals
Eternals is the 26th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), and while it is largely a stand-alone ensemble film, there are connections to the larger MCU. The film is part of Marvel’s transition into phase four of the ever-expanding franchise. As part of the latest phase, Eternals intentionally emphasized a broad diversity of casting, including greater inclusion and the swapping of genders, sexualities, and ethnicities of certain characters from the comic books. The story spans 7000 years and looks at the role of humanity and Earth in the cosmos. The film is directed by Chloé Zhao (Nomadland) and has an extensive cast including Richard Madden, Gemma Chan, Kit Harrington, Salma Hayek, Kumail Nanjiani, Don Lee, Brian Tyree Henry, Lauren Ridloff, and Angelina Jolie. It had a strong fan and critical reception, opening with the second-largest box office since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic. In addition to the film, Disney+ will release the latest episode of the behind-the-scenes show Marvel Studios: Assembled on November 12, Assembled: The Making of Eternals.
