The Eternals is worlds away from anything Marvel has ever done before. With the promise of demigods and millennia-old conflicts, all wrapped up in the sort of cosmic sensibilities only ever teased in something like 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Guardians of the Galaxy, it co𒐪uld open up the MCU in an entirely unprecedented way.

That sort of scope has even been teased by star Kumail Nanjiani, who says The Eternals will be the “most epic” Marvel movie production yet, while hinting at a sci-fi direction for the upcoming 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Marvel Phase 4 movie.

during a recent interview. “It’s a superhero story, but in some wa𒀰ys, it’s the most sci-fi of all the Marvel movies and it’s the most epic of all th▨e Marvel movies. And the story spans thousands of years. So it’s really not like any of the other Marvel movies.”

That unique feeling even extends to the cast, which includes actors from all around the globe and from different backgrounds. As Nanjiani explained: “I was on set shootingไ, and the director showed me just a still of all of us together in the scene… We all look so different. It’s me and [Ma Dong-seok] and Salma Hayek and Angelina Jolie and Gemma Chan and Lauren Ridloff. You don’t ever get to see people like this together in the same room, let alone in awesome superhero costumes.”

It’s remarkable to think that, for Marvel’s 25th MCU movie, it’s still finding opportunities to introduce new stories, new experiences and, from the sound of it, a proper sci-fi superhero movie. Other Eternals news that has also emerged in recent months includes the release of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:the synopsis, which teases a fallout from 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Avengers: Endgame, while some 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:literall♋y out-of-this-world concept art doubles down on the fact that this wi🎀ll look like no🌊 other MCU movie before or since. The Eternals is set for release worldwide on November 6, 2020.
