Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness  is set to be a sequel that reaches far beyond Benedict Cumberbatch's franchise. Marvel Studios' May release will also address the plot of Elizabeth Olsen's  WandaVision , and rumblings of  Loki  ties have been active since the God of Mischief broke the Sacred Timeline last summer. The presence of Benedict Wong's Wong also links his 2021 Marvel appearances,  Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings  and  Spider-Man: No Way Home , to  Doctor Strange 2 .  Out of all the Phase 4 projects fans have seen so far, the only one without a clear path moving forward is Chloe Zhao's  Eternals . ADVERTISEMENT The immortal ensemble was a game changer, but its placement in the greater Marvel Cinematic Universe remains unknown. With half the roster killed off and the active members splitting up, the futures of Sersi and company are still in question. Some have been brought before Arishem for judgement, whi...

Due to streaming wars, mergers, pandemic-related shutdowns and delays, and uncertainty concerning theaters, recent months haven't been kind to film studios. However, the same can't be said for certain Hollywood stars, such as Barry Keoghan. Within the past year, the actor has appeared in Marvel's Eternals as Druig, as well as Warner Bros.  The Batman  in a surprise role. The Irish actor first caught Hollywood's eye for his 2017 roles in  The Killing of a Sacred Deer  alongside Colin Farrel and Nicole Kidman and in Christopher Nolan's Dunkirk . ADVERTISEMENT Despite the actor having multiple new projects on the docket and the potential to continue in both the MCU and any possible sequels to The Batman , Keoghan just made headlines for a different reason.  Marvel's Eternals Barry Keoghan Arrested in Dublin Marvel According to the UK-based Metro, actor Barry Keoghan was arrested in Dublin on the morning of Sunday, April 10 due to ...

Marvel Studios' fanfare has evolved through the years, featuring memorable scenes from the Infinity Saga. Whenever the iconic Marvel introduction is being shown, many would agree that it serves as a beacon of something special while also enhancing the movie-going experience. At the start of Phase 4, the studio dramatically altered its introduction by including notable scenes from new projects.  During WandaVision 's premiere, an updated Marvel Studios fanfare featured memorable scenes from Avengers: Endgame , highlighting the A-Force sequence, Rescue and Iron Man's team-up, the Avengers traveling through the Quantum Realm, Captain America wielding Mjolnir, and Tony Stark’s iconic snap. ADVERTISEMENT Fast forward to Hawkeye , another version of the Marvel Studios fanfare was unveiled. This time, scenes from Black Widow and Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings  were included, featuring MCU newcomers Florence Pugh as Yelena Belova and Simu...

Marvel Studios is coming off of one of its most successful films in all of the MCU, both critically and financially, thanks to Tom Holland's  Spider-Man: No Way Home . Ironically, the movie that released just before it, Chloé Zhao’s Eternals , became the lowest-rated film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe on Rotten Tomatoes. But does it deserve it? That’s the million-dollar question amongst audiences who have watched it, and thanks to its recent debut on Disney+, discourse on the topic still rages on. Even the movie’s director encouraged fans to add to the discussion as it became available to stream all over the world. ADVERTISEMENT With how hyped up the project was prior to its release, it was certainly a letdown for the project to land as flatly as it did. Now, Zhao has once again spoken out about the divisive reception to the film and spoke candidly about the whole situation. Chloé Zhao Gets Candid on Eternals Marvel In an interview with Empire O...

Marvel Studios has undeniably crafted the biggest and most fleshed-out world in Hollywood history with the MCU. With current fans now being treated to upwards of three films and four Disney+ series a year, it's easy to forget how this all started with just six films releasing in Phase 1 from 2008 to 2012. Crafting this world has taken an immense amount of collaboration between creatives on different projects with producer and studio president Kevin Feige sitting at the helm of it all. After the pandemic caused production issues and subsequent delays for the post- Endgame  world, Phase 4 kicked off with a bang with  WandaVision  in January 2021. The studio went on to revisit many fan-favorite heroes across the year including Black Widow, Loki, and Spider-Man, but moviegoers were also introduced to some new friendly faces like Shang-Chi and the Eternals. ADVERTISEMENT Coordinating all the different heroes and franchises takes a lot of work for the stud...

Marvel Studios is moving full speed ahead with the hype train for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness , the MCU's first theatrical release of 2022. Directed by Sam Raimi, most famous for the 2000s Spider-Man trilogy, this movie is looking to turn the Marvel universe on its head in multiple ways. With A-list cameos and wild visual effects, Doctor Strange 2 is already near the top of fans' anticipation lists for this year's blockbuster films. Adding to the excitement is the second full trailer for Doctor Strange 2 , which broke the internet upon its debut at Super Bowl LVI. ADVERTISEMENT With ties back to the events of Elizabeth Olsen's WandaVision and teases pointing to the introduction of the Illuminati, the trailer is already becoming the source for crazy theories about what's coming this May. How much of that comes true is still a mystery, but regardless of what happens, Raimi has the chance to deliver one of the MCU'...

Upon the completion of Marvel's Infinity Saga, it seemed that the Multiverse was the MCU's next big threat, affecting characters from Loki to Wanda Maximoff to Peter Parker and Doctor Strange. While that appears to be true, one of Marvel's latest Phase 4 films, Eternals , didn't seem to contribute to the greater MCU or the current phase's overarching story at all. However, according to Eternals ' creators, it absolutely will.  Now,  Eternals was a unique and ambitious film from the start. In addition to introducing an ensemble cast of new characters, Eternals covered thousands of years of history and featured the enormous, cosmic Celestials. All of this came with no help from a Nick Fury or any prior MCU character cameos.   ADVERTISEMENT While some appreciated its gorgeous visuals and themes of humanity and morality following its November 5, 2021 release, others felt it was too big of a swing and too separate from the MCU itself...

With big films like Spider-Man: No Way Home  and  Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness , it's easy to forget some of the newcomers fans welcomed into the Marvel Cinematic Universe last year. Among them were the likes of Kang the Conqueror, Monica Rambeau, Sam Wilson's new Captain America, Yelena Belova, and Kate Bishop. However, the biggest group to join the party was the Eternals. In Chloé Zhao's cosmic epic, fans were introduced to over a dozen new characters. Most among them were the heroic team of beings who have been on Earth for 7,000 years. Big names such as Angelina Jolie, Richard Madden, and Kumail Nanjiani joined the MCU's ranks and became new heroes for fans worldwide to look up to—well, apart from Madden, given his shift in allegiance. ADVERTISEMENT There have been many great stories from behind the scenes of the picture, such as Jolie helping deaf co-star Lauren Ridloff or hearing about how much fun Harry Styles had on...

Marvel Studios' Eternals is making the rounds during its streaming run on Disney+ as fans take in every detail of the cosmic MCU epic. This includes the opportunity to dive deeper into the story that came in the film's 156-minute runtime. From Ikaris and Sprite's betrayals to the introduction of Harry Styles' Starfox, Eternals had no shortage of twists and turns to add to the MCU. Along with the jam-packed plot came Marvel Studios' usual round of Easter eggs, for which fans are always on the lookout upon every MCU release. Although some of them tease out-of-story plot points like the GRC from The Falcon and the Winter Soldier , with others paying tribute to the Star Wars universe, Eternals didn't shy away from exciting nods to its own story. ADVERTISEMENT The big one came when fans found out that the voice Kit Harington's Dane Whitman heard in his post-credits scene was that of Mahershala Ali's Blade. However, after some...

Having just recently introduced the world to ten new immortal heroes at once, many of whom played by Hollywood legends, Chloe Zhao's  Eternals  could be the most ambitious MCU outing yet. However, despite the praise that the big-screen blockbuster received for its diversity,  Eternals  was heavily panned among both critics and fans. However, that almost certainly won't stop Marvel Studios from bringing them back in future projects and learning from its mistakes. Eternals  featured a dramatic cliffhanger that saw the Celestial Arishem arrive to judge Earth, several Eternals meet their demise, and others out in space with Harry Styles' Eros. Looking to the future, a sequel seems to be near certain, but before then, some immortal heroes are likely to pop up in other MCU projects. ADVERTISEMENT Recent evidence suggests that the Eternals' return may be coming sooner than expected as one actor looks to be reprising his role as soon as this summ...

Chloe Zhao's  Eternals  rewired the Marvel Cinematic Universe's DNA. The epic spanned thousands of years, journeying into ancient civilizations through a Marvel Studios lens that connected to a present-day apocalyptic narrative. Boasting a cast that included A-Listers and award-winning actors such as Angelina Jolie and Richard Madden on top of the golden stamp of approval from Marvel President Kevin Feige,  Eternals  appeared primed for success hitherto undreamt of. While  Eternals  was far from a failure, the immortal ensemble's first installment left a lot to be desired. ADVERTISEMENT The film is currently the only Marvel Studios picture to receive a rotten score on Rotten Tomatoes and also raked in the lowest opening weekend domestic box office for an MCU film since 2015's  Ant-Man . Despite those underwhelming numbers,  Eternals  proved to be a high-demand property with its record-breaking Disney+ debut. Three months after it was rel...

Marvel Studios took major steps toward expanding the MCU with 2021's Eternals by introducing more than a dozen important cosmic players. While the core team with players like Angelina Jolie's Thena and Richard Madden's Ikaris carried the core plot, the two post-credits scenes changed the game in various ways. That started off by introducing Harry Styles' Eros and Patton Oswalt's Pip the Troll as the pair teleported onto the Domo. While Eternals struggled critically upon its worldwide release, the movie had to deal with other major struggles behind the scenes long before that as well. Marvel was able to complete all filming for the movie before the pandemic hit, but the team was forced to finish all of its VFX work remotely as Eternals faced release delays. ADVERTISEMENT One specific piece of VFX work that raised some eyebrows was the CGI for Pip the Troll, an obscure Marvel character that made headlines upon his mid-credits scene d...

Last year's  Eternals  may not have been the most well-received Marvel Studios film of all time, but it wasn't without its achievements. The family of Celestial-born beings has now entered the spotlight alongside some of the biggest superhero groups of all time. They might not be as big as The Avengers, or The Guardians of the Galaxy, but they could easily get there. They'll certainly have competition in the coming years, however. Their ensemble isn't yet a match for the big leagues, like those mutants or Fantastic Four—but obscure characters have taken over the stage before, so the group's time could come. ADVERTISEMENT Marvel is definitely aiming for that goal, at the very least. The company just announced its new massive summer 2022 crossover comic event, and it's set to bring together the Eternals, Avengers, and X-Men. The twist? Well, it isn't a happy gathering. Far from it. Avengers vs X-Men vs Eternals Marvel official...

Chloé Zhao's  Eternals  may not have had the best reception, but ever since it hit Disney+, it has been performing surprisingly well. Scores of people heard the discussion surrounding the MCU project and decided to wait until it hit streaming to give it a chance. With the film now out, many more people worldwide are getting to experience the cosmic epic that introduced over a dozen new characters into the MCU. One of the biggest introductions was Harry Styles' Eros, whose arrival on the scene didn't happen until after the credits rolled. He wasn't alone, as he was accompanied by Patton Oswalt's Pip the Troll. ADVERTISEMENT Eternals The scene saw the two teleporting into the Domo to recruit the remaining Eternals for their mission to help them find their lost brothers and sisters. But how exactly did the two teleport in the first place? Viewers probably noticed that there was no golden Doctor Strange portal—or one of any specific colo...

Featuring an all-star cast with the likes of Richard Madden as Ikaris and Salma Hayek as Ajak while also teasing big things for the franchise's cosmic future, Eternals  continues making its mark with fans across the world able to stream it from the comfort of home.
