While much of Marvel’s focus right now is on its Phase Four-launching Black Widow [which just received a new trailer today], the Scarlett Johansson-headlined solo film isn’t the only MCU movie on the horizon as November is set to delve into a brand new corner of the universe with Eternals.
As filming on Eternals continues, Disney and Marvel have unveiled a brief synopsis for the film which is light on detail, but does tease the story and its characters; check it out here…
“Marvel Studios’ The Eternals features an exciting new team of Super Heroes in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, ancient aliens who have been living on Earth in secret for thousands of years. Following the events of Avengers: Endgame, an unexpected tragedy forces them out of the shadows to reunite against mankind’s most ancient enemy, The Deviants.
