Marvel’s Eternals gets a new synopsis and TV spot

October 4, 2021 by Amie Cranswick

With just a month to go until Eternals arrives in cinemas, Marvel has released an international banner and new TV spot for the Phase Four blockbuster, along with an updated synopsis which reveals that the film will be split across two time periods; take a look here…

“The story takes place across two time periods. One storyline is set in the past when they operated as a formidable team and a close family unit. The second storyline is in the present, when the group has fractured and split apart, content to live among humans, hiding in plain sight. The prevailing threat of the Deviants, which once again threatens the existence of mankind, means the Eternals need to put their differences aside and regroup.”
