They have watched, they have guided and helped them progress, throughout the years we have never interfered, until now. Behold the ancient ones arrive as Marvel release the first trailer for Chloé Zhao‘s The Eternals!

We’ve been eager to get a glimpse from the minute the cast was announced a couple of years ago. Also throw in the fact the director is now an Oscar winning filmmaker whose made a name for herself in arthouse dramas. This film is new territory in genre, however a confident filmmaker will rise to the challenge.

The film marks the third film of Marvel’s Cinema Universe Phase 4 with Black Widow, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings the other two. This film is set around the celestial superheroes created by Comic book legend Jack Kirby that spans over thousands of years. They have lived among for centuries helping and shaping us over those years and this trailer highlights that. And the end of the teaser trailer reveals they return post Avengers: End Game with a joke about “Who will lead the Avengers?”

The scope of this film is huge, as these immortals superheroes influence affects all MCU films. Not forgetting their makers The Celestials whose name has already been mentioned in the MCU and their bitter rivals The Deviants. Visually this looks wonderful and hopefully the kick up the back side to stop this packed genre getting stagnant.
