Get ready Marvel fans as Oscar winning director Chloé Zhao (Nomadland) takes the MCU in a bold new direction with Eternals. The Eternals are team of immortal heroes looking down at Planet Earth from the cosmos. Their goal is to protect humanity from the Deviants, an all-powerful unstoppable collection of monsters. Their leader, Ajak (Salma Hayek) informs them when it’s time to come together as they’ve spent many centuries dating back to 5000BC protecting humans. There’s a fine line as they’re told not to interfere with human conflict, including Thanos. In present day London, Gemma Chan’s Sersi and Lia McHugh’s Sprite are the first to witness the return of the Deviants. They know the Eternals must reunite if they’re going to stop the Deviants. It’s been centuries since they’ve all seen each other and they’re now living across the world leading their own private lives.
