They lived in space colonies and protected Earth from threats of genetically deformed and grotesque race, Deviants. Existing throughout history, the Eternals have influenced Greek, Norman, and Norse mythology. The comics portray a few dozens of the Eternals, but the movie focuses majorly on two most significant ones, Sersi and Ikaris.
What is the plot of The Eternals?
The Eternals essentially follows a large group of titular immortals that dwells throughout history. A leak suggests an era of Babylon 800 B.C. as a setting. Another leak shows Game Of Thrones fame, Kit Harington to play an archaeologist Dane Whitman probably in the present day, who finds evidence about the existence of The Eternals. This may or may not occur in the place called the Tomb of the Gods.
Gemma chan, who plays the Eternal Sersi, may enact the love-interest of Whitman. This unrecognized love could raise a central conflict in the story or minimally play a significant part. The Eternals resonates ancient vibes as told by Marvel Studios President, Kevin Feige.
The Wrap reported in April 2018 that a bunch of screenwriters arranged meetings to discuss a story that focuses on the female Eternal known as Sersi.
In the comics, Sersi was uniquely characterized as an Eternal who enjoyed living among humans despite her immense power. Eventually, she establishes in New York City, utilizes her elusive magic to jollify humans, and also becomes a party-planner.
