Chloe Zhao's The Eternals: First Look At The Marvel Movie's Trailer
Marvel has officially released the first look at its latest upcoming film, Eternals. The superhero film, which is set to hit the big screens on November 5, is the next big film by Chloé Zhao, who is fresh off her spectacular win for best picture and best director at the Oscars for her film, Nomadland.
The teaser, which was released on all Marvel's social media channels last night, was actually a hype reel of Marvel's upcoming films following their break from theatrical releases as a result of the pandemic.
While it does not provide as much footage of Eternals as we would like, we do get a few quick flashes of the film's bigger stars.
The sneak peek shows Salma Hayek, who plays the character Ajak, riding a horse, Richard Madden as Ikaris leading the team and Kumail Nanjiani as Kingo as he looks off into the distance.
However, the highlight of the reel was Marvel fans getting to see Angelina Jolie, who plays Thena, swinging a giant sword of light while decked out in her superhero gear.
