Marvel’s Eternals disappointed audiences and the box office
When Marvel’s Eternals started in cinemas in 2021, those responsible should be among those responsible Disney spread disillusionment relatively quickly. The somewhat different superhero troupe was not really able to convince both critics and film fans. Only 47 percent is the score of the press reviews Rotten Tomatoes. with 73 percent falls the audience rating Although higher, it is far from outstanding.
Even the concentrated one could do it star power by Salma Hayek (Desparados), Angelina Jolie (Tomb Raider), Kit Harrington and Richard Madden (both: Game of Thrones) and Kumail Nanjiani (Star Wars: Kenobi). Eternals only managed a little over $402 million play at the box office. A rather underwhelming result for a Marvel blockbuster.
Leak says Eternals is getting a sequel
So the chances for a second part of the Eternals were more than bad. And yet there should apparently be a sequel. The management of the American-South Korean actor Ma Dong Seok apparently leaked production of Eternals 2. He played the character Gilgamesh in the first installment, and according to an exciting list of upcoming films starring the actor, he’s set to reprise that role.
In addition to productions such as Criminal City 4, Holy Night: Demon Hunters or Wilderness, the list actually includes the name “Eternals 2”. With no denials from the actor, Marvel or Disney making the rounds so far, fans are hoping that a second part could actually become a reality. Who is now curious whether the Eternals rightly assigned to the “Meh” category or maybe better than their reputation, they can look forward to their first screen adventure DisneyPlus treat.
