Angelina Jolie and Thena

Thena is the eldest daughter of Zuras, leader of the Eternals of Earth and Cybele. She has superhuman strength, speed, stamina, durability, agility, and reflexes. But her super specialty is she can manipulate cosmic energy to further her life and also shoot energy from her body parts in form of heat, light and others. Apart from that, she can teleport others, can create illusions and can form a Uni-mind. She has a bow that shoots arrows that can make many feel intense cold and also holds a spear that has the ability to surround a victim with a ring of heat and light.

Salma Hayek – Ajak

Ajak is a male eternal in Jack Kirby’s comic book. He was worshipped by Incans and buried deep in a tomb till Ikaris resurrects him. The character can fly and teleport. After Hayak was finalised for the role, she exclaimed on Instagram, “I’m so excited to join the Marvel family as Ajak, the mother of all Eternals. It used to be the father of all Eternals, but girls … this is OUR time !!!!” So you know what to expect. Eternals: Did You Spot Harish Patel aka Gunda’s Ibu Hatela in Marvel’s First Teaser Of Chloe Zhao’s Superhero Film?

Kumail Nanjiani – Kingo

A Bollywood superstar with superpowers… that’s a dream come true for any Hindi movie but alas, that exists in MCU. Kingo as per the comic book, most skilled swordsmen on Earth who trained from the Samurais. He transitioned so much because of his training that he became a Japanese action hero there. Guess with Kunal’s inclusion, the film world was changed to Bollywood.

Richard Madden – Ikaris

Ikaris in the comic was shown as an undercover eternal disguised as a human. His abilities are levitating others and teleport ing. He can also shoot rays cosmic rays from his eyes if he wills it. We are pretty sure he will in the movie.

Don Lee – Gilgamesh

Don Lee is one of the most popular actors in South Korea. He plays Gilgamesh, the forgotten one. He was banished by Zuras as he liked to spend a lot of time with humans. He even joins the Avengers in the comic.

Lauren Ridloff – Makkari

In yet another gender-swapped avatar, Lauren Ridloff will be seen playing Makkari. Makkari is a speedster and is known to be quite impatient.

Lia McHugh – Sprite

Sprite seems like a young boy but is 100 years old. He can change appearances and often indulgences in playing pranks on his own kind. These gender-swap roles seem really interesting.

Brian Tyree Henry – Phastos

Brian Terry Henry’s Phastos has the ability to fly and is very strong and fast. He is also an engineer who made Kingo’s sword.

Gemma Chen – Sersi

For the love of humans and also Ikaris.

Kit Harrington – Dane Whitman or Black Knight

Dane is a non-eternal. He is a physicist who inherited the Black Knight title from his uncle. He may not have superpowers but he is quite deft with his sword.

Barry Keoghan – Druig

A loner and KGB agent, Druig is also Ikaris’ cousin. His powers are teleporting, flying and manipulating atoms. The character is played by the Dunkirk fame Barry Keoghan. This character has a conflict with the other Eternals as he doesn’t like the way they treat humans. He can manipulate minds too.
