ETERNALS Movie Trailer Breakdown + BLACK PANTHER 2 WAKANDA FOREVER Movie Title Explained
6There was a new trailer that dropped for the MCU Phase 4 release slate that includes: Shang-Chi and The Legend Of The Ten Rings Movie, The Marvels Movie, Black Widow Movie, Black Panther 2 Wakanda Forever Movie, Ant-Man And The Wasp Quantumania Movie, Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol 3 Movie, and Eternals Movie.
We’re going to start with the Eternals trailer breakdown and get into my thoughts on the MCU slate and what these new titles reveal about the movies.
In that Eternals trailer, there’s a lot to break down.
We open with Salma Hayek’s character, Ajak. In the comics, Ajak is actually a man who has the generic powers of an eternal super strength, speed, etc. Except she can communicate with this universe's Celestials. Last time we had a celestial was Ego, but most notably the celestial that used the power stone in Guardians 1.
This character right here is Sersi, played by Gemma Chan, an actress who actually played this character in Captain Marvel. Anyway, Sersi can control matter in such a way that she can reform and reshape a person. She appears to be doing some initiation for this character, Sprite- who can also manipulate matter, surrounded by the other Eternals.
So from left to right, the other Eternals are: Druig, played by Barry Keoghan, an actor who almost was cast as the MCU’s spiderman back in 2015. In the comics, Druig is generally a bad guy so expect his working with the Eternals to be temporary and there will be some sort of betrayal.
Next to him, there is Mikkari, her character is actually a man in the comics. Makarri we actually see using her super-speed later in the trailer- which is her most-notable ability.
Then there is Angelina Jolie’s Character Thena, who we actually see later in the trailer either training or fighting I think that’s Gilgamesh. You can see her sporting her sword- this comes from her notable power of weapon manifestation.
After her, we get Bryan Tyree Henry’s character Phastos who manipulates and uses cosmic energy generally as a projectile.
The rest of the ensemble is Ikarus- an all-powerful eternal. And then sprite who can manipulate matter.
Then there is a character to the far left here carrying a video camera - which is likely Kingo’s camera man we see later in the trailer- Kingo in this movie, is being reimagined from his comic book counterpart as a bollywood star. So, think of this guy as his agent or producer.
Then the big team-up scene shows our characters leaving the Aztect temple of the Space Gods- a bit dramatic, but the place in the comics actually kicks off the story of the main bad guys of the film, the Deviants, entering this world and fighting the Eternals, most notably Ikarus. In fact, this could be the place where we got that Thena fight scene.
So, that’s it for the Eternals trailer breakdown. However, we need to talk about Black Panther 2’s title and what it means for the sequel.
Being that Chadwick Boseman passed away, I think the title of this film means that the MCU is going to kill off his character of T’Challa as well. Think about it: Wakanda Forever is one of the many chants of even battle cries to unify the Wakandans in the heat of battle- almost as a form of inspiring words. What better time to use those words than in an uninspiring time such as the death of Wakanda’s leader. So, I think this movie will focus on Wakanda attempting to find a way to move on without it’s rightful king- this could entail the Wakandans need to fight any outside source that wants to take advantage of Wakanda’s guard being down. This could mean the introduction of Namor coming to destroy Wakanda for good and the Wakandans must unify to fight this threat.
Thank you all for watching! I’ll be covering more of what was revealed, so expect those videos coming soon.
