Footage shown at CCXP in Brazil last year pointed to
Eternals featuring a love triangle between Sersi (Gemma Chan), Ikaris (Richard Madden), and Dane Whitman (Kit Harington). Well, that's now seemingly been confirmed as Chan talked briefly about her role in the Marvel Studios movie during a recent interview with
Vanity Fair Italia.
"Sersi is the one that has the most affinity with humans," she explains in the translated quote. "[Indeed] she is even involved in two love stories, an absolute novelty for Marvel events and one of the reasons that attracted me of this project."
Between this and previous reports about
Eternals, it sounds like a big part of the film will revolve around Sersi trying to remain loyal to her people while stepping out of the shadows to protect humans. It's the latter which should lead to her crossing paths with Whitman, a rumoured archaeologist who stumbles across their existence while researching the existence of the Celestials.
Recently, rumours have been doing the rounds regarding the release of the first trailer for the movie and, as you might expect, it's expected to be attached to
Black Widow when it arrives in theaters in May (meaning it should find its way online a few weeks before then).
Are you guys excited for the MCU's first major love triangle in
Eternals?
