MS. MARVEL Star Iman Vellani Wonders Whether Marvel Introduced Starfox In ETERNALS "For The Sake Of It"

Ms. Marvel and The Marvels star Iman Vellani has shared her thoughts on Harry Styles joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe, admitting she's unsure whether Eros' cameo was in Eternals "for the sake of it."

Ms. Marvel remains Marvel Studios' highest-rated TV series on Rotten Tomatoes, and newcomer Iman Vellani looks set to have a very exciting few years ahead of her in the MCU. 

This summer, she'll star alongside Brie Larson and Teyonah Parris in The Marvels, but the character is expected to remain a crucial part of The Multiverse Saga as Avengers: The Kang Dynasty and Avengers: Secret Wars draw near. it's no secret that the actress is a big Marvel fan, and she's now shared her thoughts on Eternals.

In contrast to Ms. Marvel, that's Marvel Studios' lowest-rated release, and their only "Rotten" movie. 

Below, Vellani is asked to weigh in on Harry Styles joining the MCU as Eros/Starfox, and admitted to being conflicted about it. In fact, she even questions Marvel Studios' intentions! 

"Ohhh, I feel so weird about it! I don’t know. It’s strange. I wonder, I really wonder if they’re gonna go ahead and do something with the character, or if they just teased it for the sake of it," the actress says. "Because I know Chloe Zhao is a big Harry Styles fan. But then you have all of the Harry Styles fandom in the MCU fandom, how chaotic would that be?"

There's been no sign of Styles' Eros since Eternals was released at the end of 2021, leaving many fans to also wonder whether he was there for the sake of it! Plans for all the characters introduced in the movie remain unclear, even amid rumblings Marvel Studios is plotting a sequel. 

Perhaps there will be room for them in one of the upcoming Avengers movies? Either way, Vellani isn't wrong about the singer and actor's fandom making for a unique mixture when combined with MCU fans! 

The Marvels is set to be released in theaters on July 28.

Everytime she comments on something MCU related, it feels more and more like she should be the next Kevin Fiege.

Iman really knows what's up. Wouldn't surprise me if she's also the author of that upcoming timeline book

Like the little girl knows all of Lord Feige's plans & plots for all the characters in the MCU.

Yawn. There is no story here. Just something the kid said in passing.

1) it’s sincerely refreshing to see an actual fan of Marvel comics be in the MCU. Iman gets it and I hope she stays in the MCU for a long time

2) if Chloe put Harry in simply because she’s a fan of him as an artist then sheesh - she really should be kept out of the MCU because what a rookie move

3) that post credits scene with Eros made Eternals even worse than it already was. People in my theater started laughing at the horror that was Pip the Troll’s CGI. [frick]ing woof Marvel - stop rushing out shitty VFX and have your house in order FFS

@TheLobster - generally agree. To me, the only redeeming scenes in an otherwise lifeless Eternals movie were Arishem, Eros and Pip. The other end credits scene (the purported voice of Blade) would have been impossible for mainstream audiences to discern.

It did seem like stunt casting and I always felt like they wouldn't follow through with it. But, if they do, he's getting recast. Harry comes with a lot of baggage.

No they introduced your character for the sake of it,I didn't hear anyone crying out "I want them to introduce Ms.Marvel."

If we're not getting Eternals 2, then surely The Marvels would be the next most logical place for Eros and Co to show up? Kamala is going to need help from someone in space while Carol figures out what's going on.
