When Will Eternals 2 Release? Where Will It Fit Into The MCU Saga?

“Eternals” is one of the most ambitious Marvel Studios films to date. It’s an origin story for almost a dozen characters in some capacity, and it introduces a metric ton of new intergalactic lore to the MCU. It seldom interacts with any existing storylines, meaning all of this is brand new in-universe information.

Will they find a way to extract him without severely damaging the planet? Time will (hopefully) tell — especially if humanity isn’t deemed worthy enough once Arishem examines the Eternals’ memories.

Even if he’s dead, though, there’s still a frozen Celestial emerging from the planet’s core. If nothing else, that’s going to ruin more than a few days somewhere in the world.
