In just a few weeks, Marvel Studios’ much-awaited flick Eternals arrives on the big screen. But, before the world meets the new set of Marvel’s heroes, they can ask the cast of the upcoming film all their burning questions. Perhaps it’s time to find out why the Eternals did not stop Thanos from wiping out half the population of the universe.
The studio has invited fans to share their questions ahead of the world premiere of Eternals. On Twitter, Marvel revealed that the live premiere will take place on October 18, with the cast and crew of the film walking the red carpet and answering questions as part of live interviews.
Anyone interested in sharing a question with the Eternals stars can do so on Twitter by simply using the hashtag #MarvelQuestions. A few select fan questions will then be chosen and presenters at the live premiere will ask the latest heroes to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe to answer them. The announcement post also teased some surprises at the premiere. The event takes place roughly one week before Eternals screens at the Rome Film Festival.
This isn’t the first time that Marvel has chosen to include fans in this way. Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings had received a similar live premiere, and it was even live streamed by the studio’s social media channels. Due to the ongoing pandemic, the number of attendees at the premiere was quite limited. But, fans still felt included and appreciated the effort by the studio to involve them.
A lot of surprises have also been promised by the studio as part of the Eternals world premiere. Will Marvel be making any large last-minute announcements? At the premiere of Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, the studio had confirmed that Sir Ben Kingsley was officially going to be a part of the cast. This bit of news confirmed that the notorious Trevor Slattery from Iron Man 3 would be returning to the MCU.
Fans are looking forward to Eternals finally being released. The film, directed by Academy Award-winning director Chloe Zhao, was initially scheduled for a 2020 premiere. However, its release was postponed by a year. With the film releasing soon, the hype around it and fan expectations are quite high at this point. It will be interesting to see whether the film is able to live up to these expectations.
Eternals premieres in theaters on November 5, 2021.
