Will there be an ‘Eternals’ sequel? Patton Oswalt appears to suppose so

Marvel did not announce something Eternals-related at this yr’s Comedian-Con, however Patton Oswalt, the voice of Pip the Troll, might have spilled the beans as as to if a sequel is on its approach.

In an August 2 interview on The As we speak Present, Oswalt mentioned his position within the 2021 superhero movie, which noticed him seem alongside Harry Types as Eros within the Eternals post-credit scene. He then stated, “They’ve introduced there’s going to be an Eternals sequel. Chloé Zhao goes to direct it. So hopefully, there can be extra adventures of Starfox and Pip.”

There really hasn’t been any official phrase from Marvel on Eternals 2, however the studio did announce its jam-packed Phases 5 and 6, often known as The Multiverse Saga. Upcoming tasks embrace The Marvels, Captain America: New World Order, and Guardians of the Galaxy: Quantity 3. With so many films (and remember all of the TV exhibits) within the works, the place would Eternals 2 even slot in?

Chances are high we might discover out at September’s D23 expo, the place Marvel will doubtlessly reveal much more tasks. Storyline-wise, the Eternals fall into the much more “cosmic” part of the MCU. Bear in mind, Eternals ended with the Celestial Arishem zapping a number of Eternals away with him into area. Now that they’ve left Earth, they’re within the firm of different space-faring heroes just like the Guardians of the Galaxy and Captain Marvel.

It is potential that Eternals 2 will cope with Arishem’s judgment of humanity, as instructed by the movie’s post-credit scene. Fueling that hypothesis is the truth that Marvel just lately filed to trademark the title Celestials: Finish of Time, which means that we’ll be getting extra Celestial motion quickly. Perhaps they will lastly handle the truth that there is a half-born Celestial simply protruding of the Earth?

Take that trademark information with a grain of salt — there’s an opportunity it could possibly be a title for brand new comics that do not tie into the MCU. Nonetheless, now that Oswalt has seemingly let the cat out of the bag, maintain an eye fixed out for extra information about Eternals 2 at D23.
