How do Eternals End?

“Eternals”Indeed, they have assembled. Marvel Studios’ latest superhero team the Eternals — immortal creatures from a far-away planet (played with varying degrees of glamour and sophistication by very big movie stars like Salma Hayek, Gemma Chan, Angelina Jolie, and Kumail Nanjiani) — have arrived on Disney+. And if you have a question about where they ended up – and why – we’re here to clear things up for you.

Major spoilers “Eternals” follow.

Story So Far

“Eternals”This story is about a group super-powered, ageless beings sent to Earth to defend humanity from the Deviants. The story opens 7,000 years ago when the Eternals save primitive man from the threat. As the movie progresses, we get flashbacks to them not only saving people but also inspiring and teaching them – to learn, to think for themselves, to dream and desire and create. The Eternals and the man have always been connected throughout history. As the years pass, they become closer to each other. Eternals see what began as orders to protect as genuine concern. They care about humanity.

When the Deviants come back in modern times, the Eternals take action. The Eternals, who have long ago been scattered to the four winds look to regroup and suppress this evil. Along the way they realize that the Deviants aren’t as much of a threat as the otherworldly god, named Arishem, who sent them to earth in the first place. (If the Eternals are Charlie’s Angels, then Arishem is Charlie.) It turns out that Arishem has sent them to protect mankind because it benefits him and his race of Celestials – and that a new Celestial will be born soon on Earth. Unfortunately, the entire planet will be destroyed once the new god appears. Some of the Eternals just want to follow Arishem’s orders, while others take a stand and fight against them, stopping the new Celestial from being born and saving all of humanity. Interfering in the cosmic plan has its consequences.

The movie ends with Druig (Barry Keoghan), Makkari, (Lauren Ridloff), & Thena (Angelina Jolie), boarding their ship the Domo in search of more Eternals. The remaining Eternals are still alive and trying to return to their lives after the global threat was discovered. But, as they are, say, walking with a loved one in a posh English park, three of them – Seri (Gemma Chan), Kingo (Kumail Nanjiani), and Phastos (Brian Tyree Henry) – are zapped into space. They are floating in the middle of a sea of stars in front Arishem.

Arishem tells them that he is pretty upset that they foiled his plan and allowed for the people of Earth to survive, at the cost of a new Celestial’s life. He promises to scan their memories (memories can be a). The whole thingIn “Eternals”If he believes they are worthy to live, then they will be allowed to continue living. He claims that he will be returning to pass his final judgment, and that’s quite frightening. This sequence has the same kind of cosmic grandeur as the movie, but with more intensity and ominousness. Space is amazing, but it can also be terrifying. This sequence ensures that “Eternals”(until its 2 credits sequences) Ends on a haunting, singularly strong note.

Where are they now?

Here’s the really interesting part of this whole final moment – when we cut back to certain characters during the trademark Marvel Studios end-credits sequences, we don’t see any of the characters appearing before the very mad Celestial. Instead, we see the crew of the Domo and, later, Kit Harrington’s Dane Whitman, who is Sersi’s human boyfriend. Where the rest of the Eternals are remains a huge question – are they still in space, waiting for judgement? Are they free? Did Arishem transport them to an area where they could face his wrath again?

It’s one thing for the movie to end on a cliffhanger and another entirely for it to literally be dangling in zero G. But this is how things are left. This is how things will continue until we meet up with the “Eternals”In a sequel or another team-up movie. Their fate is still unknown.
