The Marvel Cinematic Universe has seen its fair share of hits and misses, with the 2021 film Eternals marking a significant low point. Despite boasting a star-studded cast, including Angelina Jolie, the film faced criticism and ultimately received a ‘rotten’ rating on Rotten Tomatoes, prompting a reevaluation of its future within the franchise.
While studio head Kevin Feige confirmed last year that there are no current plans for an Eternals sequel, there are whispers that it may still be revisited in an alternative format. This remains speculative, as the MCU continues to evolve with new narratives.
One notable aspect of Eternals was the cameo of Harry Styles, who introduced his character Eros, also known as Starfox, the sibling of Thanos, in a brief yet memorable appearance. Since then, however, there has been little to no follow-up on his role or potential storyline, leaving fans eager for updates on his character’s future in the MCU.
The uncertainty surrounding Eternals and its characters serves as a reminder of the ever-changing landscape of the Marvel cinematic universe, where projects can undergo transformation or be shelved altogether. As the MCU gears up for new chapters, the speculation surrounding lingering characters like Eros leaves room for hope that these narratives may eventually find their place in the vast Marvel tapestry.
Marvel enthusiasts continue to monitor developments, holding onto the possibility that Styles’ character could reappear in upcoming ventures, further intertwining the complex relationships within the MCU.
