Quite a wide range of clips have been released ranging from the big budget Marvel film The Eternals (out November 5th), the low budget action film Snakehead (available in theaters, digital, and On Demand on October 29th), and a Disney Insider clip for the recently released Disney+ film Muppets Haunted Mansion. Check them out below...
The Eternals (Featurette - "Introducing the Eternals")
What separates the upcoming film The Eternals from the rest of the Marvel Cinematic Universe is the ensemble is far more ambitious in terms of number of lead players along with confirmation the film will explore the titular team across two timelines (in the far past and post-Endgame). As such, it's no surprise that a lot of the promotion for the film is about helping audiences sort who-is-who. (as demonstrated by previous TV spots and featurettes) The new featurette "Introducing the Eternals" works to further accent each character and their place in the larger MCU. Check it out below:
The Eternals stars Eternals stars Gemma Chan, Richard Madden, Kumail Nanjiani, Lia McHugh, Brian Tyree Henry, Lauren Ridloff, Barry Keoghan, Don Lee, Harish Patel, Kit Harington, Salma Hayek, and Angelina Jolie. It is directed by Chloé Zhao (who co-wrote the script with Patrick Burleigh, Ryan Firpo, and Kaz Firpo).
