Kevin Feige Teases Potential Future for Eternals in the MCU, Not So Much for Inhumans

Brazil’s D23 Marvel Studios panel is behind us. During the event, we got plenty of information regarding the MCU’s future as well as new looks at the upcoming movies and animated shows. A special look for ‘Thunderbolts*’ has been released as well as a new trailer for ‘Captain America: Brave New World.’

Beyond what was showcased on the stage, Cinepop got the opportunity to speak to Marvel Studios head, Kevin Feige. Feige teased a bright future for Deadpool & Wolverine in the MCU and confirmed once again that Ali is still the star of ‘Blade’ despite the movie seemingly being stuck in development head.

Feige also briefly commented on the ‘Eternals’ movie. ‘Eternals’ was the first grand movie released following ‘Endgame’ and it flopped. The storyline was too ambitious and quite frankly, fans failed to connect with the characters. Despite the drawbacks, Feige stated that he is proud of the movie and is hopeful that they will return to the MCU:

Eternals, very proud of that movie. That cast was incredible. We’d be lucky to get any of them back at some point.

According to some past reports, ‘Eternals’ 2 was in development at some point, however, the project was shelved following the majestic failure of ‘The Marvels’ which forced the studio to reassess its development strategy.

Feige then talked about the potential Inhumans appearance in the MCU. The original show had a weak and confusing plot. It didn’t have a strong or engaging story, which made it hard for viewers to connect with the characters or the world. The characters didn’t have much depth, and their motivations weren’t clearly explained.

We had a cameo of Black Bolt in ‘Multiverse of Madness’ and we’ll see where – if and when – they return.

Which characters would you like to see in the future of the MCU? Eternals or Inhumans? Let us know in the comments below!
