Eternal Marvel on TF1: Who are the characters in the post-credit scenes?

The new opus of the Marvel Universe, The Eternals introduces new characters that we will undoubtedly see interacting with the Avengers, such as the Hulk or the new Captain America, who will soon have his own solo film. But did you hear all about the movie’s post-credits scenes? deciphered.

Scene 1: New arrival

While Thena (Angelina Jolie) and McCurry (Lauren Ridloff) worry about not seeing their friends on Earth, a little person arrives who is clearly a bit drunk. It’s Pip, a hedonistic troll played by Patton Oswalt, who announces the arrival of a new character to the Eternals by listing his accomplishments:

Titan’s royal prince, Thanos’ brother, Jack of Hearts, Black Roger’s Victor, Starfox, the great adventurer of the mysterious planet…

Eros is eternal, he is indeed the brother of Thanos and like him comes from the planet Titan. Gifted with several powers common to Eternals (longevity, the ability to fly), he has the mental ability to activate the pleasure centers of his interlocutors’ brains, even to the point of creating feelings of love or comfort. He will be played by Harry Styles, actor and member of the boy band One Direction.

The mention of Black Roger recalls the story of Eros present in N°65 Marvel Comics PresentationsIn which Eternal is confronted by “Dark Roger”, a man in armor who lives on a secret planet.

In the comics, Janet Van Dyne named Eros to Starfox, as did The Wasp when she joins the Avengers. His capabilities and extensive knowledge of technology are a valuable addition to the group. She will also use the opportunity to seduce She-Hulk or Monica Rambo. It was his “Butcher of Hearts” that gave him the nickname “The Butcher of Hearts”, which translates as “The Mole of Hearts”.

Scene 2: The Mysterious Sword

Dane Whitman (Game of Thrones actor Kit Harington) finds himself in front of an ancient Zanduk. Hesitant to open it, he ends up plunging in and discovers the sword. “Mors mihi lucrum” is written in the lid of the box. This Latin inscription means “Death is my reward”.

The Ebon Glaive is a cursed weapon created from a meteorite. It can cut through almost anything, repels energy attacks, but gradually absorbs its wielder until it completely disappears inside the sword. Whitman moves closer to grab her, but there’s a sound!

She asks Whitman if he is sure about what he wants to do. That voice is actor Mahershala Alice, who will play vampire hunter Eric Brooks/Blade in the upcoming film in the Marvel Universe. The character was already seen in the trilogy performed by Wesley Snipes. The new Blade feature film has been awaited for years, but the shoot has had many setbacks and it is not ready for release.

Marvel Studios is gradually laying the groundwork for exploring the dark side of the universe. Blade is about to arrive, and with it vampires, the Black Knight and his cursed sword have already been introduced, and the Disney+ offering Werewolf By Night features the swamp creature and werewolf Jack Russell, played by Gael Garcia Bernal, in black and white and color. !

What does the studio plan to do with this microcosm in its giant universe, which has now been further expanded thanks to the multiverse presented in several recent films such as Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, the Loki series or Spider-Man: No Way Home?

Maybe he’ll form the team known in the comics as Midnight’s Sons, which includes Blade, Ghost, Jack Russell, Doctor Strange, The Man, Morbius, and the Moon Knight. All of these characters have already appeared on screen, big or small, and may be reunited soon… but against whom? The question remains!
