The two groups battled each other throughout history. The Eternals also warred with Greek, Roman and Norse deities before leaving Earth to explore the stars. The Eternals is set to hit theaters November 6th, 2020.

Marvel is prepping to begin shooting The Eternals this year with Angelina Jolie and THR is reporting that Kumail Nanjiani is in negotiations to star alongside. Nanjiani’s character details are being kept secret but Jolie is to be playing the character named Sersi, a more outgoing Eternal who has not been afraid to move amongst humankind. The project is being helmed by Chloe Zhao, based on the comic book series created by Jack Kirby in 1976. Author Neil Gaiman revised the series in the early 2000s which features the superpowered and near-immortal beings known as Eternals and a more monstrous offshoot known as the Deviants that were created by cosmic beings known as Celestials. Marvel had no comment.
