Marvel Studio Head Kevin Feige Says "There Are No Immediate Plans For ETERNALS 2"

Marvel Studios’ Eternals movie was not a big hit for the studios and it’s considered to be a critical and commercial failure. When it was released it became one of the worst-reviewed MCU films.

Then Marvel’s Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania came along and that ended up having the lowest Rotten Tomatoes score for a Marvel movie.

Marvel Studios sees that fans aren’t asking for an Eternals sequel as studio head Kevin Feige confirms there are no plans in the works for Eternals 2.

During an interview with Inverse, he said: "There are no immediate plans for Eternals 2. There are, and I think you've seen maybe in a trailer we've released recently, an acknowledgment of some of those events. Certain giant things came out of the ocean."

I’m sure that we’ll see some of these characters from Eternals again at some point down the road, but it most likely won’t be in a sequel.

Eternals could’ve and should’ve been a much better movie. This thing should’ve been epic on every level and told an incredibly strong story with strong characters, but not once did any of these characters feel like they were Eternal beings that have amassed thousands of years of knowledge.

That’s just one of a ton of things that didn’t work for me with this film. When previously talking about the reception of the movie, Kumail Nanjiani said:

"I knew it wasn't me. I think that there were a lot of things that went into it. I love that movie and I'm very proud of that movie. I've seen that movie a bunch of times because it's my kind of movie, and a lot of my stuff I don't watch.

“It was really, really hard because Marvel thought that movie was going to be really, really well reviewed, so they lifted the embargo early and put it in some fancy movie festivals and they sent us on a big global tour to promote the movie right as the embargo lifted.

"The reviews were bad, and I was too aware of it. I was reading every review and checking too much. I think there was some weird soup in the atmosphere for why that movie got slammed so much, and I think not many much of it has to do with the actual quality of the movie.

“It was really hard and that was when I thought it was unfair to me and unfair to Emily and I can't approach my work this way anymore. Some shit's gotta change, so I started counseling and I still talk to my therapist about that."

Eternals follows a race of immortal beings with superhuman powers who have secretly lived on Earth for thousands of years, but they've been instructed to only interfere when evil Deviants are involved, which is why they didn't help stop Thanos, or any other awful war or event in history.
