Kumail Nanjiani says The Eternals is 'the most sci-fi of all the Marvel movies'
What was his reaction to the reaction? “I really did not think it was going to get as big as it did,” Nanjiani, 41, tells EW. “I really was very surprised. I’d been shooting for a few months. I was in good shape. Christmas was coming and I was like, ‘I should take some pictures, because who knows how I’m going to look after Christmas?’ So I put those pictures up while I was shooting, and then I checked an hour later and there was some stuff and I was like, ‘Okay, good.
And it’s one that seemed almost custom-tailored to his specific tastes. “I love superhero movies, but beyond that, this isthe type of movie that I love,” he testifies. “If someone would say, ‘All right, what kind of movie do you want to watch? What are the things that’s going to have?’ I would say all these things. And that’s what this movie is. It really spans thousands and thousands of years. And the story is just soand so epic.
