As writer and director, Chloe Zhao had created a totally different Marvel Cinematic Universe film.

In the year 5000 BC, the supreme creator Celestial Arishem sent the Eternals to Earth on their triangular spacecraft called the Domo. Their mission was to fight and destroy the ferocious Deviants who were ravaging the planet. Their first encounter on the shores of Mesopotamia, and the fight will continue over the centuries all over the world.

After the last Deviant was killed 500 years ago, the Eternals split up and lived in different areas around the world, living their respective lives. However, when a Deviant suddenly attacked Sersi and Sprite in London, the group had to reband to resume their fight. However, a change of leadership revealed the secret of the real purpose for being.

However, the scenes in between were steeped in spectacular vast vistas and emotional serious conversations, in signature Chloe Zhao fashion. These differences can be seen and felt from the trailers alone, and are confirmed in the final 157-minute cut.

Selma Hayek played Ajak, the leader of their team, yet she surprisingly had very little screen time. Don Lee, whom we knew as Ma Dong-seok in "Train to Busan" , played strong man Gilgamesh with a lot of heart. Barry Keoghan was a cold and creepy Druig. Comic relief mostly came from Nanjail Kumari as Bollywood star Kingo, and Hamish Patel, as Kingo's human valet Karun.

Isko Moreno ‘hopeful’ of getting Duterte’s backing as Bong Go withdrawsICYMI: Senator Bong Go announced he was pulling out of the presidential race while Manila Mayor Isko Moreno Domagoso said he was “hopeful” of receiving President Duterte’s endorsement. Leni is probably hoping to get some Go voters. She said she supported ELCAC not for her base, they want it gone. But she finally showed support for a Du3O EO. That's good enough.
