New 'Eternals' Deleted Scene Explores Sprite's Illusions

In a new Eternals deleted scene, fans get a look at the relationship between Sprite and Dane Whitman , Sersi's seemingly normal boyfriend. Sprite's power is to create illusions, which she often uses to hide the fact that she's forever trapped in the body of a child, despite being centuries old like her Eternal peers.

"Why can't they ever get Thena's likeness right?" Sprite asks, rhetorically, in the deleted scene. When Whitman tries to correct her and tell her it's Athena, not Thena, she looks at him as if he's the stupidest man alive, in a way that's particularly devastating coming from a child.

COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY There are several layers to this deleted scene, and while it wasn't necessary for the film, it does add some depth to what we know about Whitman, whom we don't get to see a ton of during the main narrative arc of Eternals. At the end of the film, it's revealed that he knows more than he lets on about the world of superheroes and their history on Earth. However, we don't get a lot of time to understand what he actually knows.

Beneath the surface, we know that everything Sprite says is true. But how much does Whitman believe? Watching the movie the first time through, you'd assume he's just a human man trying to win over his girlfriend's niece. But upon rewatch he might be taking Sprite more seriously than he would be comfortable admitting.

Eternals also stars Angelina Jolie, Richard Madden, Salma Hayek, Kumail Nanjiani, Brian Tyree Henry, Lauren Ridloff, Barry Keoghan, and Ma Dong-seok. Marvel's Eternals is out on all major digital platforms today and will be available on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, and DVD on February 15.
