Marvel Studios, The Eternals, will now be premiered at the film festival circuit before releasing in the theatres on 5th November 2021. The detail was shared by the President of Physical and Post Production at the studio, Victoria Alonso. She revealed that the superhero epic, before making its way into the theatres, will first be screened at the Rome International film festival which is scheduled to start on 14th October.

Victoria was also seen recently revealing that Marvel is developing mind-blowing 31 television series and films currently.

She said, “We are currently working on 31 projects…It is a question about how are we handling multiple plates in the air at the same time, and the biggest thing is that sometimes the plates fall, and, you know, what are you going to do then? We want people to understand that the idea that we have, to tell these connected stories, it is important that the world knows that the characters we create, their stories have to do with how humans interact with each other.”

As the film inches closer to its releasing date, the studio has started releasing brand new images of its film character. One such poster was released featuring Kumail Nanjiani in his classic look. It was released on Empire magazine's cover.

The image gave a proper and detailed look at Nanjiani's character Kingo giving fans some idea of what they could expect in the film.

A few weeks ago, Kit Harrington who is set to play the role of Black Knight gave some important details about the character. In the interview, he did not reveal too much information but at the same time, he gave some hints.

He said, "He's not an Eternal. He's a character who works with the Natural History Museum in London. But he's not an Eternal - that's the main takeaway!" Harington added: "I've got no idea whether my character goes on or not. I had read up on who he could be or might be. So there's the possibility for a longer trajectory. And hopefully, I think this is the tip of the iceberg for my character. I hope. But I just don't know, you know? I'm as in the dark as anyone else. And I try not to live too far ahead in the future with anything. Even when I was in Game of Thrones, even on the sixth season, I presumed the seventh season wasn't going to happen!"

As per a claim by a Russian "Film Distributor Bulletin" Kino Metro the superhero epic Eternals will be one of the longest-running films in the superhero-based franchise. It states that the film will be 156 minutes long or two hours and thirty-Six minutes beating the running-time of Captain America: Civil War which is two hours and twenty-seven minutes, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 which is two hours and sixteen minutes, and Avengers: Infinity War which is two hours forty minutes.

The film has already been rated by the Motion Picture Association's Classification and Rating Administration as PG-13. According to the listing given by the administration, the film is categorized as "fantasy violence and action, abusive language, and brief sexuality."

The films and television shows which receive this rating generally have some scenes and material portraying "fantasy violence and action, abusive language, and brief sexuality which according to the authority are Inappropriate for Children Under 13.

The film is set before any MCU film as revealed by its star Kumail Nanjiani. He claims that the film will take place much before Captain America.

He said, "way, way, way back". He added more saying, "It's really, really exciting," Nanjiani further added, "It's a lot different than the other Marvel movies we've seen. It's a lot more cosmic.". "It really is about the beginnings of the Marvel universe, so we're telling a story...he [Kevin Feige] says spans thousands of years," the 52-year-old actor continues. "Before, you know, Captain America was the oldest member we've seen and now, it's going to be way, way, way back so it really is going to be the building blocks of the MCU."

Marvel Studios, The Eternals, will release in theaters on 5th November 2021, after a long wait when it was originally scheduled to be released in the theaters last year in November, but due to the devastating impact of the Coronavirus Pandemic, the studio later had to shift the movie to a new release date because all the theatres around the world were closed for a long time.
