Marvel made the most out of their presentation by bringing out the cast of The Eternals and confirming that Kit Harington and Barry Keoghan had joined the cast as The Black Knight and Druig, respectively.

Following the big Black Panther II news, Marvel Studios switched gears to The Eternals and brought out the entire cast while also revealing the first concept film from the highly ambitious intergalactic adventure.

The cast reveal also featured three big announcements as it was confirmed that Gemma Chan (Captain Marvel), Barry Keoghan (Dunkirk) and Kit Harington (Game of Thrones) had all joined the massive ensemble cast. Chan will be playing Sersi, who has been described as the film's lead while Keoghan has been cast as Druig.

Meanwhile, Harington will not be one of the Eternals as he's been cast as Dane Whitman, a.k.a. The Black Knight, so it seems as though his Watch hasn't quite ended just yet.

The trio join an ensemble that will also feature Academy Award-winner Angelina Jolie (Maleficent: Mistress of Evil) as Thena, Richard Madden (Game of Thrones) as Ikaris, Kumail Nanjiani (Silicon Valley) as Kingo, Lauren Ridloff (The Walking Dead) as Makkari, Brian Tyree Henry (Atlanta) as Phastos, Salma Hayek (The Hitman's Bodyguard) as Ajak, Lia McHugh (American Women) as Sprite and Don Lee (Train to Busan) as Gilgamesh.

I know that Marvel & Fortnite have partnered up before, but this seems a step too far!

Very interesting seeing Dane Whitman/Black Knight in this movie, given his history and relationship with Sersi in the books. I wonder if that will factor in with the early descriptions of the movie claiming a love story between Ikaris and Sersi. Maybe a love triangle?

Yay for Kit, I guess. I'd have hoped he was getting a higher profile role in the MCU.

As long as they're doing this, can we get a different role for Elizabeth Debicki? She's too good to just be playing that golden chick from Guardians 2.

Well damn, Marvel just going into overdrive now, bringing so many new characters into the playground.

Kit Harrington playing the Black Knight is inspired casting, I hope he appears with Sersi (Gemma Chan)in the current timeline so we can see them in a team-up movie like Avengers or Defenders (the real Defenders not the Netflix version) Also really pleased they recast Gemma Chan in another role, she's a great actress - check her out in HUMANS a British series, three seasons, she's really good.

It's really not fair how vast the difference in luck is between the Stark boys and the Stark girls when it comes to landing Marvel related roles.

@TheDoctor1225 - It's for ONWARD, his Pixar film. The press were most likely told that they're not allowed to ask questions on Spider-Man tho.
Also, unironically excited for Cruella. Really like that director, he did Lars & The Real Girl and I, Tonya. Also, Emma Stone's great in everything

I'm sorry but I'm not excited about The Eternals at all. I never enjoyed them in the comics nor care about anything they have done. The cast looks good but I'm skipping this one.

@TheAmericanPatriot - Comics does not equal movies. Marvel Studios has made that obvious many times with the properties they’ve adapted over the last decade. But skip away. Lol. Not a very smart stance.

FireandBlood - 8/24/2019, 11:44 AM
@TheAmericanPatriot - So without even seeing as much as a teaser, you’ve already decided to skip it? Your loss, I guess.

Yes!!! BP 2 has an official release date and we finally got our Sersi! Whenever the new Avengers movie comes out, the line up is going to be sick! Might even fight these guys.


SN: the rest of the MCU movies like GOTG, Ant-Man, and Doctor Strange will be available in 4k in October.

Roles should be easy money for Kit considering the nature of the character
