For those who were eagerly awaiting a return to the cosmic grandeur of the ‘Eternals’, Kevin Feige’s recent statement crushes the hope. The Marvel boss, in a candid conversation with Inverse, claimed that there were “no immediate plans” for an Eternals sequel.
There are a lot of unanswered questions as ‘Eternals’ did not provide a conclusion and hinted at a bigger picture. Additionally, while not a fan favorite the movie did have big plans and was a different take on the superhero genre. So, what would become of the Eternals now?

Kevin Feige Does Give Hope For ‘Eternals’ Future
While Feige’s words might sound like the franchise’s end, he did offer a sliver of hope. “There are, and I think you’ve seen maybe in a trailer we’ve released recently, an acknowledgment of some of those events. Certain giant things came out of the ocean.” Moreover, this cryptic comment suggests that the Eternals’ story might not be entirely over.
Additionally, perhaps the Celestial will play a role in a future film, serving as a reminder of the Eternals’ legacy. Or maybe this is a clever misdirection, and the studio is quietly laying the groundwork for a sequel that will surprise us all. After all, this is Marvel we’re talking about – a studio renowned for its ability to keep secrets and subvert expectations.
So, while the wait for ‘Eternals 2’ continues, let’s focus on the exciting projects that are on the horizon. There’s always the possibility that the wait will make the eventual sequel even more satisfying.

Feige Hints At ‘Captain America: Brave New World’ Continuing The ‘Eternals’ Storyline
Feige’s reference to “certain giant things coming out of the ocean” is a clear nod to the recent trailer for ‘Captain America: Brave New World’. The footage showcases a massive battle taking place on Tiamut Island. The Island is the colossal landmass that formed when the Eternals defeated the emerging Celestial.
Additionally, the recent trailer for ‘Captain America: Brave New World’ has confirmed that the aftermath of this event will be a focal point of the film. We see Sam Wilson, as Captain America, flying over the massive landmass that Tiamut has become.
Moreover, this indicates that the film will explore the implications of this colossal new landmass. While this doesn’t guarantee an ‘Eternals’ sequel or the return of the original cast, it certainly suggests that the cosmic events of that film will continue to ripple through the MCU.
