In a universe, that of Marvel Eternals came out last November. In another universe, it will come out next week. In our universe, it is currently scheduled for this November. And if all this bothers you and frustrates you, imagine what it’s like to be a part of it.
Of course, the delay of Eternals (i apparently another film imaginable) is not anyone’s fault. The release of covid-19 is the culprit and eventually all these movies will come out. But for actress Salma Hayek, whose new film Happiness has come out this week, the journey into the Marvel movie universe begins much earlier.
“Oh Ten, isIt’s weird, ”Hayek told io9 when asked about the film’s wait. “You know, I was one of the first people to throw … I was thrown months before they announced it. And you i can’t tell anyone. We have to wait. You are afraid to talk if you run away and everyone leaked. I didn’t leak! I was the secret! ”
Hayek found it especially difficult to keep the secret because he feels that his role, as leader of the Eternal Ajak, is a benchmark.
“It was very hard,” he said. “Just to be in a Marvel movie this is super diverse and being 54 to play a superhero. I’m a 54-year-old Mexican who acts like a superhero and eternal. Then they finally announce it. We do. Now, I can’t wait …then comes Corona. I have to wait another year. You [usually] you will have to wait for them to make all their special effects, it takes a long time to make them [that], but now two years ago. He has tested my patience. But what will you do? ”
G / O Media may receive a commission
Hayek also had nothing but great things to say about Chloe Zhao, the director of Eternals who was recently nominated for Golden Globes (and will probably be nominated for an Oscar) for her film Nomad.
“[Chloé] it is extraordinary. She’s the real thing, “Hayek said.” Very little green screen, real locations. The way you work with the camera, this will feel and look different from anything you’ve ever seen in the Marvel universe. “But my God, it was another delicious creature I was lucky enough to find in my life. I love him and I think we’ll get back to work.” work very well together “.
It means that Eternals 2? Nomadland 2? We do not know. May be! Meanwhile, Hayek is starring this week in another science fiction film: Happiness, co-starring Owen Wilson. It will be on Amazon Friday. Eternals is scheduled to be released on November 5th.
