A brand new look at Eternals has been teased via a new calendar. Eternals, based on the Marvel comic book series of the same name created by Jack Kirby, is one of the many installments in Marvel's Phase 4. The film will follow an immortal race of aliens created by the Celestials who have lived on Earth for over 7,000 years and unite to protect humanity in the present day.

Originally scheduled for release in November of 2020, Eternals has been delayed twice due to the COVID-19 pandemic. First, it was moved to February 12, 2021, and then to November 5, 2021, which marks a whole year from its original release date. The film's delayed release has meant that merchandise and promotional tie-in products that would have been planned for its two previous release dates are bound to leak out, sometimes even revealing details of the plot. Now fans are getting a new look at the next team in the MCU.

The Twitter account Cosmic_Marvel released a photo of a calendar that gives fans the best look at the Eternals characters yet, minus Angelina Jolie's Thena. The image showcases the various members of the Eternals family in their cosmic costume including Richard Madden as Ikaris, Gemma Chan as Sersi, Selma Hayek as Ajak, and Kumail Nanjiani as Kingo. Other characters include Brian Tyree Henry as Phastos, Lauren Ridloff as Makkari, Don Lee as Gilgamesh, Lia McHugh as Sprite, and Barry Keoghan as Druig.

Noteworthy is the absence of Angelina Jolie's Thena from the calendar, as Jolie was one of the first to sign on for Eternals and was originally believed to be the star of the film. Her absence could be for a number of reasons, stemming from too many characters already on the calendar to her absence hinting at an eventual plot reveal or turn for the character. It could even be something as simple as not being on the cover but still being featured inside the calendar or on the back cover.

Eternals is being teased as one of the most ambitious Marvel films to date. It's directed by Chloé Zhao, whose recent film Nomadland premiered on Hulu and has been garnering critical acclaim and awards buzz. Kevin Feige called Zhao's pitch for Eternals "the best he'd ever heard," and the director has admitted that Marvel has taken a big risk on the movie. She has teased an epic film that spans centuries, filming on multiple locations, and has cited The Revenant as a reference for its action scenes. She is teasing a very different movie for not only herself but for the MCU at large.
