The Marvel Cinematic Universe has landed one of Hollywood’s biggest fish, it has been revealed, after reports suggested Angelina Jolie is closing a deal to star in a superhero movie based on The Eternals.

 

No official announcement has been made, but it is understood that Marvel is moving ahead with the project after studio president Kevin Feige confirmed its development last April, as part of Marvel’s so-called “Phase 4”.

 

The Wrap suggested the central character of The Eternals film – whom Jolie is presumably playing – is called Sersi, one of a group of near-immortal humans given superpowers by aliens.

 

(An online Marvel character profile identifies her with Circe, the witch from Greek myth who appears in Homer’s Odyssey.)

Marvel seems to have exhausted the good stuff and is now going for the scraps. At least they had a good run with the earlier films.

Don't worry. Loads of make-up, CGI and body-doubles will fix all that.

Well, she does want to save the world as a social justice warrior...so good match.

 

Think Brad got tired of all that, just wanted to smoke w**d and chill, so did a runner.

At least I won't have to wonder if the latest offering is worth the money to see it- it won't be.

Very few Hollywood movies are anymore. They are catering for "diverse" audiences now, the flicks are as gringeworthy as the US-Chinese "let's buy a US star to boost ticket sales" crap.

He should have stayed with Jenn as Angie looks like one anorexic cold fish.  But I must say in her younger days I saw her close up in LA and she was quite stunning.
