Marvel's The Eternals star Kumail Nanjiani is quite candidly sharing the incredible transformation his body went through as he prepared to play a superhero.

 

The stand-up comedian and Academy Award-nominated screenwriter of The Big Sick will be joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe alongside Angelina Jolie, Richard Madden and Kit Harington in The Eternals, playing the swordsman Kingo.
