The Marvel Cinematic Universe has been growing steadily since the last 10 years and has now become one of the most loved and well-known movie series in the world. Now that the third phase of MCU has come to an end with the epic Avengers: Endgame, Marvel Studios are leaving nothing to chance in making its next phase just as successful.

The Eternals movie will find the superheroes reuniting to protect the world from the Deviants. Not much information has been revealed villains from the film, however some LEGO toys do offer some clues to the character design. The Eternals were considered immortal as they were longer living while Deviants were genetically unstable and monstrous beings.

The Eternals carried out experiments on earth over the years and these resulted in the Eternals supernatural powers like flight, superhuman strength, teleportation, energy blasts from their hands and eyes, telekinesis, force field generation but decided to use their powers to protect the earth against the evil-entities like deviants.

Other iconic Marvel characters like members of the Avengers, Asgardians, Kree, Skrulls have also crossed paths with Eternals in the comics as they moved to other planets to prevent destruction on Earth.
