ETERNALS star Richard Madden speaks on his Marvel Cinematic Universe debut and bonding with the entire team!

Marvel Studios’ Eternals

"Eternals" follows a group of heroes from beyond the stars who had protected the Earth since the dawn of man. When monstrous creatures called the Deviants, long thought lost to history, mysteriously return, the Eternals are forced to reunite in order to defend humanity once again. Marvel Studios' "Eternals" stars Gemma Chan, Richard Madden, Kumail Nanjiani, Lia McHugh, Brian Tyree Henry, Lauren Ridloff, Barry Keoghan, Don Lee with Kit Harington, with Salma Hayek and Academy Award®-winner Angelina Jolie.

Joining the MCU for the very first time is actor Richard Madden, after a successful outing in Game Of Thrones. He plays Ikaris who is a fighter, and he has supreme power and incredible strength. His cosmic energy allows him to fly and blast powerful beams from his eyes. "I play Ikaris, one of the ten Eternals, and Ikaris can shoot lasers from his eyes. He can fly, and he has super strength. At the beginning of the film, I think what's most important to my character is the same thing that's most important to all Eternals, which is just protecting intelligent life on Earth. " he says.

When asked about their bond and audience expectations Richard adds, "In terms of bonding with some of my cast members, luckily, I'm very close with Gemma Chan. We've been friends for over 10 years. That's not quite the thousands of years that we need for these characters, but we've known each other for years before the film started, so that really helps in terms of building up a trust and a rapport with someone. I suppose I'm most excited for people to be able to get up close with a lot of these characters. We tried to create this huge world where you also get to be alone with these characters in moments of silence and thought. Hopefully, we're going to be able to get inside some of these Eternals' minds as much as we get to see them saving the world."
