It had an ensemble cast including Gemma Chan, Richard Madden, Kumail Nanjiani, Lia McHugh, Brian Tyree Henry, Lauren Ridloff, Barry Keoghan, Don Lee, Kit Harington, Salma Hayek, and Angelina Jolie. But despite the star power and Chloe Zhao, the film was met with negative reviews and is one of the lowest-earning MCU movies. Famous pop icon Harry Styles also made his MCU debut with this one as Eros. The future of that franchise is uncertain, but Salma had great fun doing the movie.
Salma Hayek had an emotional moment after seeing herself in the superhero costume. For the uninitiated, the Desperado star played the role of Ajak, the wise and spiritual leader of the Eternals, able to heal and serve as the bridge between the Eternals and the Celestials. Although the character was a male one in the comics, the makers changed it into a woman, and Hayek was amazing in the part.
