Moon Knight - SPOILERS

[DeviousQuail]

I think the Eternals might get another movie, but more importantly they just need to appear in some other team up movies before that happens. Get them connected to some of the other cosmic heroes like the Guardians and Thor, Captain Marvel, or whatever Fury is doing right now. They'll also try to connect them to whatever Black Knight gets up to. I wouldn't be surprised if we see Sprite alongside Black Knight and Blade.

quote from January 2022:
Eternals in and of itself was created as a standalone film…as producer Nate Moore told the Toronto Sun in October 2021, “If you just watch Eternals, you can enjoy Eternals, you can understand Eternals and you’re good to go.”

By that same token, it’s totally possible that Eternals won’t have a full roster of follow-up films, either. In Moore’s October interview, he stressed that Eternals 2 is “not something that is a must-have.”

Is Eternals 2 on the Way? New Report Sheds Some Light.

Despite the original film's mixed reception, an Eternals sequel is totally possible. Here's what we know so far, according to cast and crew interviews.

Yup, read that. I'm in Toronto so have also read the original story, that is quoted by TheMarySue

I got the sense that Marc was lying to Layla about not knowing what happened to her dad. Is the implication that Marc killed her father?

I also get the sense that Layla has come to admire/prefer Steven, perhaps because of their shared interests. I can see her hoping that Steven becomes the dominant personality permanently, but that raises some interesting questions about being married to someone with dissociative identity disorder.

How will Marc free Khonshu without his special powers?

I thought it odd that the pyramid could be hollow inside, knowing what we know about its construction. Undoubtedly there’s a magical/metaphysical aspect to it.

It’s interesting that the third, secret personality is even more brutal and violent than Marc.

Possibly. I think it is more probable that he feels responsibility, even if he didn't do the deed.

Spoiler: In the comics...

Mercenary Marc Spector is on a job, helping a warlord in the Sudan put down a rebellion. One of his fellow mercs starts attacking civilians, including an archeologist, who is killed. Marc gets the archeologist's daughter out of the way, and then takes on the merc... and loses. Locals take Marc down into the tomb the archeologist had discovered, where Marc then dies, and is ressurected by Khonshu to be Moon Knight, the Left Fist of Khonshu.

I expect that Layla is analogous to the daughter in that origin story - in which case Marc doesn't want to talk about what happened, because he failed to save her father, and feels guilt over that.

Apart from one dead link, I haven't been able to find anything confirming a sequel. I have my doubts that there will be one, given the reception the first received.

Well there is the "Eternals will return..." on-screen message after the last end credits scene in the movie. It doesn't necessarily mean a sequel; they could show up elsewhere throughout Phase 4 and 5 (or beyond).

How will Marc free Khonshu without his special powers?

Freeing him could be as simple as smashing the statuette. Getting to it will be the tricky part.

Yes, that is what I'm wondering. How will he get into that temple or whatever it is inside the pyramid? Obviously I'll just have to wait and see!

 

[Morrus]

Well, I can definitely say that I find Steven much more interesting to watch than Marc.

Since Harrow didn't smash it whilst he had the chance, this seems likely.

Getting to it will be the tricky part.

Tomb raiding will probably require Steven's skillset.

and Layla's skillset when it comes to the tomb raiding. She won't get lost or overwhelmed by it all like Steven will (at least based upon his comments in the mirror when the avatars met).
