Eternals: New video shows more desi wedding scenes featuring Angelina Jolie, Richard Madden and others

Marvel Studios have released a new featurette for Eternals ahead of the film’s release on November 5. The new video focusses on director Chloe Zhao’s vision for the film and how she wanted to combine the film’s epic scale with intimate stories of its characters.

The video also includes clips from behind the scenes as the cast and crew shot for the movie amid beautiful landscapes. Talking about the movie, the Oscar-winner said, “I came into the film as a filmmaker who wants to tell a story, but also a fan. So my vision of the film is how can we capture something so epic and intimate at the same time and how to have these moments coexist in the film.”

Chloe’s actors in the movie–Angelina Jolie, Kumail Nanjiani, Gemma Chan, Brain Tree Henry and Lauren Ridloff–speak about working with her and what she brings to the franchise. About why she chose to film the movie in real landscapes, she said, “You want to see the character in relationship with the world behind them.” She gave examples of scenes featuring Sersi and Kingo.
