Photos of what could be sets for Marvel Studios’ The Eternals may offer fans a glimpse at a key location from the comics.
During Marvel Studios’ 2019 San Diego Comic-Con presentation in Hall H, the company officially announced The Eternals as part of its Phase 4 line-up. Now, Bespin Bulletin has posted photos of what were initially believed to be sets for Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker reshoots but are now thought to be for Marvel Studios’ The Eternals.
The sets in question are being built at Pinewood Studios in London and feature an in-progress statue placed in front what appear to be steps leading to an ancient ruin. In the comics, The Eternals run opened with Doctor Damian and his daughter Margo traveling to an ancient Aztec temple and discovering the ruin is actually the tomb of the Space Gods.
Check out the post below to see the possible set photos for The Eternals.

In the comics, the Eternals are a fictional evolutionary offshoot of humanity who possess superpowers and longer lifespans than normal humans. Created by the Celestials over a million years ago, the superpowered beings were the result of genetic experiments that led to the creation of two divergent races: The Eternals and The Deviants.
Often defending Earth from their monstrous counterparts, the Eternals became embroiled in a civil war amongst themselves over whether or not they should conquer the other races. One faction was led by Kronos and the other by his warlike brother named Uranos, with Kronos’ side ultimately winning the conflict while Uranos and his followers were exiled.
Directed by Chloé Zhao from a script written by Matthew K. Firpo & Ryan Firpo, The Eternals stars Angelina Jolie, Richard Madden, Kumail Nanjiani, Lauren Ridloff, Brian Tyree Henry, Salma Hayek, Lia McHugh, and Don Lee.
