[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”27435″ img_size=”900×500″ alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]Angelina Jolie is playing Thena in the upcoming movie The Eternals. The kick-off for Phase Four in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the Eternals is much like the Guardians of the Galaxy, in the sense that this movie will be introducing these characters to non-comic book readers out there. The Eternals needs to make people fall in love with them, which isn’t hard to do when you look at the cast list.
According to Jolie, she is training hard. Her training apparently includes everything from “sword fighting to ballet.”
Jolie explained:
“She’s a warrior. I’m going to have to work very hard to give the Marvel Cinematic Universe the Thena they deserve.”
We would expect nothing less from Jolie. In general, it seems like every Marvel star goes through rigorous training to get in shape. But, this is Angelina Jolie. She’s a powerhouse. So, I’m interested in seeing her as Thena. In the comics, Thena is the leader of the Eternals. According to the panel at SDCC, Salma Hayek’s Ajak will be the leader. In the comics, the role of the leader is sometimes challenged by fellow Eternal Ikaris. Richard Madden will be playing this role.
The Eternals will hit theaters on November 6, 2020.
