“The impact Eternals will have on MCU will be nothing less than redefining the cinematic universe entirely,” says Marvel chief Kevin Feige in a new featurette titled “In The Beginning”. Eternals is set to introduce a new team of superheroes who’ve existed thousands of years before the Avengers came in, just that they kept away from human conflicts. So why do they rise now?

According to the new video, Eternals explores the very creation of MCU itself, and deals with the world in the aftermath of Avengers. The clip shows footage we’ve already seen, along with several behind-the-scenes moments.

Angelina Jolie, who portrays Thena, the cousin of Thanos, calls Eternals “an epic global film” because of the scale of production. Kumail Nanjiani thinks all the actors look and sound different in the movie. The featurette also shows how the team is, in fact, a “dysfunctional family unit.”
