Kevin Feige addresses Moon Knight and Eternals’ return in MCU

The Marvel Studios head recently spoke at Marvel Studios Burbank headquarters, where he addressed the much-awaited return of characters like Moon Knight and the Eternals.

According to Variety, the reporters present at the event further asked whether characters like Clea (Charlize Theron), Starfox (Harry Styles), Hercules (Brett Goldstein), and Mephisto (Sacha Baron Cohen) will also return.

While Kevin Feige didn’t take the names, he stated, “I don’t know that it’s any of the specific ones you just named, but yes, that is part of the plan: Characters we’ve introduced post-‘Endgame’ will pop up again in some of the upcoming movies and beyond. The fun of the comics is anyone popping up anywhere.”

Moon Knight, played by Oscar Isaac, is one of the most loved characters post-Avengers: Endgame among fans. He debuted in the Marvel Cinematic Universe through the Disney+ series Moon Knight, which came out in March 2022. On the other hand, the Eternals debuted in the universe through Chloé Zhao’s eponymous movie in November 2021.

At the event, Feige even unveiled how Avengers: Secret Wars will pave the way for new beginnings in the MCU. This also includes recasting some of the X-Men characters, who are returning in Doomsday and Secret Wars.

The veteran producer said, “We’re utilizing that [story] not just to round out the stories we’ve been telling post-‘Endgame,’ just as importantly — and you can look at the ‘Secret Wars’ comics for where that takes you — it very, very much sets us up for the future. ‘Endgame,’ literally, was about endings. ‘Secret Wars’ is about is about beginnings.” Moreover, Kevin Feige referred to it as a reset of the “singular timeline.” (via Variety)
