Marvel Studios has announced that The Eternals will undergo a name change, with the Marvel Cinematic Universe film now titled "Eternals."
A reason for Eternals dropping "The" from the title was not given by Walt Disney Studios, though the updated name does match the title of Marvel's relaunch of an Eternals ongoing comic book series.
Eternals is keeping its updated release date of Feb. 12, 2021, which was changed back in April due to theaters around the world being closed due to coronavirus (COVID-19). With six months until Eternals lands in theaters, the news of an official title change may herald the release of the film's first trailer soon.
Directed by Chloé Zhao with a screenplay by Matthew and Ryan Firpo, Eternals stars Richard Madden as Ikaris, Kumail Nanjiani as Kingo, Lauren Ridloff as Makkari, Brian Tyree Henry as Phastos, Salma Hayek as Ajak, Lia McHugh as Sprite, Don Lee as Gilgamesh, Angelina Jolie as Thena, Barry Keoghan as Druig, Gemma Chan as Sersi and Kit Harington as Dane Whitman, aka the Black Knight. The film will premiere in theaters on Feb. 12, 2021.
