The Eternals – Thena, Ajak, Gilgamesh, Ikaris, Phastos, Sprite, Kingo, Sersi, Makkari and Druig – have helped mankind in technological and different methods and presumably stood by their non-interference coverage by famines, epidemics, genocides and two world wars; why ought to they’ve engaged with Thanos – himself a lapsed Everlasting – as he snapped away half of all life within the universe? “Till now” appears to discuss with the Avengers disassembling – Iron Man and Captain America are each gone albeit in numerous methods.
In the direction of the tip, Sprite (Lia McHugh) asks the gathered Eternals: “Now that Captain Rogers and Iron Man are each gone, who do you suppose’s gonna lead the Avengers?” making it clear that the assembly was held put up the occasions of Avengers: Endgame, wherein Captain America (performed by Chris Evans) assembled nearly all of Earth’s superheroes to cease Thanos.
