Here’s when Marvel’s ‘Eternals’ takes place in the MCU timeline

Spider-Man: No Way Home might be the most talked-about Marvel movie right now, but there’s another MCU movie coming out this year that deserves at least a similar amount of buzz. That’s Eternals, which should hit theaters on November 5th, assuming Marvel sticks with the current release plans. The final trailer for the highly ambitious project already answered some of our biggest questions about the film. We know the Eternals did not intervene in any of the challenges the human race had to face, Avengers history included. They witnessed Infinity War and Endgame events and did nothing to stop them because that’s not in their job description.

The Eternals will choose to protect the humans they’ve been observing for millennia, as a bigger threat is looming. Interestingly, the events in Endgame acted as a massive catalyst for what’s about to happen. And thanks to a new interview with Marvel execs, we know precisely when this cataclysmic threat is supposed to happen relative to Endgame.
