Kumail Nanjiani opens up about his potential MCU future as Eternals' Kingo. 'I'd love to come back and do stuff, but I genuinely have no idea.'
Eternals star Kumail Nanjiani addresses the unclear future of his fan-favorite Marvel Cinematic Universe character, Kingo. Released last year, Eternals saw Chloé Zhao make her MCU directorial debut and introduced audiences to the titular race of immortal beings who serve as protectors of planet Earth.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY While the story of Eternals takes place across 7,000 years, the film focuses mainly on the modern day, whereby the heroes have disbanded and are now living "normal human" lives on Earth. Nanjiani stars as Kingo, a charismatic Bollywood star who is never without his trusted valet, Karun.
I'm completely in the dark. I have no idea what's going on. Truly no idea what's going on. I genuinely don't know when or if Kingo is coming back to the MCU. I really have no idea. I'm just really excited about the direction they're going. The new people they've cast are really good.
Where Could The Eternals Return in the MCU Naturally, the most likely place that audiences may expect to see the Eternals return is in an Eternals 2, though few details have been confirmed about the status of an Eternals sequel outside some very loose confirmation from actor Patton Oswalt. However, there are certainly a handful of ways these characters could appear throughout the MCU’s Phase 5 in the meantime.
While Nanjiani's comments do not, unfortunately, shed any further light on Kingo's future, nor the future of the Eternals as a whole group, it's likely that, even if he was aware, Nanjiani would be unable to divulge any information at this time. With the MCU's Phase 5 likely to open up a number of entry points for the Eternals to integrate into the franchise's main storylines, it remains entirely unclear just what Marvel have in store for these powerful characters.
