Gemma Chan recently reflected on many things, including her time onEternals. Furthermore, sheteased the future of her character Sersi in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
InEternals, Sersi is known for having the power of transmutation. She can touch anything and turn it into whatever she wants. At various points in the film, she transmutes the ground into an open field of ice, turns a falling bus into rose petals, and she even creates water as well as plant life on top of dried land.

During an interview with W Magazine,Chan was asked if Sersi would returnin a future Marvel Studios project. In response, Chan replied said, “Yes… Marvel owns us for life [Laughs].” Fortunately, Chan has grown attached to her character, with the actor adding, “In Eternals, she starts out shy and then discovers her power as a leader. That was fun.”
While Chan’s comments on being owned by Marvel were made in jest, it’s true that signing on for an MCU project means that talent will be likely be in it for the long run. Multiple movies, sequels, spin-offs, and television shows are often a part ofthe Marvel Studios contract. It’s what makes the universe so special, and what makes a connected world between all the MCU projects possible.
Chan, along withthe entire cast ofEternals, did a phenomenal job of bringing their characters to life in this movie. Everybody brought out the personality and quirks that set their characters apart from each other. Seeing as though the movie ended on a very big cliffhanger, fans shouldn’t be surprised if they see these characters return in the future.
Regardless ofwhere fans stand onEternals' performance, the movie is definitely pivotal to a lot of things for Marvel Studios moving forward. It connects a lot of pieces that will move the Marvel Cinematic Universe towards the cosmos.
