Eternals And What's Making Us Happy

<em>Eternals,</em> the latest film set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, is a sweeping saga about ten immortal aliens with super-powers. The cast includes Angelina Jolie, Kumail Nanjiani, Salma Hayek, Gemma Chan, Brian Tyree Henry, and Richard Madden. The film is directed by Chloé Zhao, the indie director behind small, intimate films like the Oscar-winning <em>Nomadland</em>. <em>Eternals </em>is unlike anything she's done before, but it's also unlike anything Marvel's done before.
