The Marvel Comics adaptation of Eternals will rule the weekend box office. Previews start tonight on its way to a $80 million debut. Fandango reports advance ticket sales already reached $13 million.
Angelina Jolie, Kumail Nanjiani, Salma Hayek, Gemma Chan and Richard Madden star. A showbiz insider said, (quote) “Eternals offers a new MCU mythology. It feels separate from every Marvel movie and takes the brand in a refreshing new direction.”
Counter-programming includes Kristen Stewart in the starring role as Princess Diana. The bio-pic is called Spencer, which was Lady Di’s maiden name. Kristen Stewart has earned high praise from film critics, who believe she’s ripe for an Academy Award nomination. (Deadline)
