As MCU fans continue to wait for the imminent debut of Phase 4 on Disney+ next month and in theaters in May 2021, new looks at more than a handful of upcoming projects have been teased almost every single day. While the only official material to be released has been the debut trailer for WandaVision, behind-the-scenes looks of other major projects like the untitled Spider-Man 3 and Disney+'s The Falcon and the Winter Soldier have helped keep up the major levels of hype always provided by Marvel Studios.
2021's third Phase 4 movie is set to be Marvel's Eternals, which has already built up considerable buzz even though it will not release until nearly a year from now. This movie will bring one of the largest new casts of characters to the franchise, showcasing nearly a dozen new heroes with some amazing powers that include immortality. These are also set to be some of the most stylish-looking main characters in the franchise thanks to their unique costumes, two of which have just been teased in a brand new social media leak.
NEWS
A new leak on Twitter from user @MajinAnakin has revealed mock-up image of Barry Keoghan's Druig and Salma Hayek's Ajak from Marvel Studios' Eternals, set to release in November 2021. While their faces have few distinguishable features, their costumes are shown in more detail than almost any image promoting the new movie thus far.
Druig is in a red-and-black suit with some intricate designs on both the front and arms, while Ajak is adorned in a blue-and-yellow patterned top with a headpiece in the same colors.
The image can be seen in full in the Twitter post below along with the caption "New visual from Eternals" translated from French:
Nouveau visuel de Eternals 😳

WHAT THIS MEANS
This new image doesn't reveal any new character details about either Ajak or Druig, but it does tease some of the most visually exciting costumes the MCU has seen in quite some time. While the franchise is known for its incredible CGI work on many costumes from major heroes like Iron Man and Doctor Strange, Eternals should give Marvel Studios the chance to make some amazingly intricate real-life costumes for this star-studded cast to show off, even though their powers will certainly be realized in post-production.
Salma Hayek's Ajak will take the position as leader of the Eternals, and alongside Barry Keoghan's Druig and the rest of the team, this immortal race of Earth-based heroes are set to bring an exhilarating new story to the MCU as the third new franchise in Phase 4. After Black Widow and Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings earlier in the year, this movie is set to bring more new characters to life than nearly any previous installment in the franchise, and it will be exciting to see both how the group has lived amongst the people of Earth over thousands of years and what they will have to tackle in their first solo adventure.
Eternals is currently in post-production and preparing to release in theaters on November 5, 2021.
