Eternals Reveals the Truth About Dinosaurs in New Deleted Scene

Marvel Studios has released a new deleted scene from Eternals ahead of the film’s streaming debut on Disney+ and video on demand. The new “Small Talk” scene sees Sprite (Lia McHugh) visiting the museum and having a conversation with Dane Whitman (Kit Harington). Though the conversation, on its surface, appears to be about dinosaurs (Deviants), Athena (Thena), and the illusions humanity chooses to believe in, it all ultimately comes back to Whitman’s relationship with Sprite’s “aunt,” Sersi. Below, you can watch the deleted scene, which Marvel released via IGN. This scene follows another deleted scene that involves the Avengers and Thanos.
