Disney has guaranteed theatrical exhibitors a 45-day window of exclusivity with Chloe Zhao’s upcoming superhero epic Eternals. The film, which introduces an ancient and powerful race of beings who have been secretly living in the Marvel Universe for thousands of years, is the next installment of the Marvel Cinematic Universe following the record-breaking success of Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. Eternals boasts an all-star cast, but in light of disappointing box office performances by virtually every movie released in the pandemic era, Disney had been holding off on making specific plans public, likely waiting to see the Shang-Chi receipts.
