— from Marvel Studios, you can see director Chloe Zhao fighting to cut this industrial-strength spectacle down to human size. Created by comic book seer Jack Kirby, the Eternals first swooped onto the page in 1976 (“When Gods Walk the Earth!”) and have been resurrected a few times since. To that end, Marvel brought in Zhao (“Nomadland”) to start the engine with a cast culled from across the entertainment world. Written by Zhao with several others, “Eternals” follows the Marvel house style visually and narratively. “Eternals” also benefits from Zhao’s feel for natural landscapes and her love for wide-open spaces.
