- Sersi (Gemma Chan) Much of Eternals' story centers on Sersi, who has the ability to manipulate insentient matter. "She can change things, and she's sort of helped humanity along the way, in little ways," Gemma Chan explains.
- Ikaris (Richard Madden) Madden's Ikaris is one of the most powerful Eternals, with the ability to fly and shoot beams of light from his eyes. He has a special connection with Sersi, but they don't necessarily see eye to eye on their approach toward humanity.
- Kingo (Kumail Nanjiani) Most of the other Eternals have tried to stay under the radar through the centuries, but Kumail Nanjiani's Kingo has done the opposite, making a living as a Bollywood star.
- Sprite (Lia McHugh) Lia McHugh's Sprite may look like a preteen, but like the other Eternals, she's actually thousands of years old. "I sort of related to her in the way that I've lived my whole life because I look younger than I am," the 15-year-old McHugh says.

Jolie is obviously the most recognizable name in this cast, and her character Thena might just be the most recognizable of the bunch. Most of that recognition comes from the similar-sounding "Athena", which has probably confused as many people in the real world as it did in the ancient fictional world of Eternals. The title immortals have been arou...
Over 20,000 years old by the time we meet him, Ikaris is known for a couple of things in the fictionalized "real-world" mythology: Having guided an ark to safety during the "Great Cataclysm" (the sinking of Atlantis due to an attack by the undersea civilization of Deviants known as Lemuria), Ikaris was thought by the surviving humans to be the dove...
Kingo Sunen is a sort of Renaissance man, an accomplished swordsman who studied the ways of the samurai for years in Japan, only to employ them in the action movie business in the modern era. Choosing to use an epic sword (which can cut through anything) forged by a fellow Eternal, Kingo rarely uses his superpowers though he still possesses them. H...
If Makkari sounds like Mercury to you, there's a good reason for that! The character's history includes a retcon that sees the 1940 introduction of Mercury in "Red Raven Comics #1" and the 1941 "Captain America Comics #1" introduction of Hurricane as two instances of the Eternal. Confused yet? It gets worse! Originally (and often) a man throughout ...
Often confused with the Greek god Hephaestus, Phastos is the main tech/equipment guy for the Eternals. Kingo's sword, Ikaris' flight suit, and more gear comes courtesy of Phastos; his own hammer also comes with matter-altering abilities that go above and beyond even those of the innate powers of the Eternals. Phastos has those powers as well but of...
Another Polar Eternal like Ikaris, Ajak was traditionally a man who was well-versed in archaeology. In addition to fighting alongside other Eternals against Kro's Deviants in Babylon millennia ago, Ajak also had a presence in Central America; this led to the Native Americans worshiping him as a flying god like Quetzacoatl or Tecumotzin. And despite...
Traditionally appearing as a young boy, Sprite is the "Loki" or "Puck" of the Eternals, a trickster and jokester whose childish behavior hasn't changed a bit over the centuries. Despite the deadly nature of these pranks when it comes to the frail humans, and despite punishments handed out because of it, Sprite remains mischievous. In Neil Gaiman an...
Also known as Hero and The Forgotten One, Gilgamesh is basically your go-to iconic hero of myth and legend. Hercules, Samson, Beowulf, Atlas ... all the same Eternal. But his dalliances in the human world earned him an exile from the then-Prime Eternal Zuras. It was Sprite who brought Gilgamesh back into the fold during the Fourth Host to help the ...
