Variety brings word that Golden Globe winner Richard Madden (Bodyguard, Game of Thrones) is in talks to join Marvel’s The Eternals alongside Oscar winner Angelina Jolie, Oscar nominee Kumail Nanjiani, and Dong-seok Ma.
Madden, who will next star in the Elton John docudrama fantasy Rocketman alongside Taron Egerton, will be playing Ikaris, a member of The Eternals.
The effects-heavy Eternals will likely take that November release date with something smaller scale like Black Widow or Shang-Chi potentially in line for the May 2020 release.
Jolie will star as Sersi, a member of the seemingly immortal Eternals who (in the source material) made a life for herself in New York City.
