Guys, this is NOT a drill. It’s currently being reported that Harry Styles has officially joined
the MCU and we have zero chill about it. Let’s get into everything we know.
To say Harry Styles is absolutely thriving right now would be an understatement.
Between his singing career, star power, and acting chops, this guy does it all. So much so,
that he’s even managed to land himself a role in the MCU. I know, right?!
Now, before we get into what exactly this role is, we do want to issue a MAJOR spoiler alert,
as we’re about to discuss some piping hot tea from the new ‘Eternals’ movie,
which just had it’s red carpet premiere Monday night in Los Angeles.
And may I also add, that this spoiler and tea isn’t something we have taken the liberty to
spill ourselves and spoil anything - it's tea that someone else has spilled
that actually was trending on Twitter - and we are doing what we do best and that is letting
you know. So from this point forward of the story, enter at your own risk.
OK, now moving on. The highly anticipated Eternals, features a star studded cast,
including names like Angelina Jolie,
Kumail Nanjiani, Gemma Chan, Richard Madden and Kit Harrington to name a few.
And following the world premiere last night,
a big spoiler was revealed by senior film writer Matt Donnelly from Variety,
who casually took to twitter following the screening to drop a casting BOMBSHELL about
something that at this stage had been floating around the internet as a rumor. Until now….
In his tweet, Matt revealed, “Big reveal from #TheEternals
premiere -- Harry Styles has joined the MCU as Eros, brother of Thanos.”
Ummm hold on a second, did he really just casually make
that reveal for the world via a tweet like this??
And it seems Matt wasn’t the only reporter from Variety spilling the tea, Mark Malkin, senior
culture and events editor also tweeted “When Harry Styles shows up in the MCU. Audience squealed.”
Alright my head is about to explode right now.
This casting news definitely came as a HUGE shock, considering Harry Styles wasn’t even
in attendance at the premiere. In fact, while this bombshell was being dropped,
Harry was busy dropping some Watermelon Sugar in Cleveland, OH for his Love On Tour.
And if you’re thinking, wait, hold on, this still might all be some kind of hoax?
Well we just checked Harry’s IMDB Page and….
What do you know, there listed amongst Harry’s credits is “Eros in Eternals”...
So I guess that makes this tea official.
Now, in case you don’t know much about this new MCU character,
Eros is apparently Thanos’ younger sibling, and is described as a “fun-loving,
carefree womanizer” who has the ability to stimulate the pleasure centers of the brain…
Which, I gotta say is A+ casting. I think this role was literally made for Harry to play.
And fans agree. Like this one who tweeted,
“Eros is the brother of thanos but is the complete opposite, he’s nice,
carings and Can physically can peoples emotions. Basically Harry is play Harry”
Others just shared their pure excitement, like this twitter user, who wrote in all caps
“HARRY STYLES HAS JOINED THE MCU AS THANOS’ BROTHER:
STARFOX IN MARVEL ETERNALS EXTRA SCENE” along with this Spongebob clip.
And one fan jokingly compared the two brothers looks, tweeting, “if harry styles was my brother
and i looked like this i would’ve murdered half the universe too i don’t blame thanos”
Speaking of which, you guys. Harry might actually look like his beautiful self for the role.
Yep, Eros may not get the major CGI makeover his big bro Thanos,
played by Josh Brolin received, as Eros seems to appear more human-like.
Very excited to see what that looks like on November 5th, the official premiere date
for the film. So reserve your tickets for harry’s major debut because this is one flick not to miss!
