Both talks of the town, with Eternals reviews dwindling down and the casting of Will Poulter as Adam Warlock in the upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy something that shocked many, Barry Keogran who stars as Druig hopes to see his good friend in the MCU soon, in a movie.
In the recent premiere of the Eternals, Will Poulter arrived in the event and Barry Keoghan approached him and in a talk with ScreenRant, Keoghan shared their interaction, “I was like, "Welcome, bro. You don't mind if I photo-bomb?" He said, "Oh, Barry!" I was like, "What are you doing here?"”
He even joked how Poulter keeps growing over the years, “Will's a good friend. I've spent some time with Will on holidays and he's a lovely lad and he just keeps getting taller every time. I keep getting smaller, but I don't know, that man must be seven foot now. Probably next time, he'll be eight foot.”
When asked who would Keoghan want Druig to meet, he said, “It would be Adam Warlock, now that you say it. I was hoping that there'd be one more interview that would ask that, and there it is. I would love to cross paths and again, being a big Will Poulter fan and my friend, it just, yeah. There's so much room there to have fun and explore as well.

It is expected that the arrival of Adam Warlock would be huge in the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 especially after his tease in the second movie’s post-credits. As for the Eternals, it has received mixed reception over the last week and it continues to stand proud with the diversification, representation, and inclusion that comes with the movie.
Barry Keoghan plays Druig, the ominous Eternal, who does not believe that violence could resolve problems, that there can be other ways. He seems to have an amorous connection with Makkari, looking how sweet they are in various trailers.
Druig is known for his telepathy and matter transmutation which could prove devastating. He is called as “The Manipulator,” also known as the “Druig of Nightmares,” and he wields a flame that could hurt even invulnerable Eternals.
The Eternals are as follows: Ikaris (Richard Madden) is the Prime Eternal, leader of the team; Thena (Angelina Jolie), squaring off as the other leader of the group; Ajak (Salma Hayek), a Trojan War veteran; Gilgamesh (Don Lee/ Dong-seok Ma), also known as the Forgotten One; and Sersi (Gemma Chan), an enchantress and conjurer.
Other members of the Eternals are Makkari (Lauren Ridloff), the deaf speedster; Sprite (Lia McHugh), an Eternal trapped in the body of an 11-year-old; Kingo Sunen (Kumail Nanjiani), the skilled swordsman; Phastos (Brian Tyree Henry), the blacksmith; and Druig (Barry Keoghan), an ominous Eternal.
