Marvel Studios' Eternals is set to hit cinemas in a couple of weeks and the marketing campaign for the Phase Four film is definitely in full swing. Aside from the promotional material Marvel Studios has been putting out over the last couple of days, toy manufacturers like Hasbro, LEGO, and Funko have been helping in boosting interest in the film and so far, fans are eating them up which no longer comes as a surprise.


Speaking of toys, collectors have grown increasingly pleased with Hasbro's Marvel action figures over the last couple of years all thanks to the toy manufacturer's use of a face-printing technology that allows them to capture the likeness of the actors more. However, as impressive as the technology is, one of the lead stars of Eternals isn't that thrilled with how her action figure turned out to be.

Salma Hayek, who plays Ajak in the film pointed out during a recent appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! how her figure looks nothing like her. The award-winning actress appeared on the show with co-star Kumail Nanjiani and they both made fun of Hayek's toy counterpart that looks "creepy" and has a head similar to E.T's.

Meanwhile, it's looking more and more evident as the days go by that Eternals could very well be Marvel Studios' sleeper hit for this year. And sure, while Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings still currently holds the franchise's biggest box office return for 2021, there's a good chance that Eternals will surpass it and I'm already calling it now, the film will have everyone talking.
Marvel Studios' Eternals will hit cinemas on November 5th.
