Eternals: Who is Starfox, Harry Styles' Character Eros?
To start, he is the brother of Thanos. That, in itself, makes him an Eternal as well, being the son of A’lars and Sui-San. He has the reputation of being a “carefree charmer” and that makes Harry Styles as the perfect one to fit in the shoes of Eros.
In the arrival of Eros, it is in the post-credits scene wherein Thena, Druig, and Makkari are in the Eternals ship and they are in their mission of looking for their counterparts in the places where other emergences are about to happen with the Eternals being created to ensure that the birth of the Celestials will happen.
They encountered Pip the Troll who introduced Eros as "the defeater of Black Roger, Prince of Titan and Thanos' brother," and that he is someone who could help them. Eros is a third-generation Eternal. Being the son of A’lars makes him and his brother Thanos the cousin of Thena, daughter of Zuras.

In the comics, Starfox is another Eternal who has an extremely different personality than that of his brother, Thanos. He is a carefree adventurer and cannot remain in one place for too long. He has the abilities of an Eternal and his character trait is that he could control minds. Starfox became an Avenger also.
He also looks like an Eternal unlike that of Thanos who is purple who has Deviant Syndrome where those Eternals from Titan were affected by it making them like Deviants, explaining why he acts like that as well. It has been confirmed that he possesses the syndrome giving him heightened abilities and some difference in the physical form from other Eternals.
