Eternals Leaked Merch Confirms Kingo's Secret Identity


We're finally learning more about the new Marvel Cinematic Universe characters who will be introduced in Eternals. For instance, it looks like Kumail Nanjiani's Kingo has decided to take on an interesting secret identity so he could live comfortably among humans.

The new information comes from Redwolf, the Indian clothing company that has been producing the Eternals' tie-in merchandise. Interestingly, the character description for Kingo confirms he isn't exactly hiding from the world.

"Kingo is the Eternal with the power to project cosmic energy projectiles with his hands. Over the centuries, he has become enamored with the idea of fame. In the present day, he's a famous Bollywood star who must leave his life of wealth and celebrity to help the team repel the new Deviant threat," the description reads.

We're loving the idea that Kingo is enjoying life on Earth so much that he decided to become a celebrity. After all, a centuries-old immortal can't keep himself hidden for so long so why not hide in the open? So could this mean that we'll see Nanjiani's character acting and dancing to show off his talents? We'll find out when Eternals finally hits theaters next year.

Eternals is directed by Chloe Zhao and will also star Richard Madden as Ikaris, Angelina Jolie as Thena, Gemma Chan as Sersi, Brian Tyree Henry as Phastos, Salma Hayek as Ajak, Lia McHugh as Sprite, Barry Keoghan as Druig, and Don Lee as Gilgamesh. The movie is currently scheduled for release on November 5, 2021.
