Harry Styles returns as Eros in MCU

MCU 2021 film Eternals had one of the wildest reveals when Harry Styles appeared as the character Eros also known as Starfox in the movie’s post-credits scene.

Eternals also starred Gemma Chan, Richard Madden, Kumail Nanjiani, Lia McHugh, and Angelina Jolie.

One of the most interesting facts about the Watermelon Sugar artist’s character is that he is the brother of supervillain Thanos. In the brief clip, he is joined by a small, furry CGI character named Pip The Troll (voiced by Patton Oswalt).

Josh Horowitz for MTV New asked Kevin Feige about the former One Direction star’s future in the Marvel universe during this year’s San Diego Comic-Con.
