WASHINGTON: Actor and singer Harry Styles has opened up about his surprise appearance in the recently released Marvel franchise film ‘Eternals’.
According to People magazine, Styles was featured on the cover of a magazine in which he spoke about making it into the Marvel film as Thanos’ brother Eros. “I’m only in right at the very end. But who didn’t grow up wanting to be a superhero, you know? It was a great experience and I’m so grateful to have gotten to work with [director] Chloe [Zhao],” Styles told the publication.
He also spoke about continuing along the acting path in girlfriend Olivia Wilde’s upcoming film ‘Don’t Worry Darling’ and in ‘My Policeman’. “I like to challenge myself and do something different and movies are definitely where I feel most out of my comfort zone,” he said.
‘Eternals’ director Zhao spoke with Deadline about the movie and her decision to cast the Grammy winner, whom she said she had on her mind for years. “Harry as Eros was very much a package deal for me,” Zhao said. Styles appears in the post-credits scene of the latest Marvel installment with Pip the Troll, voiced by Patton Oswalt.
