Clearly no longer concerned about spoilers, which is rather surprising given their usual attitude towards them, Marvelhas now unveiled a poster depicting a major cameo from the latest MCU outing, Eternals. If you wish to remain in the dark look away now as there as SPOILERS incoming, as the newest character poster the cosmic adventure reveals Dunkirk Harry Styles as Eros AKA Starfox, the brother of Thanos.
“Meet the Royal Prince of Titan, brother of Thanos, the Knave of Hearts, defeater of Black Roger, the great adventurer, Starfox,” the caption alongside the poster reads. “Check out Eros’ brand new character poster and see @Harry_Styles in Marvel Studios’ #Eternals only in theaters NOW!” While the movie was only released a few weeks ago, Marvel is clearly so excited to have the former boyband member join the MCU that they don’t mind giving it away on a poster.

To be fair to the studio, Starfox’s post-credits scene cameo is one of the worst kept secrets surrounding the Marvel Cinematic Universe at present, with many now well aware that Eros pays a visit to the Eternals come the movie’s end. Born on Titian, Eros serves as the superhero Starfox, and possesses the ability to psychically control other people’s emotions.
Harry Styles has since opened up about the joy of joining the Marvel franchise saying, “I’m only in right at the very end. But who didn’t grow up wanting to be a superhero, you know?” The popstar and actor went on to praise working with Eternals director Chloe Zhao adding, “It was a great experience and I’m so grateful to have gotten to work with Chloé.”
Zhao meanwhile revealed that she has had her eye on Styles for Eros for some time now, “Harry as Eros was very much a package deal for me,” the filmmaker told Deadline. “I kept tabs on Harry since Dunkirk, I thought he was very interesting,” she continued, revealing that, for her, Styles was the only choice. “After meeting him I realized he is that character – the same way I cast the rest of my cast. There’s so much of Eros in him. For me, if he says yes, and Kevin says yes, then it’s a go. And I’m very happy they both did.”
Eternals picks up following the events of 2019’s comic book blockbuster event Avengers: Endgame, and introduces the Eternals, a species of immortal aliens from a distant planet who arrived on earth thousands of years ago and have been protecting humans since the dawn of time. Created by the Celestials, a race of powerful extraterrestrial cosmic beings who have secretly lived on Earth for over 7000 years, the Eternals must reunite to protect humanity from their evil counterparts, the Deviants.
Written and directed by Oscar-winning filmmaker Chloé Zhao, with Patrick Burleigh also contributing to the screenplay, Eternals stars an epic ensemble cast alongside Angelina Jolie and Don Lee, including Richard Madden as Ikaris, Kumail Nanjiani as Kingo, Lauren Ridloff as Makkari, Brian Tyree Henry as Phastos, and Salma Hayek as Ajak.
