Movies that feel likeEternals (2021)
If you loved Eternals, the closest films we have are The Fantastic 4: First Steps (2025), Captain Marvel (2019) and Superman Returns (2006). All three share Eternals' cerebral and kinetic feel, which is what we rank on before quality.
Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is Thunderbolts* (2025).

If Eternals hit the spot, these will too

A found-family of heroes facing a threat of planetary scale
The difference: Sunnier retro-future optimism over ancient melancholy

Cosmic-scale Marvel with a hero untangling a buried past
The difference: A breezier origin romp — none of Eternals' mournful sweep

Common ground in both: saving the world and superhero

Damaged misfits pulled together into an unlikely team
The difference: Street-level scale — no millennia-spanning mythology

A long-buried past forcing an estranged family back together
The difference: Earthbound spy scale — no gods, no deep time

Both are built on the same subject: superpowers

God-tier beings assembling reluctantly against extinction
The difference: A famously patchwork cut — tone lurches scene to scene

A universe-sized threat met by heroes far out of their depth
The difference: Green-screen quantum sprawl — the stakes feel weightless

The same preoccupation in both: superhero

One thread runs through both: superpowers
The difference: Reviewed even better

Both keep coming back to the same thing: alien

Marvel treating its world-building with genuine mythic seriousness
The difference: One nation's story — political and tight, not cosmic
