late comedian revealed that A’lars and his kinfolk are in reality Eternals , but of a different branch than the ones that will be explored in Marvel ’s upcomingEternalsmovie . However , A’lars could still flirt a function in the picture show . Though A’lars is n’t from the same group , he is connected to the story that explains why many members of their mintage have been on Earth for so long . In the comics , A’lars , his brother Zuras , and Kronos lived on Earth in the city of Titanos chiliad of years ago . When Zuras was choose to be Krono ’s replacement , A’lars resolve to break away from the Eternals and travel to Titan , where he would organize a raw dependency .

A’lars appearing inThe Eternalswould give Marvel a fortune to capitalize on itsAvengers : Infinity Wartease and provide an interesting connection to Thanos ( without actually using him ) .
