Hollywood star Salma Hayek is happy that she got to fulfil her wish of playing a superhero with upcoming movie “The Eternals”.
In the Marvel Studios film, the Mexican-American actor features alongside the likes of Angelina Jolie, Richard Madden, Kit Harington, Gemma Chan, Kumail Nanjiani, Brian Tyree Henry, Lauren Ridloff, Lia McHugh, Don Lee and Barry Keoghan. In an interview with Total Film, Hayek described the titular Eternals as a gang of “misfits”, except for Jolie.
“At 53, finally! I can be a superhero. I play Ajak, who is the leader of the superheroes and all of them are people you would never have imagined. Except for Angelina… She was born to be a superhero,” the actor said. “The rest of us (Eternals) are like misfits, and we’re all superheroes, and I get to be the leader. That sounds really appropriate! Yes, why not? Let’s go! It just made me feel like, ‘Maybe they’re doing something different.’ And they are,’ she added. (PTI)
