In doing so, Zhao mentioned that her work on Eternals helped her prepare for things like world-building and fleshing out a movie that doesn\u2019t take place in the real world, as her movies prior to Eternals all did. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cEternals prepared me for Hamnet because it\u2019s world-building. Before that, I had only done films that existed in the real world. I also learned what to do and not to do\u2014what\u2019s realistic and what isn\u2019t,\u201d Zhao said. <\/p>\n<p>Zhao also mentioned that Eternals\u2019 budget, which she describes as \u201can unlimited amount of money and resources,\u201d could end up being \u201cdangerous\u201d in terms of losing some meaning about what it takes to make a movie. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"6526\" height=\"3679\" class=\"gb-image gb-image-c22007aa\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Disney-Standalone-Logo-colored-AMR.png\" alt=\"\" title=\"Disney-Standalone-Logo-colored-AMR\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>Disney+ Has the Best Bundle in the Business <\/p>\n<p class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-e5b3cdc9 gb-headline-text\">Sign-up today for access to Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+<\/p>\n<p class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-21c31e3e gb-headline-text\">Sign-ups support Superhero Hype<br \/>via affiliate commission <\/p>\n<p>\u201cEternals had, like, an unlimited amount of money and resources,\u201d said Zhao. \u201cAnd here we have one street corner that we can afford, to [stand in for] Stratford\u2026.

Because we only have that street corner [in Hamnet], suddenly everything has meaning.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Eternals premiered in 2021, and received mostly mixed reviews. Although the film did gross more than $400 million, it became generally perceived as a failure for Marvel Studios. Currently, there are no plans for a sequel to Eternals, according to Kevin Feige. <\/p>\n<p>(Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanityfair.com\/hollywood\/story\/hamnet-chloe-zhao-jessie-buckley-paul-mescal-exclusive\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Vanity Fair<\/a>) <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Chloe Zhao is preparing to release her next movie, but recently reflected on making 2021\u2019s Eternals, and what&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":17678,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[263],"tags":[15770,1887,18,117,15289,19,17,1889,1890,1891,1892,327],"class_list":{"0":"post-17677","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-movies","8":"tag-chloe-zhao","9":"tag-disney","10":"tag-eire","11":"tag-entertainment","12":"tag-eternals","13":"tag-ie","14":"tag-ireland","15":"tag-marvel","16":"tag-marvel-cinematic-universe","17":"tag-marvel-studios","18":"tag-movie-news","19":"tag-movies"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17677","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17677"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17677\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/17678"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17677"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17677"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17677"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
