It’s been just over two years since a post-credit scene from Eternals revealed Harry Styles and Patton Oswalt had joined the MCU as Starfox and Pip the Troll, respectively. As is often the case with Marvel Studios, the appearance of the two came with the unspoken promise of further adventures which, to date, have yet to occur or even be addressed. Eternals wasn’t especially well-received and between some changes to the inner workings at Marvel Studios and a pair of strikes that have greatly impacted production, there’s hardly been a deluge of news on future projects which has left some fans asking what future, if any, Styles’ character might have.
During the premiere of The Marvels, ET asked Marvel Studios One Above All, Kevin Feige, if he could shed some light on when fans might see Starfox again.
“He’s excited. We’re excited. We will see,” said Feige of Styles. “You introduce a lot of new characters in a lot of movies and a lot of tags. Where do the tag folk reappear? That’s a good question.“
While it’s not the first time Feige has addressed when Styles might reappear, he’s still not giving much of an answer here. As is the case with most of the Eternals, there’s no clear-cut path for Starfox to have further adventures within in the ongoing Multiverse Saga. Many of the character’s common comic book companions are no longer involved in the MCU which means like many characters who have made the jump from page to screen, whatever adventures await Starfox are likely to be original ones. Additionally, it’s very likely that the MCU version will mostly be Starfox in name only as he’ll almost certainly undergo major changes from his troublesome comic book counterpart.
