Kumail Nanjiani expected his time in the Marvel Cinematic Universe to lead to many more jobs.
The actor portrayed Kingo in the 2021 Chloé Zhao film Eternals, for which he underwent a major physical transformation. Nanjiani spoke about his experience after the film was released during a recent appearance on the Working It Out podcast.
The star-studded cast of Eternals included Angelina Jolie, Salma Hayek, Kit Harington, Barry Keoghan, Gemma Chan, Richard Madden and Brian Tyree Henry.
"There were a few too many people in Eternals, if the reviews are to be believed," Nanjiani said. "I loved the movie. I'm very proud of the movie."
Disney is the parent company of ABC News and Marvel.
