8) Dane Whitman
Sersi the Eternal’s other Game of Thrones boyfriend made a brief, undistinguished appearance in Eternals until the film’s mid-credits scene. Comic fans knew Dane (Kit Harington), known as the hero the Black Knight in the Marvel comics, was reaching for his family’s cursed Ebony Blade. Another Blade (the Daywalker, specifically, played by Mahershala Ali) stops him before he touches the sword and becomes a superhero doomed to become a bloodthirsty warrior. The combination of characters implies that Dane will be in the upcoming Blade film, but Blade is all about daywalking and killing vampires, not medieval swords and King Arthur. What’s the connection?
