Angelina Jolie looked like a golden goddess in a blonde wig and body-clinging suit as she was seen for the first time on set of Marvel's The Eternals.The exclusive first look at the 44-year-old American actress came after she and Richard Madden were reportedly forced to stop filming after an unexploded bomb was found near its Spanish set.She did not seem to let the scare bother her one bit as she looked absolutely fantastic while springing into action as her character Thena for the comic book flick on set Tuesday.Angelina was joined on the beach set by Atlanta's Brian Tyree Henry and Crazy Rich Asians actress Gemma Chan. Angelina covered her signature raven-colored locks with a long, platinum blonde wig.She looked every bit the superhero as she donned a clinging, metallic gold bodysuit with matching boots. The Eternals are an immortal alien race created by the Celestials who are to protect humanity from their evil counterparts called the Deviants.They are known for their superhuman strength, stamina, speed, durability, agility and reflexes. Angelina's character Thena was born in the city of Olympia in ancient Greece originally with the name Azura but her father Zuras had her name changed to resemble that of Zeus' daughter Athena to seal the treaty between the Olympian gods and the Eternals.
Aside from the Eternals main superhuman abilities, the warrior also can manipulate cosmic energy to augment her life force which grants her virtual invulnerability and immortality. She also has total mental control over her physical form.She can also project cosmic energy from her eyes or hands in the form of heat, light, and concussive force. The 37-year-old Henry portrays Phastos - seen in his signature purple outfit - who can project cosmic energy in the form of beams from his eyes and hands.Chan, 36, will be playing Sersi - whose color of choice is green - as her abilities include superhuman strength and durability as well as molecular and atomic manipulation.One battle all three thespians seemingly had to endure was with the windy conditions as they could often be seen shielding their eyes from sand as the gusts picked up.Not seen on set was Richard Madden who was one of the stars forced to evacuate alongside Jolie after a bomb threat just the day before.
