Beware when you watch Eternals. Makkari will steal your heart.

The Hollywood Reporter,"I didn’t audition for the role of Makkari. I was called for a sit-down meeting with Chloé and [producer] Nate Moore about a new untitled Marvel project."to me and tried to capture the story and the people that make up the Eternals. The conversation shifted to Makkari, who Makkari was in the comics and would be in the film.

"The opportunity to represent the deaf community in a big budget movie was quite an emotional experience for Ridloff, who admitted that she,"It felt like it was a lifetime of waiting. I didn’t really see anyone like myself ever represented on the screen."Well, her character in the movie has touched the hearts of viewers too.Many confessed on social media about the bond they formed with her character.

I love when people complain about a movie having representation (cause guess what more people exist outside of straight cis men). can’t wait to see this movie when I have the chance.

The film is shit. Don't bother. 2 hour and 37 minutes of a snorefest.

Dude the episode of the walking dead she was in this season was f**king fantastic! One of the best episodes in my opinion.

She is

This has to be the most politically correct movie they are shoving down our throats..... Can't we just have a normal superhero movie?!?!?

Ok and I don’t care GAY VAMPS RISE UP‼️‼️‼️‼️🤮🤮🧛🏿‍♀️🧛🏿‍♀️🧛🏿‍♀️🧛🏿‍♀️

The movie was trash but I don't want to see any Lauren Ridloff slander. She is so sweet and is doing a great job in everything she does.

Makkari maybe deaf, but she still got the speed that even quicksilver would be jealous of.

I don’t. Care about deaf people

No one cares

This is absolutely what happened - mischievous and bubbly, Makkari was my favorite character.

Lol, marvel is desperately trying to convince people to see this movie any way possible.

Is the character deaf in the comics or is this more minority pleasing PC BS?

Stealing our hearts, on- a n d off-screen. 👑 LaurenRidloff HearingReview

Oh that person from the walking dead. I thought we already made a big deal out of her when she started on that show.

Hey MarvelStudios How is Makkari immortal and deaf in TheEternals with salma kayak as a healer? Eternals

How is an Enternal deaf?

Don't you have to be a living creature to be deaf? She is a robot created by a giant space god.

With Eternals, Lauren Ridloff has just created history by becoming the first deaf actor ever to portray a superhero in a Marvel feature film.

Why is a perfect being like an eternal deaf though?
