The film will be released in November, six months from now. Ridloff is the first deaf superhero in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Ridloff said in an interview with Alexis Kashar of RoseBYANDER Jewelry that the sign for “Eternals” is like “forever,” but using your index finger without switching to the “Y” handshape. She said the sign would be easier for people all over the world to sign.
