AceShowbiz - The all-star cast of Marvel's "Eternals" bonded by celebrating Halloween and Christmas together before COVID shut the set down in 2020.
Angelina Jolie hosted a Halloween party and castmate Salma Hayek got everyone in the Christmas spirit while they were all shooting in the Canary Islands between 2019 and 2020.
"It was a pre-COVID celebration. It was really fun," Lia McHugh tells Variety, revealing she dressed up as an angel for the Halloween party, Gemma Chan doubled up as Uma Thurman's "Pulp Fiction" character, and Richard Madden went as a skeleton, while Lauren Ridloff and Brian Tyree Henry won best costume prizes for their "Midsommar" looks, and hostess Angelina came dressed as a giraffe.
Salma then hosted the cast and crew for a festive get-together, which featured an artisans bazaar set up by her and Jolie, where everyone could buy some Christmas gifts.
"We were so busy nobody could go shopping so we got local artists to bring their things and sell homemade things and handmade things. It was so lovely. They were there the whole day," Salma says.
The stars recently reunited at the movie premiere in Los Angeles but, unfortunately, Angelina Jolie, Salma Hayek, Gemma Chan, and Lauren Ridloff as well as director Chloe Zhao needed to enter quarantine afterwards due to Covid-19 exposure.
Jolie quickly bounced back as she attended red carpet at another screening in London. She was joined by her children and daughter Shiloh stole attention as she stepped out in an altered version of the black-and-white Dior dress her mum wore for a "Maleficent: Mistress of Evil" press conference in 2019.
