If Thanos possesses a deviant gene, why didn’t the Eternals intervene to help the Avengers against the Mad Titan? The answer might be a broader plan by the Celestials for all lifeforms on Earth! Erik Voss explains Thanos’ actual genetic history, everything we know from the MCU and the Marvel Comics, to see how the upcoming Eternals film might reveal Thanos’ actions as part of a sanctioned plan by the Celestials to introduce mutants in the MCU!

So, unless it's changed on-screen, the book Thanos: Titan Consumed actually tells us how he got the scepter. Then again it might not even be canon so...

MCU Thanos comic says he got the mind stone from the “ lore speaker “ on some isolated planet and almost got his body took over till gamora and nebula killed the lore keeper

[@sinteleon]

Honestly though, considering Ego's seed would likely still be dormant on Earth (and other planets, but those are not quite as important to the story here), could it also have some influence on the Emergence?

[@spfdff]

So perhaps this further explains why Kang the conqueror wasn’t upset when the Avengers re-snapped everyone back into existence. They were SUPPOSE to create the event which causes a surge that triggers the events that follow. The celestials got the ball rolling, when they gave Thanos the mind stone

[@308719236]

How so

[@andrewshandle]

Given that the scale of time the Celestials work on, I would imagine that Thanos did all that he did between Celestial Hosts and had zero knowledge that they existed beyond just rumors and legends, because clearly he was allowed to do whatever he wanted in the Galaxy/Universe.

[@Paztacos]

He's been to knowhere he knows they existed at one point. He doesn't know where they are or what they are doing.

[@livingwater25]

well anyone thats been to knowhere knows they exist, anyone that has seen an infinity stone with their own eyes know they exist and anyone that has some sort of magic definitely knows they exist, they've been mentioned or hinted at so many times after thor 2 and the gotg movies

@West West you clearly don’t know the mcu rarely tries to be comic accurate lol

[@suzanneharrison1463]

A gene variant is a permanent change in the DNA sequence that makes up a gene. This type of genetic change used to be known as a gene mutation, but because changes in DNA do not always cause disease, it is thought that gene variant (love that med research uses this term) is a more accurate term. Thanos simply had a slight genetic change. I've often thought the same of Prime Loki. His biological father Laufey left him to die because he was small qnd weak, but other than the blue hue to his skin he looked nothing like a Frost Giant. And... serious improvement IMHO.

[@edgabrillo1909]

Thanos is I literally an eternal. He is what happens when eternals decide to get directly involved in mortal affairs......... (Eternal , Thanos, sees that world's are overpopulated. He sees all the suffering that happens when worlds are overpopulated. So he preemptively decides to speed up the process by culling the population of the entire universe himself.) Which leads Credence to the fact that their whole thing is to not get involved.

The celestials may have given thanos the mind stone for him to destroy half of life, so the avengers can bring them back, in turn producing the necessary energy for a celestial emergency from earth because the infinity stones were snapped three times on earth, that's surely more than on anywhere else

[@Andresguzmanerazo]

Cool

[@CaptainPikeachu]

Just because the Red Skull name drops Thanos’ father as A’Lars doesn’t necessarily mean that this makes Thanos an Eternal. We don’t even know if A’Lars is an Eternal. If anything, in the trailers, we see all the Eternals being made, not “born” or with parents, so there’s nothing that says or confirms that Thena is related to Thanos at all or that A’Lars is a brother of Thena’s father or that Thena even has a father. A’Lars could literally just be a Titan, it would be that simple to just say Thanos is only a Titan too and not an Eternal or Deviant, because why not just make them separate entities and streamline the story instead making it more complicated or make the Eternals’ story be undermined by having to explain a bunch of loopholes.

Black Widow didn't confirm the Usra Major was a mutant, it's something the actor said on Instagram or something.
