If you remember one of the climactic scenes of Eternals, after the team finishes with Timaut, preventing the extinction of the Earth, Sersi turns Sprite into a human, something that she asked herself to know what it was like to be an inhabitant of the earth. .
With the deaths of Ajak and Gilgamesh on his shoulders, Ikaris says goodbye to the team and travels to the sun, without knowing his destiny, which has been confirmed, Ikaris died.
In an interview with CBR, Kaz Firpo, writer of Eternals, confirmed that Ikaris decided to commit suicide by traveling towards the sun.
“It was always like this, (Ikaris) can’t bear to face his family after what he’s done, what he realizes… It’s like saying, ‘I can’t serve the Eternals. If I cannot serve the Celestials, and I cannot be with my family, then I choose this third option ‘, which – for him – really is oblivion. So yeah it’s dead”.
Ikaris and his charge of conscience
Firpo pointed out that Ikaris’s actions in serving the Celestials and turning his back on his own was just a time bomb to send him into exile again.
“I don’t think Ikaris doesn’t even think he’s wrong. I think he regrets a lot. He is very sorry. I think he regrets the way he lived his entire life on this planet, and that is a great burden. ” to go, “he explained. “So really, that act is basically saying, ‘I made a mistake, but I can’t face my family and I can’t go on living.’“.
