2021-11-03 2

Richard Madden has said he is proud to be the first Scottish superhero in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, with his work in Eternals.

The 35-year-old, born in Renfrewshire, plays the all-powerful Ikaris — capable of flight and firing energy beams from his eyes — in Chloe Zhao's movie, and was able to use his natural accent for the part.

Eternals is in IMAX and cinemas from 5 November.
