Kumail Nanjiani talks about getting into his Kingo suit for 'Eternals'

Being a superhero in an MCU film more often than not will require you to slip into a suit of some kind, but remember to put your pants on the right way.

Eternals star Kumail Nanjiani spoke to Seth Meyers on Late Night about putting on his suit as Kingo, and it's a journey.

"You put it on for the first time and you stand up a little bit straighter, you feel cool," he told Meyers. "Even though it is pretty comfortable, it's a bunch of pieces. People have to help you, you can't just get into it. So like, there's a crime, get your wardrobe team to show up. It's gonna take us 10 to 12 minutes."

"So if they call you and say, 'Hey, there's a crime,' what are you telling them? Like, 45 minutes minimum?" asks Meyers.

"I mean, depends. How's Uber doing, right? Uber's been really slow, my guy can't fly. Once he gets there he can shoot stuff from his hands, but you've got to take him to the location," said Nanjiani.

The Marvel star also talked about the fact that the Kingo suit has its limitations. "You can't really go to the bathroom once you put it on. So in the morning I would put it on and if I was wearing it all day I would not have water, not have coffee, be careful, right? And then a couple of weeks I've been shooting in the costume and my buddy Brian Tyree Henry...he was drinking coffee in his suit and I was like, 'How do you deal with the bathroom piece?' And he said, 'There's a zipper.' And that's when I found out I'd been putting the pants on backwards.

"It's my first time being a superhero. I just got here."

Eternals opens in cinemas Nov. 5.
