JEOPARDY fans slammed champion Mattea Roach and the new contestants today for ALL getting the “most obvious question” wrong.
Host Ken Jennings left all three players stumped with a question about Marvel’s The Eternals.
From the category “the cast of the movie”, Ken delivered the question: “2021: Gemma Chan and Salma Hayek deal with a pressing planetary issue.”
All three were silent while Mattea squinted and bit her lip as she tried to think of the answer, which was worth $2,000.
47-year-old Ken then revealed: “They are two of The Eternals.”
Despite not getting this question right, the Canadian Jeopardy! champ still finished in first place with $17,281.

However, some fans on Twitter were in disbelief that no contestants guessed the movie question correctly.
One wrote: “$2,000 would’ve been mine if I were on Jeopardy! this evening, purely for being obsessed with Marvel, and none of the contestants knew the answer.”
Another raged in all capitals: “NOBODY GOT THE ETERNALS QUESTION RIGHT ON JEOPARDY.”
A third chimed in: “I know The Eternals flopped because it was just a $2000 answer on Jeopardy!.”
