Disney+ has released a new Moon Knight featurette for its next Marvel Studios series, starring Oscar Isaac as the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s newest superhero. It is currently slated to make its debut on Wednesday, March 30.
Moon Knight follows Steven Grant, a mild-mannered gift-shop employee, who becomes plagued with blackouts and memories of another life. Steven discovers he has dissociative identity disorder and shares a body with mercenary Marc Spector. As Steven/Marc’s enemies converge upon them, they must navigate their complex identities while thrust into a deadly mystery among the powerful gods of Egypt.
Marvel Studios’ upcoming Disney+ series Moon Knight will feature the introduction of Golden Globe winner Oscar Isaac in the titular role of Marc Spector, which marks the iconic superhero’s live-action debut and is expected to be featured in future MCU films. Joining Isaac are Oscar nominee Ethan Hawke as Arthur Harrow, Oscar winner F. Murray Abraham as the voice of Khonshu, May Calamawy, and the late Gaspard Ulliel as Midnight Man.
Moon Knight is written and developed by head writer and executive producer Jeremy Slater (The Umbrella Academy), based on the character created by Doug Moench and Don Perlin. The episodes are directed by Egyptian filmmaker Mohamed Diab and Synchronic duo Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead.
