Moon Knight is just over one week away from arriving on Disney+, and Marvel Studios just dropped another clip from the series. In it, a bemused Steven Grant is told to suit up by May Calamawy's character, but he has no idea what that means! Where's Marc Spector when you need him?
The main focus of this sneak peek is Ethan Hawke's Arthur Harrow; the mysterious villain uses his cane to unleash a powerful energy blast, opening a hole in the ground and summoning...something! We're not sure what the monster is, but would bet on it being the jackal-like creature seen in the trailers.
While Moon Knight has typically been portrayed as a Batman-like vigilante in recent years, the Marvel Cinematic Universe is clearly embracing the hero's earlier adventures and ties to Ancient Egypt.
The series 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 mystery among the powerful gods of Egypt.
Moon Knight stars Oscar Isaac, Ethan Hawke and May Calamawy. Mohamed Diab and the team of Justin Benson & Aaron Moorhead directed the episodes (those George Clooney rumours were incorrect). Jeremy Slater is the head writer, and Kevin Feige, Louis D’Esposito, Victoria Alonso, Brad Winderbaum, Mohamed Diab, Jeremy Slater and Oscar Isaac are the executive producers.
Moon Knight premieres on Disney+ on March 30.
