Yesterday's episode of Moon Knight, which was quite appropriately titled "Asylum," finally revealed the true story behind Marc Spector's origin and his DID. The hero's background is a tragic one, and what Marvel Studios delivered over the course of 45 minutes was surprisingly hard-hitting.
Talking to Entertainment Weekly, director Mohamed Diab shared high praise for Oscar Isaac's stellar work. "His performance is unbelievable," he says. "The difference between Marc and Steven is so huge, yet they're so similar. He did a fantastic job developing those characters, and when he inhabited the two, they're completely different. He made them his own."
Diab also dropped some hints about next week's finale, suggesting that they've found a way to ensure we'll walk away happy. "I hope it's a satisfying wrap-up to our story. I feel it is. There are some surprises. I think the audience deserves a big action sequence, but it's more than that. It has some twists and turns, and I really feel like it's a satisfying ending to our journey."
There's a lot to address in that final episode, and with Moon Knight billed as a limited series, we don't have a season 2 to look forward to that will tackle any lingering questions or plot points.
We'll see, but for now, Marvel Studios has also shared some spoilery stills from "Asylum" that highlight a number of key moments. Those include Taweret, Marc and Steven's journey, "Dr. Harrow," and the moment this former mercenary agreed to become Khonshu's Fist of Vengeance in the MCU.
