Moon Knight looks set to be one of the most exciting new additions to the Marvel Cinematic Universe during Phase 4. While we don't know what the future holds in store for the unhinged superhero beyond his upcoming limited series on Disney+, it's hard to imagine him being anything other than a major player moving forward, especially if Marvel Studios is looking to embrace the supernatural.
Following that horror-inspired clip earlier today, a new magazine cover has been released that showcases two different sides to this unhinged superhero: Moon Knight and Mr. Knight. How these personas will differ remains to be seen, but that's certainly an interesting looking weapon the latter is wielding.
Marvel Studios looks to be leaning heavily into Egyptian mythology with this series, and that could be a game-changer. Don't forget, in the comic books, Moon God Khonshu once crossed paths with Rama-Tut, a Kang Variant.
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 (there's no mention of George Clooney). 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.
