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.

Nice cover, though still say it's too early for Mr knight.

@Origame - Pretty sure Marvel Studios knows better than any of us on how to tell this story.
Origame
Origame - 3/17/2022, 8:36 PM
@Tonic24k - ...considering they never told a story like this and the comics it's based on had mr knight be a part of his character development that took years to get to...

@Origame - I’m more or less in the same boat as you, but I think it could work if they introduce Mr Knight as just another personality that he has.
Origame
Origame - 3/17/2022, 8:49 PM
@MeAreLegend - I mean, that would work from the perspective of telling the story. But that would be such a huge waste of potential.

@Origame - idk anything about Moon Knight bit could that tuxedo version be used as a Brad Pitt Tyler Durden substitute?
Origame
Origame - 3/17/2022, 9:39 PM
@ElricReturns - sort of in the sense that it's another personality. But not the kind that pushes the character to do the more messed up stuff.

It's actually explained very well in one of his early stories, where it's explained the police are required to arrest moon knight on sight, but Mr knight is so respected by the police that they will consider him an entirely different person from moon knight and openly work with him.

@Origame - maybe that will be the case here too, although it would indeed be told over a shortly period of time.

I wonder if we'll get to see the Jake Lockley personality as well, because if we do then I can see the appearance of Mr. Knight feel like too much.

@Origame - this is their shot at Moon Knight and they have no clue if they’re going to get another shot at it. They probably wanted to introduce it while they have a chance.
Origame
Origame - 3/18/2022, 6:29 AM
@CryinFist - ...it's the mcu. They definitely planned for this character to appear again.

Tonic24k - 3/18/2022, 12:31 PM
@Origame - What happens in the comics is not what happens in the movies. The MCU is original storytelling adapted from the comics; not ever meant to be carbon copies. Your expectations are so one dimensional. Stop finding reasons to complain about everything.
Origame
Origame - 3/18/2022, 2:19 PM
@Tonic24k - dude. My complaint isn't that it isn't a carbon copy. Your view of my complaint is the only thing one dimensional.

A good comparison of Mr knight in the comics is smart hulk. And, guess what, the mcu knew that smart hulk was something to build towards and not rush.
Hell, even the people here who are arguing against me (other than you) understand my complaint and agree to an extent.
CryinFist
CryinFist - 3/20/2022, 1:22 PM
@Origame - if it doesn’t do well we don’t see another solo project. It’s the MCU, they can move on.
Origame
Origame - 3/20/2022, 4:45 PM
@CryinFist - ...they literally haven't so far with any of their franchises. The only exception is hulk, but that's due to rights reasons and they still managed to work him into the avengers and Thor franchise with full arcs and stuff.

Even the eternals, the worst reviewed and one of the lowest performing mcu property, already has the promise of the eternals returning.

@Origame - And without seeing the show you have no idea how this character was written and if it's going to work or not. It's a premature complaint. Stop giving yourself every reason in the world to complain. Good lord...
Origame
Origame - 3/21/2022, 2:27 PM
@Tonic24k - ...it's promotional material. It's meant to get me interested. If I can't have a problem with it then you can't be excited for it by that logic.
Tonic24k
Tonic24k - 3/21/2022, 2:53 PM
@Origame - But you seem to find a way to have a problem with everything. The complainer culture you subscribe to is so obnoxious. And no, my logic doesn't summarize that promotional material cannot yield excitement. My logic would actually assert that if you were getting excited over an assumption, that's the equivalent. Just as how people assumed Mephisto would show up in WandaVision and then became disappointed . So the real problem here is you're assuming how something is going to work in a show you haven't seen yet simply because the comic books did it differently. Otherwise, you have no other precedent to go by.
Origame
Origame - 3/21/2022, 3:13 PM
@Tonic24k - 1) yes it does, if you are then telling me I can't have a problem with it. Your excitement is based on the assumption that the show you're watching has more of what's in the trailer, when everything we've seen can only amount to the first episode and the rest is a bunch of boring conversations.

2) the problem with wandavision isn't that there was no mephisto or quicksilver. It's that what we got was hot garbage that was also weirdly ok with slavery (but only if you're grieving of course).

3) just like you're assuming it will work and trusting the film makers to deliver. Again, same logic. Or should we not also have a problem with the flash starting with Flashpoint? Remember, you haven't seen it so you're just assuming how it's going to work and getting mad at it.

Tonic24k - 3/22/2022, 4:05 PM
@Origame - It's so entirely sad you spend this amount of time justifying your right to complain. You should be thankful we're even getting shows like this with quality production. Yet here you are finding ways to complain. Just appreciate what we're getting dude. Reserve judgement on the shit you're worried about and let the other aspects excite you. You'll be a whole helluva lot happier and so will others here. It gets exhausting coming here wanting to share excitement over these projects and here you always are with some irrational complaint.
Tonic24k
Tonic24k - 3/22/2022, 4:08 PM
@Origame - As for Flash, I have zero interest in that movie and not concerned with it. Which is precisely why you don't see me in those forums whining about it. I choose to spend my time with things that bring me joy.
Origame
Origame - 3/22/2022, 4:43 PM
@Tonic24k - 1) really don't see the point in talking about the production quality. My complaint is story and character based. There's no reason we can't have both.

2) no, I'm going to express my excitement for what excites me and criticize what I'm worried about. You're acting like there's no value in criticism.

3) why do you think I'm not happy? I like discussing how productions can improve.

4) if you seriously are bothered with my complaints, there's a block button.

5) and I'm doing what brings me joy. Discussing upcoming superhero projects, both the good and bad.

@Origame - Be real dude. You literally have a reputation here of being an unreasonable whiner. And every single time it happens, you get clowned on. Self awareness will serve you greatly.

I hope one day you'll learn how to not be the Eeyore in the room.
Origame
Origame - 3/23/2022, 4:55 AM
@Tonic24k - you say this, yet everyone I've been talking to here outside of you have been very reasonable conversations. Where's your self awareness?
Tonic24k
Tonic24k - 3/27/2022, 11:57 AM
@Origame - Lol. Look at your original post and look at my response. Who is the community always siding with? My self awareness is doing just fine. It's you who is incapable of admitting your expressed sentiments are not well received.
Origame
Origame - 3/27/2022, 12:11 PM
@Tonic24k - never said they fully agree with my point but they do understand where I'm coming from and are mostly just expressing possibilities of how it could work or just hope that marvel knows what they're doing. I mean, mearelegend flat out said he's more or less in the same boat as me.

Also, looking forward to the week it's gonna take you to respond back, or the month it'll take you to reply to that captain marvel comment 😉. But again, just block me if you have such a hate boner for me.
Tonic24k
Tonic24k - 3/27/2022, 5:09 PM
@Origame - I don't have a hate boner for you at all. In fact, there's a part of me that respects you. Just wish you'd be more of a fan than a critic.
Origame
Origame - 3/27/2022, 5:25 PM
@Tonic24k - you don't want me to be a fan. You want me to be a fanboy. And the rest of your comments to me shows the exact opposite of respect.
Tonic24k
Tonic24k - 3/27/2022, 5:49 PM
@Origame - You really only know how to be literal when it serves you huh? I said a small part of me...which would mean the majority of me doesn't respect you. Like most everyone here. So back to your self awareness. Nothing you say here is well received. So it's really in your best interest to stop trying to criticize everything. You just continually make yourself look silly and with every post is proof.
Origame
Origame - 3/27/2022, 5:58 PM
@Tonic24k - and apparently you don't know what exact opposite means.

And again, this thread tells the exact opposite that most don't respect me. Only one lacking respect here is you.

And even if most didn't, I don't f@#$ing care. What, I need the approval of a bunch of a$$holes like you? No, I'm expressing my opinion. And f@#$ people like you who can't stand it. You don't like it, then block me and be done with it.

They should dispense with the seperate personalities disorder and just make him a driven vigilante like Batman!
