Superhero wannabes don’t have to depend on a spider bite or exposure to some otherworldly material to become a heroic figure.
That’s because Marvel’s upcoming Moon Knight superhero origin story has opened up a new possibility: leaning into your insomnia and embracing the chaos that comes with it.
At least that is what Oscar Isaac did, playing Marc Spector who transforms into the Moon Knight.
Stitched up in a “snazzy white suit and a whole lot of violence”, Isaac’s Spector becomes the living will of the Egyptian god Khonshu, per Gizmodo:
In the comics when Moon Knight was introduced back in 1975, we meet Spector as a former marine turned mercenary with dissociative identity disorder, who finds himself gravely wounded on a mission.
Taken to recover from his wounds at a temple dedicated to Khonshu, Spector finds himself not only miraculously saved from death, but reborn as an avatar of the moon god, dedicated to a life of protecting the weak from evil, no matter the cost.
The trailer gives us a first full look at the Moon Knight costume in action as well as a sneak peek of Ethan Hawke as the antagonist:
Marvel has some big streaming plans for phase four of the MCU this year, with tons of new content on its way.
Besides Moon Knight, which will be on Disney+ from March 30, fans get to look forward to She-Hulk, Ms. Marvel, Secret Invasion, The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special, and even a possible Halloween-themed, Werewolf by Night-inspired special.
Just Marvel-ous.
