Marvel Studios Moon Knight series that opens on Disney Plus series on March 30 looks very promising. The trailer is out and this is Marvel Cinematic Universe’s 2022 first of the many schedules and the fans are eagerly looking forward.
Marvel in the trailer has introduced their newest super hero Oscar Isaac who plays Marc Spector, an ex-soldier with a severe form of dissociative identity disorder that manifests as totally unique personalities, in “Moon Knight,” which premieres on March 30. Marc’s uneasiness over his mental disorder is exacerbated when he becomes the conduit for the Egyptian moon god Khonshu.
While it has many interesting insights , we find Marc is unable to discover the difference between his normal life and his dreams. He plays with a Rubik’s cube, unable to fall asleep, only to jump out of bed in a panic with his foot chained to his bed — though he seemingly forgets he was the one who restrained himself the night before.
After visiting a museum on ancient Egypt, he sees a vision of Khonshu and later meets Ethan Hawke’s villain, a cult leader who encourages Marc to embrace the darkness within himself. The trailer ends with Marc being enveloped by the Moon Knight costume and a shot of him brutally beating someone up on a bathroom floor.
Marvel’s Moon Knight a series to watch out for in 2022
“Moon Knight” introduces us to a whole new set of characters and a storyline that has no clear initial connection to the MCU. Making his Marvel comics debut in 1975, Moon Knight initially had superpowers based on the phases of the moon, but more recent iterations have kept his abilities mortal, aided by sophisticated gadgetry. That has drawn comics fans to compare the character to the DC Comics superhero Batman.
“Moon Knight” co-stars Hawke and May Calamawy. Jeremy Slater (“The Umbrella Academy”) serves as creator and head writer, with Mohamed Diab (“Eshtebak (Clash)”) and the team of Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead (“Synchronic”) directing.
The show inaugurates Marvel Studios’ second year delivering TV series for Disney Plus alongside its feature films. Also expected in 2022 for the streamer: “She-Hulk,” a legal comedy starring Tatiana Maslany, Mark Ruffalo, Tim Roth, Renée Elise Goldsberry, Josh Segarra and Jameela Jamil; “Ms. Marvel,” a coming-of-age dramedy starring newcomer Iman Vellani in the title role; and Season 2 of the animated series “What If…?”
