Marvel Studios’ Moon Knight | Official Trailer | Disney+
The next Disney Plus - Marvel series dropped it's first full trailer last night during the Monday Night Football game - Moon Knight. MK was always a darker character complicated with dissociative identity disorder. In the trailer we see Oscar Issacs as Steven Grant working at a London Museum specifically with a Egyptian exhibit. He's having issues dealing with reality and caller on a hidden phone calls him Marc.
We also see Ethan Hawk playing Athur Harrow who in one comic episode showed up as a researcher doing bad things to people. It looks in the trailer that Harrow here might be the leader in the Cult of Khonchu. Khonchu, in the Marvel Universe is the Egyptian god of vengeance who gives Moon Knight his powers, but there has always been some subtle speculation. Is Khonchu real or another aspect of Moon Knight's fractured psyche.
Moon Knight drops it's first episode for Disney Plus on March 30th.
Creator: Doug Moench (characters)
Stars: Oscar Isaac, Ethan Hawke, Gaspard Ulliel

When watching the trailer keep an eye on the reflections...
The MCU looks like it's leaning into the supernatural with Moon Knight. We've also been promised a Werewolf By Night Halloween Special. There is also The Black Knight's Dane Whitman in the MCU movie, The Eternals, end credit scene being addressed by an off screen vampire hunter, Blade. I almost forgot about the WandaVision spin off, Agatha: House of Harkness.
I was more pleased with the Eternals end credit scene than I was with the movie.
As for your question in 2.1, I was surprised to see the lovemaking scene in Eternals. Tough to really call it that, but certainly a little more risqué than I expected from an MCU offering. But, the thought entered my mind. Are they testing the waters for more mature content or depictions? I certainly wouldn't mind some darker themed offerings.
I didn't think too much of The Eternals either. I'm hoping we get a good Hellraiser and maybe a Midnight Sons run at some point. There are rumors, but for now they are only rumors.
Yes.
I saw the trailer during a football game the other day. I felt like it was giving me a headache. They made the story look depressing.
It did look very well made though, its hard to distinguish tv quality from movie quality anymore. TV shows used to be noticeably more low budget than theatrical films. That is no longer the case.
Well the main character isn't completely sane AND given powers by a god of vengeance. How dark will a Disney + show go though?
good question
