2024-11-29
Marvel Studios' Moon Knight made its debut on Disney+ in 2022. However, it faced the challenge of being overshadowed during a busy year for the MCU. Despite not being perfect, the series received a mostly positive response, but the character has since gone into hiding. Lead star Oscar Isaac, during press for Moon Knight, confirmed on multiple occasions that he had only signed up for a single season. This means that if the story of Marc Spector/Steven Grant/Jake Lockley is to continue, a new deal will need to be negotiated.
Potential Returns in Avengers Movies and Midnight Suns
According to insider @MyTimeToShineH, the current plan is for Moon Knight to make a comeback in the next Avengers movies, such as Doomsday and Secret Wars, as well as in the long-rumoured Midnight Suns movie. Had Kang remained the big bad of the Multiverse Saga, Moon Knight would likely have had a one-on-one confrontation with the villain's Rama-Tut Variant. Now, with the Earth's Mightiest Heroes set to reassemble, the role that Moon Knight will play remains a mystery.Regarding Midnight Suns, it is expected that Blade will lead directly into this team-up. While there is no definite word on who else will appear, contenders like Ghost Rider, Black Knight, Agatha Harkness, Man-Thing, Werewolf By Night, and Elsa Bloodstone are all likely to be part of the ensemble.Nothing is confirmed at this point, but Marvel Studios would be making a mistake to let Isaac and this character slip away in the coming years. As Oscar Isaac previously said, "I thought there was an interesting opportunity with Midnight Sons. There are such interesting characters in there, and now that we've set the groundwork with learning who Marc, Steven, Jake are, it could be an exciting opportunity to see him as part of a team and what that dynamic would be." The actor further teased, "So I think that would be exciting. I definitely hope there's some room to explore that possibility."The Story of Steven Grant and Marc Spector
