Oscar Isaac is headed back into the world of Marvel with the upcoming Disney+ series “Moon Knight,” which is being developed by Jeremy Slater (“The Exorcist”).
Mohamed Diab (Clash) is on board as director and showrunner, and The Hollywood Reporter brings us the exciting word this week that Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead (Resolution, Spring, V/H/S: Viral, The Endless, Synchronic) will also direct “several episodes”!
Moon Knight was created by Doug Moench and Don Perlin, introduced in Werewolf by Night #32 (August 1975). THR describes the Marvel character as “an ex-Marine turned mercenary whose multiple alter egos allow him to better fight crime.”
Moon Knight has to date never appeared in the world of live-action, and the Disney+ series is reportedly set to pave the way for the character to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Moon Knight has recently been voiced on TV by Diedrich Bader (Ultimate Spider-Man vs. The Sinister Six), Gideon Emery (“Avengers Assemble”) and Peter Giles (“Spider-Man”)
