Marvel has released the first trailer for the upcoming series, Moon Knight. The show will premiere on Disney+ Hotstar in India on March 30.
In Moon Knight, Oscar Isaac plays Steven Grant, a mild-mannered gift-shop employee, as he becomes troubled by blackouts and memories of another life. Steven discovers he has dissociative identity disorder and shares his mind with Marc Spector, an elite soldier and mercenary who decides to fight crime after he becomes the human avatar of Khonshu, the Egyptian god of the moon.
As Steven/Marc’s enemies come to get them, they must deal with their identities while navigating a deadly mystery involving the powerful gods of Egypt.
Marvel fans are impressed by the trailer and the ‘psychological thriller’ approach of the series. “This looks like it’s gonna be a mind bender for sure,” wrote a fan.” Another wrote, “This is looking incredible, I’m so glad they’re going with a psychological horror rather than the typical formulaic superhero themes which we’re accustomed to. Oscar Isaac is perfect in this role and I’m so exited to see more of him.”
Moon Knight also stars Ethan Hawke and May Calamawy. Mohamed Diab and the duo of Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead have directed the episodes. Jeremy Slater is credited as the head writer, with Kevin Feige, Louis D’Esposito, Victoria Alonso, Brad Winderbaum, Jeremy Slater, Diab and Isaac attached as executive producers.
