We’re just a few weeks away from the highly anticipated debut of Marvel’s Moon Knight on Disney+ and today we got some exciting new looks at the series. Marvel shared a featurette and three new posters for Moon Knight.
- The three new Moon Knight posters show us three different versions of the titular character.
- The first shows Oscar Isaac as Steven Grant, the seemingly ordinary man whose life is being taken over moon god and a dark secret.
- The next poster shows Moon Knight in his somewhat traditional superhero costume. Remember, Moony wears white so the bad guys can see him coming. He’s far from your typical hero.
- And finally, the third poster shows the character in his Mr. Knight costume.
- As you can see in all three posters, the other two versions of the character flank the one who takes the center, signifying the split personalties of this troubled hero.
- Marvel also shared a featurette, which takes us behind the scenes and shares some insight from Isaac, director Mohamed Diab, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige and others.
- We also get our first real full-body look at Khonshu, the moon god, as he appears to interacting with multiple people.
- You can check out the full featurette below:
