Oscar Isaac has been cast as Moon Knight in the Disney+ ‘MOON KNIGHT’ series.

On the one hand, I think he'll do great. :tgrin:

On the other, I was really hoping for Daniel Radcliffe. :tsad:

If all goes well, Oscar Issac

It's about time Moon Knight caught some traction. I've got several Moon Knight books, usually the runs with the high profile artists, but I never got around to picking up a copy of Werewolf By Night. Probably not going to happen anytime soon now!

Like I said on the other thread, he's a great actor (when he's not slumming in terrible X-Men or Star Wars movies) but I was really hoping for Daniel Radcliffe.

Still, I'm sure he'll be badass in the role.

Great choice.

For anyone interested, Warren Ellis did a killer Moon Knight run a few years back that is only six issues long and self contained. Highly recommended.

Huh. That looks like it could be pretty good. And I had no idea Ethan Hawke was in this.

Kinda let down by the trailer but way too early to judge the show. I just wish they’d stop constantly cutting the tension and the scene where MK is looking for his contact on the ground has me feeling that won’t be happening, even for Moon Knight. The tone of the show could still surprise me though.
I will be there day one to see.

Gaspard Ullie, who plays Midnight Man, has been killed in a skiing accident.

A little bit bummed to learn it’s only six episodes! It’ll be interesting to see how they flesh out a good storyline in only six episodes? Fingers crossed

Just like Falcon & the Winter Soldier. Just like Loki. Just like Hawkeye.

I'm still used to the MCU projects being 2-3 hour films, so even if the budget isn't necessarily the same, I still feel spoiled getting 4-6 hours of these Disney+ Marvel shows over a couple months.

True but those all sucked and they were based on established characters from many films.

At least we get to see Radcliffe as Weird Al Yankovic later this year

I can't believe how much I'm looking forward to that.

Wandavision was 8 I do believe.

WV had nine.

WandaVision also had the shortest episode runtimes though, too, didn't it? So I guess it kinda evened out

decent debut episode kinda Trippy. Can't wait to see where it goes

It would be really good if they didn’t constantly undercut the tension, as they do in most of their films. Lots of would-be intense moments cut short. Acting is well done. Everything is, really. You can tell the show is being held back by the MCU formula.

Dodgy accent, check, but the mannerisms, attitude and casual swearing thrown in are a lot more believable to me as someone who is actually British heh. So colour me impressed with the opening episode, bit of a Venom voice in head vibe, let's see where it goes.

I like this well enough, even if I had to restart the episode like 5 times because at first I was texting too much and kept missing sh!t

Khonshu asking if he really threw the gun got a laugh out of me :lol:

What is it with Marvel movies and doing jokey stuff in elevators with civilians? Over and over again, jesus.

Finished 4. Is it just me, or is the show ending up being a little... not so great? It LOOKS great, it's shot really well and every part so far feels like a movie, well acted... but over the last 2 episodes I'm finding myself largely tuning out. I'm not even sure I completely followed this latest episode.

It's like there is a disconnect between the scripts and their execution. Something isn't jiving for me. Is it that it's a little bit... boring? It's definitely moving along but nothing is grabbing me. The action is pretty sparing and most of it is like a less interesting, less risqué version of American Gods.

I'm also not sure I'm liking that lady sidekick/love interest. I don't know if she is working out the way they intended, and she's being given very bad dialogue to say.

I lost interest in it, was kinda boring.:ohwell:

I thought the last episode was pretty good, I definitely thought it was over when that whole sequence at the insane asylum started up.

"Four hours in and only about 4 minutes of Moon Knight so far" I read. Yeah, I think that's part of it, too.

Moon Knight is one of those characters that, like Daredevil, I'd have a massive interest and collection of had I not done the deep dive into a few other characters first.

I'm looking forward to watching this one, but at this point, like Picard, I'm just going to power watch it once it wraps up.

Yeah, the end of episode 4 was the first time my interest perked up, since episode 1. There are a lot of great ingredients here but something isn’t coming together. I think there is just something inherently wrong with the formula of thee MCU shows. They get so dull and stretched out in the middle.

Final episode will be the shortest finale of all Marvel TV shows:

At least it isn't 9 with only enough plot for about 4 like WandaVision.

So the lady character becomes a superhero and saves the day, basically.

Naturally, you thought Moon Knight was gonna actually be about Moon Knight?

Idk why they even bothered. Just make a show about Mockingbird or Tigra or whatever, or make Moon Knight a woman. Idk.

It's like they hate baking shows about men but are forced to cause the characters are male so they make them begrudgingly cause they know a show about Kate Bishop on her own is a hard sell .

Oscar Isaac is "not so open to working with Disney" anymore.

"But if they can kinda figure it out and, you know, not succumb to fascism, that would be great."

What in the world is he talking about?
