Moon Knight Episode 2 Trailer Promo, Marvel Studios, Disney+


I found another series that seem so intensive and so promising.  It's Moon Knight, a superhero type stuff from Marvel Studios, and I've just finished watching its first episode on Disney+.
In case you did not know, Moon Knight is an American television miniseries created by Jeremy Slater for the streaming service Disney+, based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name. It is intended to be the sixth television series in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) produced by Marvel Studios, sharing continuity with the films of the franchise. Slater serves as head writer with Mohamed Diab leading the directing team.

Oscar Isaac stars as Marc Spector / Moon Knight, a mercenary who has dissociative identity disorder, with Ethan Hawke and May Calamawy also starring. The series was announced in August 2019, with Slater hired in November. Diab was hired to direct four episodes in October 2020, with directing duo Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead joining in January 2021 to direct the other two. Isaac was confirmed to star at that time, and used different accents to differentiate Spector's various identities. Filming took place from April to October 2021, primarily in Budapest as well as in Jordan, Slovenia, and Atlanta, Georgia.

Moon Knight premiered on March 30, 2022, and is scheduled to run for six episodes until May 4. It is part of Phase Four of the MCU.

I the first episode, we get to see the transformation of a museum worker Steven Grant who occasionally suffers from blackouts and memories of another life. After going to sleep one night, he finds himself waking up in another town, and witnesses a cult meeting led by Arthur Harrow, who demands a scarab Grant unknowingly had in his possession. He escapes and is nearly killed, but is unknowingly saved by a mysterious voice in his head. After waking up in his home and noticing several oddities, Grant realizes that two days have passed since he went to sleep. Upon returning home, Grant finds a hidden phone and keycard in his apartment. He gets a call from a mysterious woman called Layla, who calls him Marc. The next day at work, Grant is confronted by Harrow, who reveals that he is a servant of the goddess Ammit. Later that night, Harrow summons a jackal monster that attacks Grant at the museum. Just as Grant is cornered by the monster, his reflection in the mirror tells Grant to let him take control. Grant agrees, and he begins to transforms into a clothed warrior, who then kills the monster.
