There's an official trailer for Moon Knight. It premiers on 3/30 on Disney+.

I really don't know anything about Moon Knight that I haven't learned from watching New Rockstars on YouTube. Erik Voss has a good video reacting to this trailer and he gives us an introduction to the Moon Knight vigilante. You can watch that video here: https://youtu.be/6XvTE2PYsaI

Marc Spector aka "Moon Knight" suffers from dissociative identity disorder. He has multiple personalities and he doesn't know what he's done once the switch occurs.

I did some quick Google searches to learn more about him and share it with you.

Supernatural abilities: "Over his years as Moon Knight, Spector has also exhibited periodic demonstrations of supernatural powers such as enhanced strength during nights with full moons, prophetic visions and dreams, and the ability to drain another person’s life energies through physical contact." (See https://www.marvel.com/characters/moon-knight-marc-spector/in-comics)

A more detailed look at his abilities can be found here: https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Marc_Spector_(Earth-616)#Powers_and_Abilities

He was a mercenary on a mission and nearly died. He made it all the way to an idol of the moon god named Khonshu, who gave him his newfound abilities. You can learn more about him here: https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Marc_Spector_(Earth-616)

I'm looking forward to this as I've become obsessed w/ the MCU. I'm only disappointed and surprised that it seems we have to wait almost two whole months for MCU Disney+ content.

What do you think about this show? Are you familiar with Moon Knight? Let me know!

Trailer looks awesome. Could be the best Marvel Disney+ show if the trailer is good at capturing its overall mood.

I'm really impressed with Oscar Isaac. He's clearly a great actor, clearly a different character in every movie I've seen him in. I can think of other actors who are pretty much the same in every movie, yet they're famous (and I still like them).

Moon Knight is now playing! The first few minutes were a serious "WTF?" scene. I still have know idea why he's doing what he's doing, but I guess that's how cult leaders operate. I found an old but new-to-me song that I relate to all too well and it isn't the one by Wham. I like this so far, but I'm probably strongly biased with my MCU obsession.

Let me know what you think about it!

Loved it. My wife, Joi, is getting tired of me yelling Moon Knight like a crazy man though. :)

These actors with their non-native accents are amazing!!!! I'm just referring to our star here, but it applies to other actors, too. I mentioned this in my Far Cry 6 post.
