'Moon Knight': Oscar Isaac Reveals The 1 MCU Superhero He Wants To Team Up With
Oscar Isaac is about to enter the Marvel Cinematic Universe via Moon Knight , and the world may never be the same again. Early reviews of the Marvel Disney+ show claimed it was very different from anything the MCU has ever done, which is a good thing. However, there may be times when Moon Knight moves on to other shows or movies, and he'll have to team up with established superheroes. So which character does Isaac want to fight?
Oscar Isaac makes his MCU debut in 'Moon Knight'
Moon Knight will introduce a new vigilante to the world, and he's unlike any MCU superhero. Oscar Isaac plays the show's main character, but it's complicated. Moon Knight has dissociative identity disorder, which means he has multiple personalities. His various personalities include Marc Spector, Steven Grant, and Mr. Knight.
Isaac will start the show as Steven, a shy Englishman living in London. He soon discovers his dark past, this is where Marc will come to play. Marc was a mercenary in the comics who became a conduit for the Egyptian moon god Khonshu after he nearly died under his statue. And based on the Moon Knight trailer, it looks like Khonshu is starting to haunt Steven in his dreams and while he's awake.
Moon Knight will delve into horror themes and explore a dark side of the MCU that has never been seen before, and Oscar Isaac is at the center of it all.
Which Marvel superhero does Oscar Isaac want Moon Knight to team up with?
At an early screening of Moon Knight in London, Hits Radio UK asked Oscar Isaac which MCU character he could see Moon Knight teaming up with.
"I mean, he's a little lonely, so that's the problem," Isaac replied. “I don't know, maybe… Who would he get along with in the MCU out of everyone else? Hulk maybe! Yeah, I could see it coming.
Mark Ruffalo will reprise his role as Bruce Banner/Hulk in She-Hulk which will be released in 2022 after Ms. Marvel . And many fans think Ruffalo might make a cameo as an Avenger near the end of Moon Knight . So Oscar Isaac would have accidentally spoiled his appearance in Moon Knight .
Either way, it looks like Moon Knight will be a part of the MCU for years to come, so there's plenty of time for a Moon Knight/Hulk team-up.
'Moon Knight' Director Teases The Future Of The Vigilante
While speaking with SFX Magazine, Moon Knight director Mohamed Diab revealed what he thinks is in store for Oscar Isaac's future in the MCU.
“I dream and wish for a movie,” Diab explained. "But with Marvel, the way they play it, it's not like you're graduating from a movie. You can go to a movie and come to a TV show and go back.
So he doesn't think a Moon Knight movie is in the cards. However, the director said, "But I can tell you for a fact, I can see [Moon Knight] in the next 10 years, not just the next movie. He's a very interesting character. He is probably the most interesting character for an actor to play. Oscar does a great job. People already love it, even from the trailer. I think the show is going to resonate with people, so I see it sticking around for a long time.
