Marvel's Moon Knight TV series: Release date, trailers, and how to watch

on

Disney has been coy about which Marvel Studios production is next up to hit its streaming service. But, now, it's official: Moon Knight.

The studio first revealed during its Disney+ Day presentation last year that it was working on the TV series, and it's finally just treated us all to a first trailer while confirming when we will be able to watch it. Here's everything you need to know about Moon Knight, including what the Marvel Cinematic Universe Phase Four project is about, who stars in it, when it will be available, and how to stream it. 

What is the premise of Moon Knight?

The six-episode TV series will tell the story of hired gun Marc Spector.

Saved by Egyptian gods when left for dead in the desert, Spector dons the mantle of Moon Knight. He has dissociative identity disorder and is generally a little crazy. Over the course of the comics, Spector's identity changes quite a bit, as does his backstory. For instance, in some versions, he has superpowers, acting as the vessel for Moon God Khonshu. But, in other iterations, he is more of a mortal.

We know Oscar Isaac is slated to star asMoon Knight, thanks to a first look at the show that debuted during Disney+ Day as well as the first trailer.

Who stars in Moon Knight?

In addition to Oscar Isaac, the cast is rounded out by Ethan Hawke as an undisclosed villainous role. May Calamawy has also been cast in the series. Jeremy Slater, who worked on Josh Trank’s ill-fated Fantastic Four reboot and adapted superhero drama The Umbrella Academy for Netflix, is leading the writing team on Moon Knight. It's also been reported that Mohamed Diab will serve as a director on the upcoming project.

When will Moon Knight premiere?

The official release date is currently set for 30 March 2022.

Where can you stream Moon Knight?

Disney has already revealed the TV series will premiere on Disney+.

How to catch up and get ready for Moon Knight

There are over two dozen Marvel Studios movies and shows to watch. It's hard to say if any of those will be essential to the new show. Pocket-lint has rounded up the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe and the best way to watch it here. We suggest at least watching the new Disney+ shows or everything after Avengers: Endgame, since that film closes out Phase Three and we're now well onto Phase Four with Moon Knight.

What is the best streaming device for your TV? Our top recommendation is the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max. Also excellent are the Google Chromecast with Google TV, the Roku Express 4K, the Apple TV 4K and the Amazon Fire TV Stick.
