The Return of Moon Knight? Marvel Animation Has Our Attention
Hey, fans of Moon Knight – it's time to put your conspiracy theories aside. We finally have some confirmation about when (and how) that guy will make a return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The Moon Knight fans are about to get a supercharged dose of superhero madness. Marvel Animation unveiled a "sizzle reel", basically an action-packed preview of upcoming events. And guess what they showed? That's right, our moon-powered hero!
While the reveal doesn't confirm a standalone Moon Knight series anytime soon, there’s still tons of buzz because it confirms the character is officially coming back. This is huge, as it has been ages since Oscar Isaac, playing Marc Spector (and those awesome alternate personas) made his debut in the Marvel Universe!
Marvel's "What If...?" Series is a Big Deal for Moon Knight Fans
If you're still catching up on the world of the Marvel Universe, What If...? is pretty important to remember. It’s an awesome series about, well, what if things had turned out different in the Marvel Universe? We're talking about reimagining big moments in some wild, alternate reality, so you can always expect some big surprises. The "What If" episodes have already seen crazy variations in Marvel’s history: Think what if a super-powered version of Black Widow was a force for evil or if Tony Stark's father had stayed alive! This new season of What If…? promises a crazy collection of new, out-of-this-world story lines, all with the mind-blowing, "What If...?" twists!
Imagine that, now it's Moon Knight's turn. It’s an incredible chance to get a new glimpse into how he could have been a totally different kind of hero, a different path, and potentially a different kind of Moon Knight persona! The hype is growing! The second season of "What If..." gave us even more amazing moments to enjoy and, based on that crazy lineup of amazing heroes (Ironheart and all those Iron Legions! Red Guardian and Winter Soldier team up!) there’s no doubt it’ll bring even bigger craziness to What If...? This time, the show has already confirmed it’ll explore those characters in a “Western-esque setting” (sounds like the start of a cowboy show!)
Can We Expect a Full Season of "What If...? Moon Knight?
Right now, no one’s confirming what to expect, or if the show is getting a full Season 3 (fingers crossed). The trailers, teasers, and sneak peaks are already getting some people buzzing, but it’s unclear just how much screen time Moon Knight will get in the midst of the mayhem and wild, "What If" moments!
But it's a HUGE deal! Fans have been waiting to see more from Moon Knight after he wowed us with his amazing stories. We loved his journey through that supernatural mind-bending adventure. But we are still hoping to get more from those mind-blowing fights, his powers, and the complex character of Marc Spector. We're still excited! I bet some diehard Moon Knight fans have already predicted those alternate universes based on those "What If" scenarios but it's always super exciting to see it actually on screen!
"What If...?" Might Be the First Step to a Full Season
So, here's what could happen. It might be a sneak peak to Moon Knight's official return to the MCU! Yeah, the whole "What If...?" episode could give the folks at Marvel Studios a good taste of the popularity and excitement about a new Moon Knight journey! And those big plans for a new universe that includes a new Thor and a new Superman could pave the way for even more crazy storylines about our favorite hero!
What a wild and crazy ride this is already shaping up to be. Remember all that action, humor, and all the "what ifs"? With the addition of Moon Knight in the midst of the madness, I am not only hyped for What If...? Season 3 but the whole future of the MCU! There are always possibilities for those incredible heroes and super-powered villains!
