Moon Knight Gets Rumored Second Season Update

As a cinephile who has been following the Marvel Cinematic Universe since its inception, I can confidently say that the rumored return of Moon Knight is music to my ears. Ethan Hawke’s portrayal of Marc Spector was captivating and the series itself was a refreshing addition to the MCU. The show’s standalone nature allowed it to be enjoyed by both die-hard fans and casual viewers, making it a unique gem in Marvel’s vast collection.


Among Marvel Studios’ most successful yet often overlooked TV shows within the MCU is one that first appeared on Disney+ over two years ago, with no apparent development on a long-anticipated second season. However, according to a recent rumor from The Cosmic Circus by Alex Perez, there could be progress in bringing back “Moon Knight” as Marc Spector once more.

The information from Perez suggests a promising development for “Moon Knight” enthusiasts who thought they might never witness Marc Spector and his personas again on screen. Perez hints that Marvel Studios has found an idea for the second season of Moon Knight that has them feeling optimistic. However, there’s no word yet on when we might see Isaac back in action as Moon Knight, but Perez expressed a sense of assurance about its eventual return.

Moon Knight will return.

Given Marvel Studios’ history of keeping their key characters relevant, the series finale strongly hinted at further adventures from Moon Knight’s supernatural realm within the MCU. Despite being categorized as a limited series – from its Emmy submission to its storyline – there has long been an expectation that Moon Knight would resurface in some form. The resurgence of talk about the Midnight Sons project lends credence to the notion that Marc Spector could be part of Marvel’s future plans.

Moon Knight’s Place in the MCU is Uncertain

Unlike several Marvel Studios releases that firmly fit into the chronology of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), the Moon Knight series doesn’t share this distinction. Despite numerous theories suggesting a 2025 setting for the show, it deliberately refrained from establishing links to the broader MCU, a decision that ultimately proved beneficial.

One key strength of “Moon Knight” was its accessibility for viewers. Unlike some other Marvel productions, you didn’t need prior knowledge about the Marvel cinematic universe to fully appreciate it. It functioned as a self-contained story, making it enjoyable for anyone regardless of whether they had watched earlier movies or shows within the franchise. This freedom from pre-existing continuity also allowed the series to play freely with its timeline. Despite some fans assuming that the show takes place in 2025, Marvel Studios intentionally left room for uncertainty, allowing a potential second season to be released at any point during or following the Multiverse Saga.

Essentially, it’s uncertain when we’ll catch another glimpse of Moon Knight, although whispers suggest a possible role in Season 3 of “What If…?” With the Multiverse Saga reaching its climax in “Avengers: Secret Wars,” it seems prudent to hold onto characters like Moon Knight and other Marvel supernatural heroes for whatever is planned next.
