As a long-time Marvel fan and avid gamer, I can’t help but feel the thrill coursing through my veins when I hear rumors of Oscar Isaac’s Moon Knight returning to the MCU! After binge-watching his gripping solo series, I was left with an unquenchable thirst for more Moon Knight adventures. The cliffhanger ending, which introduced the enigmatic Jake Lockley, had me on the edge of my seat, eagerly awaiting news about our moon-knighted crusader.

Since the conclusion of Oscar Isaac’s Moon Knight solo series on Disney Plus in 2022, there have been no reported sightings or updates about him. Yet, a fresh speculation is circulating that Moon Knight may reappear in at least two significant Marvel Cinematic Universe productions.

The TV show Moon Knight ended with the characters Marc Spector and Steven Grant (who have multiple personalities) no longer being controlled by Khonshu, an ancient Egyptian moon god. This freedom came at the cost of losing their Moon Knight powers. However, a scene shown during the credits hinted that there’s another personality named Jake Lockley who still works for Khonshu and is ready to kill without hesitation. Fans had hoped this would be further developed in future Marvel Cinematic Universe projects, but as of now, there’s no definitive news about Moon Knight returning.

Now, scooper MyTimeToShineHello has provided an update on when fans will see Moon Knight return to the MCU. The news was revealed after MyTimeToShineHello responded to an X post featuring a GIF of Moon Knight’s transformation, positing that they may have been too harsh on the series. In response, another X user asked if fans will ever see Moon Knight again, noting that they haven’t heard any concrete news in 2 years. MyTimeToShineHello gave a short and simple answer: fans will see Moon Knight return in Avengers and Midnight Suns.

It’s worth noting that MyTimeToShineHello didn’t clarify whether Moon Knight would feature in either “Avengers: Doomsday” or “Avengers: Secret Wars”, or possibly both. Given the current direction of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, his potential appearance in either film could be unexpected. However, it makes sense for him to be part of a “Midnight Suns” project. This is because in Marvel Comics, the Midnight Sons are a group of supernatural heroes, often consisting of characters like Blade, Morbius, and Ghost Rider. Moon Knight wouldn’t stand out among such company.

In line with whispers about Marvel Studios’ upcoming supernatural story arc following Secret Wars, it is speculated that Moon Knight will make a comeback in the Midnight Suns project. Nevertheless, it’s crucial to stress that neither the Midnight Suns nor Moon Knight’s return has been verified by official channels. Isaac is set to resume his role in What If…? season 3, but this animated series explores distinct realms within the multiverse and may not feature the familiar version of the character.

It’s clear that numerous fans are eager for Moon Knight to reappear in a standalone project before joining the Avengers team. The complex questions raised by Jake Lockley’s reveal in the Moon Knight finale might be too intricate to address in an Avengers film, which needs to cater to multiple characters. Moreover, these questions are crucial and should not be left unanswered until a later project. Therefore, fans might look forward to Moon Knight joining forces with other superheroes (if the rumors are correct), but they view the uncertainty surrounding Moon Knight season 2 as evidence that Marvel Studios doesn’t prioritize its fanbase.

Moon Knight is available on Disney Plus.
