Moon Knight Episode 5 References Black Panther's Heaven

Image
Ever since Black Panther was released in theaters, showing fans a visage of Bast and witnessing Chadwick Boseman's T'Challa visiting the Ancestral Plane, many wondered if either were 100% real. However, while Black Panther may have been ambiguous regarding its more fantastical elements, Moon Knight has been anything but, especially in the latest episode, "Asylum." Marvel It was always left to chance that the vision brought on by the consumption of the heart-shaped herb caused one to hallucinate Wakanda's afterlife, but the latest episode of Moon Knight no longer leaves any doubt about it. The Ancestral Plane is real, which carries significant implications for the rest of the Marvel Cinematic Universe moving forward.

Moon Knight  has truly proven to be Marvel Studios' most confusing and mind-bending series yet, even rivaling the infamous levels of mystery found in  WandaVision . Over the four episodes released so far, viewers have gotten to know both Marc Spector and Steven Grant, two personalities living in the head of a mentally ill man, enslaved by the Egyptian god Khonshu to do his bidding. WARNING - The rest of this article contains spoilers for  Moon Knight  Episode 4, "The Tomb."

Between the inclusion of almost every character, visual nods to earlier episodes, and even imag...

Questioning the reality around what Oscar Isaac's leading men   experience has long been part of the experience when following his story. His multiple personalities lead to complete disorientation and confusion at times—even for Spector himself.  As exciting as all of Episode 4’s twists and turns were, there was something else audiences may have missed.

New Moon Knight Episode Suggests He Got His Powers BEFORE Avengers: Infinity War

Image
Early on in  Moon Knight , the Disney+ series has provided more questions for fans than answers. The first few episodes have received rave reviews as the mystery around Oscar Isaac's Marc Spector begins to unfold on-screen. Audiences were thrown into the action as Spector's dissociative identity disorder was put on full display, showing how the mercenary-turned-vigilante shared his mind with a lowly gift shopper employee, Steven Grant.  So far, fans have spent a fair amount of time figuring out who Spector is at the same pace as Isaac's Grant does on-screen. While Marc is seasoned in the world of ancient Egyptian mythology, serving as an avatar for the god Khonshu (which grants him the ability to wield the Moon Knight armor), Steven is still very much new to the whole world of crime-fighting.  ADVERTISEMENT Viewers have seen everything in Steven's Moon Knight journey up to this point. But exactly how long has Marc Spector been moonlightin...

Marvel Studios is now headed toward the final three episodes of Moon Knight , giving fans a look into Marc Spector and the multiple personalities in his head. While fans wait for the Avengers to make their return after Avengers: Endgame , Moon Knight provides a new experience with a skilled fighter who’s tied to the MCU’s take on Ancient Egyptian mythology.

ADVERTISEMENT At some point, one of those antagonists will most likely be Jonathan Majors' Kang the Conquerer, whose Variant showed up in 2021's Loki ahead of his theatrical arrival in 2023's...

How Moon Knight's Credits Scenes Are Changing Every Episode (Photos)

Image
Marvel Studios is officially at the halfway mark of Moon Knight , with three episodes telling the story of Marc Spector, Steven Grant, and Marvel's take on ancient Egyptian mythology. More so than any series in the MCU's history, Moon Knight has the opportunity to take a deep look into different characters and locales through the story that's already been told. Thanks to Marc Spector's experience with Dissociative Identity Disorder, fans have spent ample time with one of the character's alternate personalities in Steven Grant, an everyday man who worked at a gift shop. The first two episodes saw him learn about the other side of him in Marc along with Marc's ties to the Moon God Khonshu, taking him 3,500 miles from his life in London to the deserts of Cairo, Egypt.

As 2022 moves further forward, Marvel Studios dives deeper into Oscar Isaac's Moon Knight with its third full episode now available for viewing. Expanding on Isaac's Marc Spector while also featuring more story and action for both Ethan Hawke's Arthur Harrow and May Calamawy's Layla, Episode 3 gave fans a thrilling new round of action and drama. More so than any MCU project in a long time, Moon Knight has largely told its own self-contained story rather than trying to connect Marc and crew to the larger expanding universe. Even with rumors about Mark Ruffalo's Hulk potentially showing up later and Isaac's vision for a Midnight Sons arrival, this character's adventures in London and Cairo haven't put him in any past characters' crosshairs yet. ADVERTISEMENT That isn't to say that Moon Knight is in a completely separate universe, as Episode 2 featured an ad for the Global Repatriation Council, first introduced in T...

Did Moon Knight's New Episode Just Tease a Thor 4 Plot Point?

Image
It should be common knowledge to most by now that Christian Bale joined the cast of Thor: Love and Thunder as its villain, Gorr the God Butcher. Now, with Gorr as the main villain, it's unlikely for audiences to only see him fighting Thor and the other Asgardian survivors without witnessing his path of carnage against other gods. Gods which Marvel Studios is seemingly introducing into the Marvel Cinematic Universe at a rapid pace, almost as if to purposefully serve them up on a silver platter for the alien butcher. The panther goddess Bast was properly introduced in Black Panther , and now the Disney+ series, Moon Knight , is all about a war between gods. All of whom could appear in Love and Thunder to be killed by Gorr, except for one. ADVERTISEMENT There's a line of dialogue in the newest episode of Moon Knight that may preclude Khonshu from making an appearance alongside his fellow Egyptian deities in  Thor: Love and Thunder , which might w...
