Moon Knight Theory Reveals Ethan Hawke Villain's True Intentions

Marvel Studios' 2022 slate has officially kicked off with a new six-episode series for Disney+, Moon Knight . Starring Oscar Isaac as not one but various personas, Moon Knight is mired in a mystery involving the gods of Egypt, specifically the moon deity Khonshu.

Well, that is, for the moment.  With Marvel's newest hero also comes its latest villain - the unsettling cult leader Arthur Harrow. Played by Ethan Hawke, Arthur Harrow has his own connections to the gods of Egypt and a disturbing mission.  ADVERTISEMENT Since only one episode has been released at this point, Arthur Harrow's reasons and intentions are currently up for debate.
