Show director Mohamed Diab reveals how Moon Knight can drive the MCU crazy. Marvel Studios' latest hero has finally arrived via his own Disney+ series. Moon Knight introduces Oscar Isaac's Steven Grant and his alters. But while the show has limited ties to the bigger franchise it belongs to, it's only a matter of time before Moon Knight encounters his fellow heroes in the universe, and Diab has an idea about what it might look like.
After his stints in Star Wars and Dune, Isaac tries again to enter the Marvel world, this time, through the MCU.

Now, however, his superhero outing makes him a hero, albeit a complicated one. Audiences are first introduced to Steven Grant; based in London, he's a bumbling but kind gift shop employee. What he doesn't know is that he's suffering from a dissociative identity disorder. He shares the body with Marc Spector who become Moon Knight after he was blessed by the Egyptian moon god, Khonshu with powers.
