Marvel’s Moon Knight is launched and instantly looks like a must-watch appointment on Disney Plus. When can we expect to see (and hear) Oscar Isaac as the troubled superhero? An intriguing phone call, a terrible dinner date, and some terrifying action scenes opened Moon Knight’s debut episode. Now that we’ve seen the second episode, it’s time to be ready for the rest of the season. The episodes will most likely be released weekly on Wednesdays, similar to past Marvel series on Disney Plus. We know there will be six throughout the season and that they’ll clock in at roughly 40 to 50 minutes apiece.
Moon Knight is an ongoing serial, which is a part of phase 4 of the MCU. Created by Jeremy Slater for Disney+, it is based on Marvel Comics featuring a character of the same name. This show stands out from the crowd. Some advancements in it are pretty fascinating. Moon Knight is an ongoing serial, which is a part of phase 4 of the MCU.

Last week’s episode of Moon Knight moved viewpoint to introduce Marc Spector, and this week it’s a change in location on the cards: we’re headed to Cairo! Episode 3 explores the realm of Egyptian deities, avatars, and the power of the suit, and also dives deeply into Marc’s fragile relationship with his allegedly separated wife Layla, as well as the connection between Khonsu and Marc/Steven.

Moon Knight Episode 3 Plotline
While watching the episode, it’s easy to imagine a version of Moon Knight in which Marc is the primary emphasis from the first. It’s less interested in spending its first episode delving into the hero’s murky psyche than it is in fleshing out any narrative or storyline, which gives it a more somber and serious tone with its subtle, clever quips. But that isn’t the case, and thus the freshness of Steven is noticeably lacking as we spend more time with Marc, who, granted, is a fascinating protagonist in his own right, but perhaps he’s just not as enjoyable.
Episode 3 also marks the first point Marc’s Dissociative Identity Disorder is addressed directly, with Harrow saying Khonshu is taking advantage of a ‘deeply troubled man’. Marc and Steven actively work together (sort-of) in this episode’s greatest action scene as a counterbalance, and the spectator gets to see how Marc deals with Steven’s existence. Because of Isaac’s outstanding performance, the emotional vulnerability of both Marc and Steven is made equally palpable by the actor’s seamless transition between the two characters, as well as his sobbing admittance that he is ‘unwell.’ With his mercenary skills and single-minded goal on stopping Harrow, this character may come out as clichéd and action hero-esque in the fictional Marc-centric version. (Minus the entire possessed by an Egyptian God, thing.) Although Marc is more layered with Isaac, it’s not hard to imagine how much they’ll both be missed if they trade places at the end of the season.
Marc gets the big action sequence this week, with Steven’s brief intrusion being a lackluster point for the episode since it interrupts the flow, feeling a bit superfluous and abrupt. It is a lot more stylish and well-choreographed than the last episode though, (maybe because we can see the opponents this time), even though there are still times of CGI that feel a little odd. It also introduces us to the late Gaspard Ulliel’s Mogart, whose ambiguous antiquities aficionado was interesting but underused. Perhaps he’ll come up again, perhaps he won’t, but it was wonderful to see him on screen and he gave what could have been a formulaic, uninteresting stereotype of ‘rich bad guy’ some color, so hopefully, he wasn’t a one-and-done character addition.
The biggest new factor in this episode is Layla, whose past as a smuggler – or thief of things that are ‘already stolen’ – helps Marc out of a bind; whose chemistry with Marc and Steven really sells the past relationship aspect, and who proves herself to be more than capable of participating in the action. Calamawy invigorates the show and provides Marc and Steven some balance, but also hints at the darker side of Marc’s past. In such a complex drama, it’s dubious that director Mohamed Diab added a reference to the death of her father as something other than set up for next week, but we’ll have to wait and see if her narrative is more interwoven with Marc’s than already thought.
This episode of Moon Knight is reminiscent of Stephen Sommer’s The Mummy in a positive manner, and it highlights the show’s willingness to experiment with the genre by giving Marc and Steven’s search for Harrow an action-adventure flavor. It also isn’t hesitant to go for the kill, as evidenced by the episode’s final sequence in which the sky is actually turned backward, as well as an earlier joke about masturbation. It underscores the impression that this play could turn in a variety of directions at any point and keeps the audience on their toes. When it comes to Stranger Things, Marvel is relying on its audience to go with the bizarre flow. To tell Marc/story, Steven’s they aren’t depending on tropes or formulae. And as a result, Moon Knight’s abilities are improving.
