"Moon Knight to Return, Marvel Confirms, but No Season 2"
Marvel enthusiasts eager to see more of Oscar Isaac's Moon Knight in the MCU will have to temper their expectations for a Season 2 of the Disney+ series. According to Brad Winderbaum, head of Marvel Television, while there are plans for the character's future, a second season of the show isn't on the cards.
Since the release of Moon Knight in 2022, Marvel Television has shifted its strategy. Initially, the focus was on using TV shows to introduce characters who would later connect with other MCU projects. A prime example is Kamala Khan, who debuted in the Ms. Marvel series before appearing in The Marvels. However, the approach has evolved to align more closely with traditional television formats, emphasizing annual releases.
Winderbaum elaborated on this change, stating, "So I think Marvel Television has happened in waves, and I think Moon Knight happened in a wave of shows that were going to establish characters that would tie-in to the future. And moving forward our priorities have shifted. We’re making shows as shows that can exist as annual releases, more like television. I would love to see a Moon Knight Season 2, but there are plans for Moon Knight down the road."
While fans have heard Oscar Isaac's voice as Moon Knight in the third and final season of the animated series Marvel’s What If…?, there's no confirmed news yet on his return in live-action.
Looking ahead, Marvel's confirmed lineup of upcoming Disney+ shows includes Daredevil: Born Again in March, Ironheart in June, Eyes of Wakanda in August, Marvel Zombies in October, and Wonder Man in December. However, last week, Marvel Television reportedly paused development on three other shows: Nova, Strange Academy, and Terror, Inc. On a brighter note, Winderbaum hinted at the potential revival of the street-level heroes from the Netflix series, including Daredevil, Luke Cage, Jessica Jones, and Iron Fist, collectively known as The Defenders.
