Marvel’s “Moon Knight“ wrapped its six-season limited series in 2022, but Oscar Isaac has recently revealed that the character could potentially return to the MCU in a Midnight Sons feature.
Fans have long speculated that Moon Knight will next appear in an adaptation of Midnight Sons, Marvel’s supernatural team comprised of Blade, Morbius, and Ghost Riders Danny Ketch and Johnny Blaze and more.
Speaking via the Happy, Sad, Confused podcast, Isaac has confirmed that there was “interesting talk” about potential plans for a Midnight Sons movie, though it’s not currently in active development.
“Yeah, there was an interesting talk about Midnight Sons,” Isaac revealed. “Tonally, it’s really important because we’re playing with real stuff with that one. It’s expressing something very real, challenging, and difficult. I feel like if you’re gonna go, you gotta take it seriously as well. Even though it’s a crazy comic book, but that’s what it’s trying to do; it’s doing both of those things.“
Of course, Marvel’s long-beleagured Blade still has yet to gain traction and remains stalled, but the Midnight Sons team has also included characters who have already appeared in the MCU, like Man-Thing, Jack Russell (Gael García Bernal), and Elsa Bloodstone (Laura Donnelly) from Werewolf by Night.
Isaac’s Moon Knight isn’t one of the original characters in Midnight Sons‘ storyline, either, further opening up possibilities for what a movie and its team could look like.
But the actor would like to see Ghost Rider and Blade make the initial cut. “Make it happen, fellas, it’s a no-brainer,” Isaac answered when asked about casting Ryan Gosling as Ghost Rider and Blade actor Mahersala Ali as part of the trio.
The MCU is gearing up for the Phase Six event entry, Avengers: Doomsday, though, so it might be a while before we hear further updates on this potential project.
