Moon Knight trailer
Here's a glimpse of a London-accent-using Isaac in action.
And for some more fun, venture here for a trailer with commentary from Isaac and Ethan Hawke, who appears as a cult leader-type figure in the show.
What is Moon Knight about?
The trailer for Moon Knight introduces audiences to Steven Grant, a sleep-deprived and disoriented store employee played by Oscar Isaac. According to a Marvel synopsis, Grant eventually learns he has dissociative identity disorder, sharing his body with a mercenary named Marc Spector.
Things apparently escalate from there: "As Steven/Marc's enemies converge upon them, they must navigate their complex identities while thrust into a deadly mystery among the powerful gods of Egypt," Marvel writes.
In the comics, Spector becomes Moon Knight after an encounter with an Egyptian god. We've yet to learn exactly how Isaac's character takes on the celestial moniker, but we're excited to see how it all pans out.
