Following a first look for the series, Disney+ has released the synopsis for Moon Knight, which promises to explore the multiple personalities of series protagonist Marc Spector.

The synopsis calls Moon Knight a "complex vigilante who suffers from dissociative identity disorder." However, these identities find themselves "thrust into a deadly war of the gods against the backdrop of modern and ancient Egypt." The synopsis does not provide further details or reveal the name of the show's villain, who will be played by Ethan Hawke and who Hawke based on cult leader David Koresh, as confirmed by the actor himself.

Prior to the release of the teaser and the synopsis, lead actor Oscar Isaac recently discussed his work on Moon Knight, calling the show his career's biggest challenge. "Speaking with Kevin [Feige], I told him I'm going to come in with these big ideas, and if you don’t like them, that's fair," Issac stated. "And immediately, we saw it all. I found so much room to do things that I've never done before and had been curious about and wanting to do. I could not wait to get to set, and it was the biggest workload I've ever had in my career and most challenging; by the sheer amount of stuff we had to do in eight months, and even yet, I couldn't wait to get to set and work."

In addition, it is also rumored that Mahershala Ali's take on Blade will appear in Moon Knight, with the Hulk also being theorized to show up in the series. However, Hulk actor Mark Ruffalo has not confirmed if this is true, with his only response to an article discussing it being a self-deprecating tweet: "As the person who's responsible for this next phase of the MCU, I would hate to spoil something," the Marvel Cinematic Universe veteran stated. "I have learned the hard way."
