Moon Knight Detail Already Teased Its Next Shocking Identity Twist
The Disney+ series moon Knight gets off to an odd start in episode 1, but the mention of gods already hints at a major shift in Steven's identity compared to the original Marvel comics. moon Knight's character and how he is presented have already undergone some alterations. In the comics, Marc Spector is the main character, and Steven, a millionaire, is an alter. However, moon Knight portrays Steven as the main character from the perspective of the audience, and he is far from a millionaire.
During Steven Grant's (Oscar Isaac) work at the museum gift shop in moon Knight episode 1, "The Goldfish Problem," he tries to warn his manager that the posters for the Egyptian Gods exhibit are incorrect, depicting only seven gods when there should be nine. His management ignores his protests by joking that they were probably dismissed. Later, while trying to stay awake, Steven is reading an Egyptian Gods book when he comes across a page about The Ennead, a fictionalised version of which is depicted in Marvel comics and now the MCU, which mentions that all nine gods of the Ennead descended from one original god who was not depicted.
The motif of the nine gods that make up the Egyptian Ennead draws a striking comparison to moon Knight's main character, who has DID and is made up of numerous people. This picture of the Ennead, on the other hand, implies that the moon Knight tv programme is aiming to make this important character much more nuanced. Marc Spector is the main character in the comics, but he also has four other alter egos: Steven Grant (a billionaire), Jake Lockley (a cabbie), moon Knight (the crusader), and Mr. Knight (the character's connection with civilians in need).
