Kevin Feige Confirms Similarities Between Moon Knight And WandaVision

On the last day of this month, the very first episode of Moon Knight will arrive on Disney+. Centering on one of the most famous antiheroes of the House of Ideas, the new series produced by Marvel Studios is heavily inspired by the Indiana Jones franchise.
In Moon Knight, Oscar Isaac's character Steven Grant will find out he's suffering from dissociative identity disorder and sharing his body with mercenary Marc Spector, who will later lead him to embark on a journey towards a deadly mystery among the mighty Gods of Egypt.

In an interview with Bionic Buzz during the red carpet for the Moon Knight premiere, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige has mentioned the "mystery" component of the series starring Oscar Isaac, comparing this aspect of the project to WandaVision.
"This series is very much a mystery, and the audience is right with the lead character, Steven Grant," he said. "He wakes up in the morning and he struggles to figure out what is happening to him and what is going on. The audience is with him on that journey throughout all six episodes. For us, it's really fun, almost akin to WandaVision, as each episode something else is uncovered. We travel down that journey with Oscar's character."

Unlike last year when the whole world was still chaotic due to the global pandemic, this year Marvel Studios and the film crew were finally able to roll out the red carpet before Moon Knight officially debuts on Disney+. Talking about this occasion, Feige stressed that being able to hear the audience is absolutely fantastic.
"It's great fun, especially for the Disney+ series where we get to see all the amazing feedback online and read it, but on the premiere night, we get to be in an audience and hear the laughs and hear the cheers and hear the gasps, as there may be tonight. That's wonderful," he shared.
