Marvel’s Moon Knight has unmasked several members of its cast, starring alongside Oscar Isaac’s titular MCU character.
Moon Knight tells the story of Marc Spector, a former soldier of fortune, whose encounter with an Egyptian god of vengeance and moon deity, Khonshu, leads to his transformation into a costumed vigilante. He will find himself facing off against a gauntlet of threats, including Ethan Hawke’s flowy-haired cult leader who is said to be inspired by David Koresh.

Marvel’s Moon Knight: Who’s Who in the Cast?
Oscar Isaac as Marc Spector/Moon Knight
Oscar Isaac will lead the cast of Marvel’s Moon Knight, playing the show’s eponymous vigilante, suffering from a dissociative identity disorder. The first full trailer shows Isaac at war with his various personalities, including that of Steven Grant, who puts in an appearance as “a mild-mannered gift-shop employee,” rather than the millionaire playboy of the comics.
Curiously, the Moon Knight trailer and synopsis features zero references to Jake Lockley, who happens to be one of Marc Spector’s other aliases in the comics. Fans are now wondering whether the titular mercenary’s moustached alter-ego will be making an appearance in the series or whether he has been erased from the storyline altogether.
Ethan Hawke as Arthur Harrow
Ethan Hawke decided to make the jump to the MCU last year when he signed on to play the main villain of the Moon Knight series. Hawke has notoriously stayed away from comic book movies and mainstream Hollywood franchises, however, Isaac managed to get him on board for the MCU miniseries by simply asking him if he wanted to join in on the action.
For a long time, it was unknown which villain Hawke would portray, but the closed captions on Moon Knight’s YouTube trailer via the Marvel Entertainment page revealed him to be Arthur Harrow, a character who only appeared in one comic – Moon Knight Vol. 2 #2 – and was a mad scientist working on stopping pain in the human body by using human subjects.
May Calamawy
According to The Hollywood Reporter, May Calamawy joined the cast of Marvel’s Moon Knight in an undisclosed role. Calamawy is best known for playing Dena Hassan in Hulu’s Ramy, and she has now reportedly nabbed another key role on the small screen. It’s possible that she’ll star as Isaac’s love interest Marlene Alraune in Moon Knight but we’ll have to wait and see.
Gaspard Ulliel as Anton Mogart/Midnight Man
ScreenRant previously reported that a listing on Gaspard Ulliel’s talent agency page showed the actor as taking on the role of Anton Mogart aka Midnight Man in Moon Knight, but Marvel has yet to confirm Ulliel’s involvement. Moon Knight appears to have been wiped from Ulliel’s portfolio since the initial report, though he is listed on the show’s IMDB cast page.
Emily VanCamp as Sharon Carter
Emily VanCamp is heavily rumored to be reprising her role as Sharon Carter in Marvel’s Moon Knight series following her stint in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. The speculation, fuelled by a report from The Ronin, suggests VanCamp will be making a return to the MCU’s Phase 4 in Moon Knight, though it’s unknown if she would be taking on a brief cameo or a larger role.
