Marvel Studios dropped the first look at several live-action Disney+ series including Moon Knight, She-Hulk, and Ms. Marvel.
This year’s Disney+ Day was surprisingly quiet on the Star Wars front, aside from a brief peek at the Star Wars: Obi-Wan Kenobi series. However, it was a very busy day for fans of Marvel Studios, both in terms of live-action series and some very exciting animated projects. Several clips and images that debuted during the event offered a look at what’s in Marvel’s future on Disney+. One of the most anticipated Marvel Studios shows is Moon Knight, which features Oscar Isaac in the lead as Marc Spector and his white-clad alter ego. In a clip that debuted on Disney+ Day, Marc suffers from dissociative identity disorder like his comic book counterpart, and his multiple personalities are not always on the same page. He has also been chosen by Khonshu, the Egyptian God of the moon, to be his “fist,” or champion, if you prefer. Moon Knight’s familiar, stark-white outfit was only visible from a distance, but the footage gave off Daredevil vibes. And that’s a good thing. Next up is She-Hulk, a half-hour comedy series starring Orphan Black ‘s Tatiana Maslany as Jennifer Walters, the cousin of Bruce Banner/Hulk (Mark Ruffalo). The preview hid the full reveal of Jennifer as She-Hulk, but the short clips of her transformed state suggest that she will resemble her classic persona. The thing that separates Jennifer from her cousin in the comics is that she retains her intellect and personality as She-Hulk. In the clip, we also see Jennifer with Bruce, both as the Smart Hulk and as himself, while he explains how the transformations are triggered. That’s how they are triggered for Bruce, that is. Jennifer is her own kind of Hulk, though, and the only Hulk who can continue her legal career while in her green-skinned form.
