Is "Moon Knight" Season 2 Happening? Here's What We Know
Yara Sameh The possibility of "Moon Knight" season 2 gets addressed by the Marvel Cinematic Universe TV showrunner. Developed for the MCU by Jeremy Slater, "Moon Knight" stars Oscar Isaac as Marc Spector/Moon Knight and Steven Grant/Mr. Knight, two alters of a man with dissociative identity disorder, they are drawn into a mystery involving Egyptian gods. May Calamaway, F. Murray Abraham, and Ethan Hawke round out the ensemble of the show's first season, which ended with the cliffhanger introduction of a third alter, Jack Lockey. Despite Moon Knight Season 1 ending with a cliffhanger mid-credits scene, Marvel Studios and Disney+ have not yet ordered a follow-up season. In a new interview with ComicBook , Slater was asked what needs to happen for season 2 to become a reality on Disney+. The showrunner made it clear that, as much as he hopes to see Isaac back as the titular hero, two people can make Moon Knight season 2 happen: "Talk to Kevin Feige, Talk to Oscar Isaac. I think the ball's really in their court. It's as much or as little Moon Knight as Oscar wants to do. Kevin's the guy with the master plan, and I think when he comes up with a way to really incorporate Moon Knight into there … It's my hope that we're gonna see him again, but I'm as curious as the rest of you guys. "Moon Knight" season 1 was made prior to the restructuring with Marvel Television after the creative overhaul on "Daredevil: Born Again", and Marvel Studios is now focused on making more traditional TV shows that run for multiple seasons. Given how the Moon Knight finale ended, there are seeds planted that could lead into season 2 and beyond. However, based on Slater's comments, it will all be up to Kevin Feige and Isaac in the long run, and they may simply be trying to look at how they could extend Moon Knight for several seasons beyond season 2. What may be holding up Moon Knight season 2 right now is the fact that Marvel Studios is trying to finish The Multiverse Saga, as Phase 6 has only a handful of movies and TV shows lined up for the final chapter. The idea may be to do more with Moon Knight in Phase 7, especially if Feige and Isaac find more organic ways for season 2 to work in terms of stories. Given how much there is to explore with Moon Knight, the journey is most likely not over for him yet. Whether or not that will be in the form of the Moon Knight TV show going forward with more seasons or having Isaac appear in other projects where they can continue to explore Marc, Steven, and Jake Lockley in the MCU, alongside other Marvel players, remains to be seen. read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News Egypt confirms denial of airspace access to US B-52 bombers News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia News Australia Fines Telegram $600,000 Over Terrorism, Child Abuse Content Arts & Culture Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's $4.7M LA Home Burglarized Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Sports Neymar Announced for Brazil's Preliminary List for 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers News Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly Inaugurates Two Indian Companies Arts & Culture New Archaeological Discovery from 26th Dynasty Uncovered in Karnak Temple Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies

Daredevil: Born Again Season 2 teases Defenders MCU debut
Daredevil: Born Again that debuted early this year, follows Matt Murdock during one of the darkest chapters of his life. In the new Disney series, Matt finds himself fighting to survive as his world unravels. Armed with intimate knowledge of Matt's life, the Kingpin launches a brutal campaign to dismantle it—arranging his disbarment, freezing his assets, and destroying his personal reputation. Season 2 now teases the long-awaited debut of the full Defenders lineup in the Marvel Cinematic Universe . With Jessica Jones , Luke Cage, and Danny Rand officially part of MCU canon, it's only a matter of time before the team reunites on screen. Luke Cage and Iron Fist stars Mike Colter and Finn Jones teased as much, sharing Instagram stories that confirmed they're in New York at the same time (Colter even commented "My dude" on Jones' post). An observant fan found compelling evidence that further stoked the fire of this speculation. This gave fans the impression that they were filming sequences for Born Again, although they haven't responded to the rumours yet.

A street-level superhero crossover was hinted at by show-runner Dario Scardapane . This was established in Season 1 when Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) had to gather an army of insurgents because the odds were stacked against him. Danny acknowledged that this would have been the perfect time to bring in the defenders, but they wanted to "create a completely organic" build-up to that reunion. "When you're working in what I would call the Hell's Kitchen corner of the MCU, those iconic characters are always in your mind," he told Entertainment Weekly. "...You want to bring in people and relationships and past figures in Matt's life because they help the story,' he further elaborated. Born Again is the perfect opportunity for the Defenders' MCU debut. Depending on audience reception, the show could also be a launch pad for Luke Cage, Jessica Jones, and Iron Fist spinoffs. Born Again could resolve their storylines.

Krysten Ritter to Return as Jessica Jones in Daredevil: Born Again Season 2
After many rumours, it appears Krysten Ritter is set to reprise her role as the hard-hitting, cynical private investigator Jessica Jones. She will officially join the Marvel Cinematic Universe in the upcoming second season of Daredevil: Born Again. The news comes via Variety and its reporting from Disney's upfront presentation to advertisers in New York on Tuesday, where Ritter appeared alongside Charlie Cox, the star of the highly anticipated series. While it was expected, the move helps bridge the Netflix Marvel series with the current Marvel Cinematic Universe, which until now has felt very disconnected. Krysten Ritter, who first embodied the super-powered detective in the acclaimed Netflix series Jessica Jones starting in 2015, expressed her enthusiasm for returning to the character. 'It's so great to be back, returning to Jessica after three seasons and The Defenders and now joining the MCU,' Ritter said during the presentation. 'I'm so excited to bring back this iconic character, and without giving too much away, there is much more in store for Jessica Jones. This is going to be an incredible season!' Ritter's portrayal of Jones was one of the most iconic performances among the Netflix Marvel series, perfectly capturing the essence of a former superhero turned private investigator after a traumatic past. Jessica Jones was a cornerstone of Marvel's original slate of interconnected Netflix series, which also included Daredevil, Luke Cage, Iron Fist and The Punisher, culminating in the somewhat disappointing team-up miniseries The Defenders. These shows concluded their runs on Netflix by 2019, as Disney prepared to launch its own streaming service, Disney+, the new home for Marvel Cinematic Universe content. It's great to see these characters return—even slowly—as Disney gradually reintroduces the beloved figures, with Daredevil: Born Again spearheading this new chapter. The first season, starring Cox as Matt Murdock/Daredevil and Vincent D'Onofrio as Wilson Fisk/Kingpin, debuted to mixed reviews on Disney+, with fans excited by the return, even if the season felt more like a taste of what was to come. Jon Bernthal is also confirmed to return as Frank Castle/The Punisher in the series, and work on the second season, which will feature Ritter's Jessica Jones, is already underway.

‘Death Becomes Her' team on exceeding the film fans' expectations and impressing original director Robert Zemeckis
'They'd be silly not to be skeptical, but luckily this movie just happens to have one of the best fan bases,' says Noel Carey, one-half of the Tony-nominated composing team responsible for bringing the cult-classic 1992 film Death Becomes Her to Broadway. Although screen-to-stage adaptations are always dicey propositions, he shares that diehard fans have embraced the musical: 'They are really excited about the changes and the nods to the film and instead of getting the movie twice, they're just getting another Death Becomes Her.' Carey and other creatives from the production sat down with Gold Derby and other journalists at the 2025 Tony Awards Meet the Nominees press event. Fellow lyricist and composer Julia Mattison believes the reason why this theatrical treatment of the material has been so well received is because she and Carey feel just as passionately about the original movie as decades-long fans do. She explains, 'We love it so much. You have to be a fan of the source material to wake up every day and want to spend all your time and years of your life pouring into it, and so it's made with so much love.'

His approach to the adaptation was not 'to put this movie up on stage.' Instead, he describes, 'I tried really hard to expand characters or invent some characters in this case. … I thought the movie was wonderful, and nothing against the movie at all, but I did think I could push it in new ways.' As Carey and Mattison describe, Pennette has heard nothing but compliments from fans of the film. 'I've fallen in love with Facebook because I get so many friends from high school and then just some fans who just send me a note who I don't know. … Everything has been so glowing. The public is so embracive.' SEE 'Death Becomes Her' writer Marco Pennette realized his Broadway dreams with the help of Hal Prince Creative producer Lowe Cunningham encouraged this approach to the adaptation. 'I think that we did what we set out to do, which is not to take a movie and put songs in it and stick it on stage, but actually evolve it into a new piece that is supposed to exist on stage in the theater but offer you those little Easter Eggs,' she says of the book and score. The most validating feedback she has received about the show so far came from two very important people: 'David Koepp, who wrote the movie, and Robert Zemeckis, who directed the movie, both came and were thrilled. They were the people I was most nervous, because we changed a lot, so I wanted them to feel like we really paid homage to it.' Death Becomes Her is the most Tony nominated production of the year with 10 nominations, tied with Buena Vista Social Club and Maybe Happy Ending. In Gold Derby's latest odds, the show ranks third in the top race for Best Musical, trailing Maybe Happy Ending and Dead Outlaw, which received fewer nominations overall but has bids in all the pivotal categories. Our users currently predict a victory for the show in Costume Design for Paul Tazewell, a past Tony champion for Hamilton who also just took home the Oscar for Wicked and is the first Black man to win that Costume Design prize. It appears very competitive in Scenic Design as well. It ranks fourth in the contests for Directing, Original Score for Mattison and Carey, Book for Pennette, Choreography, Lighting, and actress Jennifer Simard, and fifth for actress Megan Hilty.

'The Last of Us' Season 2 Just Changed How We Understand Joel
The Last of Us It's no secret that fatherhood is a major theme in The Last of Us. But while Joel exists as Ellie's surrogate father figure in both the original video games and the HBO television adaptation, who was Joel's father? The character has never been mentioned, let alone seen in any of the original video games. But on TV, The Last of Us season 2 just gave an answer to a question few fans probably didn't even think to ask. In the newest episode of The Last of Us, "The Price," (season 2, episode 6) the series rewinds the clock to explore the years Joel (Pedro Pascal) and Ellie (Bella Ramsey) spent together in Jackson. While their earliest memories are happy, their relationship strains over time. Not only does Ellie oppose some of Joel's actions—namely, how he kills an infected Jackson resident, Eugene (Joe Pantoliano), despite promising he wouldn't—but Ellie correctly suspects that Joel is hiding what happened in Salt Lake City. But the top of the episode brings audiences back in time even further, to 1983. Before there were fungus zombies and survivalist factions, life for Joel and his brother Tommy was just as bleak under their father, Javier, played by guest star Tony Dalton. (You might recognize him from Better Call Saul, or the Marvel shows Hawkeye and Daredevil: Born Again.) While Javier's screen time is short, his appearance reveals a wealth about Joel, including the seeds that drive him to watch over Ellie like his own daughter. On one fateful night in 1983, a young Tommy (played by David Miranda) gets into a fight with a neighborhood drug dealer, which compels a teenage Joel (Andrew Diaz) to step in. At home, Joel volunteers to take the blame for the whole incident to protect Tommy from a beating at the hands of their father, who is also a cop. Though Javier admits he's abusive, he argues that he isn't as harsh as his own father. "Okay, yeah, I've hit you. And I've hit Tommy," Javier admits to Joel. "But never like that. Not even close." He continues, "But I'm doing a little better than my father did. And you know, when it's your turn, I hope you do a little better than me." Javier then offers his son a beer, a symbol of uneasy understanding between the two of them. The backstory is basically Joel's origin story, showing how and why he was so driven to protect Ellie. He was a man who used violence to protect his loved ones and believed he was doing the right thing, even when his actions said otherwise. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, creator and series executive producer Neil Druckmann explains as much, revealing how the scene encapsulates Joel's outlook that follows him to the end. "What the dad ultimately says is, 'I think I've done the right things, but I'm not entirely sure. I just know that I did things better than my dad, who beat me even worse,'" Druckmann said. "His insecurity about that stays with Joel as well. Joel's doing the best he can with the tools that are in front of him, but he loves Ellie unconditionally." Javier is an original character invented for the HBO series; Joel never mentioned his father in any of the games. But his inclusion deepens our understanding of Joel, a man who had rough edges but held a warmth informed by inherited traumas. You might not agree with anything Joel did, but you can't argue he wasn't doing what he thought was best, even if it killed him.
