Moon Knight Series has introduced a new character Layla, Marc Spector’s wife. Her back story is similar to that of the comic book love interest of Marc Spector, including having an archeologist father who was killed on the same night when her husband became Moon knight.
In the series’ final episode Layla makes a deal with the Egyptian Goddess Taweret and becomes a temporary avatar on earth to help her husband to seal away Ammit.
What May Calamawy Thinks About Layla And Her Future As Scarlet Scarab
In an interview with Inverse, May Calamawy revealed that she has no idea about Scarlet Scarab’s future. But she reveals that she would love to interact with Doctor Strange. She has also revealed that she is open to any appearance in the MCU.
Calamawy said, “There has been nothing yet that I know of what could happen with Scarlet Scarab. But I love Dr. Strange, that would be cool. The blade would be cool because I’ve worked with Mahershala Ali and I think he’s so wonderful. And then, I love all the women. I love Agatha. I feel like in the beginning, I used to love anyone that was kind of a villain like Nebula. I found them so complex. But honestly, it depends on the story. I kind of want to be with all of them.”
Will Scarlet Make A Comeback?
It is still unknown whether moon knight will be returning for season 2 or not. Oscar Isaac has only signed the series for one season. There is a possibility that Layla might become an important part of the MCU in the future. As the supernatural side of the MCU expands the character could cross over with Werewolf by Night or Blade.
Layla being an archeologist has a possibility of appearing in Eternal mythology in a sequel as well. She can also be an ally to Shang-chi to help him unveil the secrets of the Ten Rings. Scarlet Scarab is a great example of how Marvel studios turn small characters into fan favorites.
