Mohamed Diab, the visionary director behind the ‘Moon Knight’ series, recently shared his thoughts on the potential future of the show. ‘Moon Knight’ was a groundbreaking series for Marvel, delving into themes of mental health, identity, and the supernatural.
The direction and the performances of Oscar Isaac and Ethan Hawke contributed to the series’ success. So, Diab talking about wanting to return isn’t surprising.
Mohamed Diab Believes Nothing Is Ever Finished With Marvel
While ‘Moon Knight’ has concluded, Mohamed Diab remains open to returning to the world of Marc Spector and Steven Grant. “Working on Moon Knight was amazing, but Hollywood can be harsh. We get offers every day, but you have to do something better,” Diab told Deadline.
“I don’t mind a clean slate. I don’t mind if I only work every five years, as long as I’m doing something better at the next step,” he added. When asked about the possibility of continuing the show’s story or working on another Marvel project, Diab expressed his enthusiasm.
“You never know – with Marvel, nothing is called finished. There could be a film, or he could go into another universe,” he said. Diab revealed that he would love to return for the series if Marvel decided on a revival.
Moreover, his comments suggest that the door is open for more ‘Moon Knight’ adventures. Whether it’s a second season, a spin-off series, or a film, the character’s complex mythology and rich lore provide ample opportunities for future storytelling.
How Did The ‘Moon Knight’ End?
The finale of ‘Moon Knight’ was a thrilling conclusion to a groundbreaking series. Marc Specto faced his ultimate challenge against Arthur Harrow. A key moment in the finale was the emergence of Layla El-Faouly as the Scarlet Scarab.
Empowered by the Egyptian goddess Taweret, Layla gained superhuman abilities, allowing her to fight alongside Moon Knight. This development not only showcased Layla’s strength and courage but also expanded MCU’s roster of powerful heroes.

Moreover, the series also delved into the complex nature of Marc Spector’s multiple identities. It introduced Jake Lockley, a mysterious third personality. Lockley, a ruthless assassin, played a crucial role in the fight against Ammit and her followers.

However, through the power of the Egyptian gods, Marc and Steven were able to return from the afterlife, united as one.
Their return from the afterlife left fans with a sense of hope and anticipation for the future of the character. With the introduction of new characters and the exploration of ancient Egyptian mythology, the series opened up exciting possibilities for future stories. So, it wouldn’t be surprising if the show gets a season 2.
