In a recent press release, Moon Knight executive producer Grant Curtis revealed the series will not be attached to the current MCU storylines.
The executive producer described the great excitement inside Marvel Studios to introduce Moon Knight viewers. Grant Curtis says the show will take the MCU to “its Iron Man and Tony Stark roots” in building a new hero “from the ground up” once again.
“We’re absolutely embracing the supernatural aspects of what was in publishing, the Egyptian gods, this ruthless Egyptian god Khonshu that manipulates Marc to do his bidding. We’re embracing all that. We love stuff that goes bump in the night. There’s no attachment to the current MCU. He’s brand-new, and he is going on a brand-new adventure. We really think the fans are going to enjoy it.”
