Of all of Marvel’s offerings across film and television last year, arguably none were more memorable than Werewolf by Night, the fifty-minute “special presentation” the company released just in time for Halloween. Directed by Oscar-winning composer Michael Giacchino and starring Gael García Bernal, the special followed Jack Russell, a man with a lycanthropic secret who infiltrated a group of monster hunters in an attempt to rescue his friend. Naturally, the new format featured Marvel’s familiar brand of action, but this time blended with a black-and-white, Old Hollywood approach to introducing one of their most monstrous heroes, who quickly went on to become a fan favorite.
Fans are now clamoring to see more of Jack Russell — and his new ally, Elsa Bloodstone, played by Laura Donnelly — in the MCU, especially if it means coming face to face with his comics ally, Moon Knight, who received a series of his own last year. No further adventures for the werewolf have been confirmed yet, but it seems that fans are not the only ones who’d like to see more.
Speaking to Collider’s own Perri Nemiroff at the 2023 Sundance Film Festival to promote his new film, Cassandro, Bernal revealed that he’s eager to see more of Werewolf by Night himself.
