The Disney+ series Moon Knight, which is poised to change the MCU even further with its season finale this Wednesday, follows the character of Marc Spector (Oscar Isaac), a mercenary turned vigilante who develops the powers of the Moon Knight after agreeing to become the avatar for the Egyptian god Khonshu (F. Murray Abraham). Spector, however, is guarding his own secret of the mind in dealing with dissociative identity disorder, in which one of his primary alters known as Steven Grant (Isaac), a mild-mannered museum shop employee, frequently takes over his body. When religious zealot and former avatar of Khonshu Arthur Harrow (Ethan Hawke) reveals his plan to resurrect the Egyptian goddess Ammit and bring chaos and destruction to the world, Marc and Steven — with the help of Marc's estranged wife Layla (May Calamawy) — must fight to stop the unthinkable from happening, even if it means going deep inside themselves to navigate the dark and buried memories of their past.
Ahead of Moon Knight's finale episode airing this week, Collider had the chance to speak to both Isaac and Calamawy about their time on the series thus far. Over the course of the interview, which you can either watch above or read below, Calamawy discussed Layla's potential to become a superhero in the MCU, and Isaac expanded on what went into crafting the physical differences between Marc and Steven in his on-screen performance. The co-stars also revealed what their own individual Moon Knight costumes would look like if they could choose for themselves.
