Marvel has plans to see Moon Knight return to the MCU in some form, but it sounds like a Season 2 won’t happen.
Speaking to ComicBook, Marvel Television head Brad Winderbaum said fans can expect more from Oscar Isaac’s MCU character, but not as part of a second season of the Disney+ show.
That’s because Marvel Television, the division responsible for Marvel’s TV shows, has changed direction since Moon Knight came out in 2022. Previously, Marvel planned to establish characters with their own TV shows before tie-ins with future projects. For example, Ms. Marvel introduced Kamala Khan into the MCU via the Disney+ show before she starred in The Marvels.
Now, Marvel Television is taking a more traditional TV approach, with shows that have annual releases.
“So I think Marvel Television has happened in waves, and I think Moon Knight happened in a wave of shows that were going to establish characters that would tie-in to the future,” Winderbaum explained.
“And moving forward our priorities have shifted. We’re making shows as shows that can exist as annual releases, more like television. I would love to see a Moon Knight Season 2, but there are plans for Moon Knight down the road.”

MCU’s confirmed upcoming TV show slate includes Daredevil: Born Again, out in March, Ironheart, out in June, Eyes of Wakanda, out in August, Marvel Zombies, out in October, and Wonder Man in December.
Last week, Marvel Television reportedly paused work on three shows: Nova, Strange Academy and Terror, Inc., but Winderbaum revealed the company is exploring the opportunity of reuniting the street level heroes of Daredevil, Luke Cage, Jessica Jones, and Iron Fist, better known as The Defenders.
