00:00Welcome back everyone it is Amelia I hope you are fine.

00:09The perfect villain for Marvel Studios' potential Moon Knight season 2 in the MCU may have already

00:15been set up in the series' first season.

00:17Moon Knight premiered on Disney Plus in March 2022 and introduced audiences to Oscar Isaac's

00:23Mark Spector, a mercenary with dissociative identity disorder who also happens to be the

00:29host of the Egyptian God of the Moon, Khoshu.

00:31Khoshu grants Spector impressive abilities as the vigilant Moon Knight and these helped

00:36Spector take on Ethan Hawke's Arthur Harrow during Phase 4's Moon Knight but the series

00:41left the future of Mark Spector and his alters uncertain.

00:45In March 2024, Marvel Studios revealed that Moon Knight's complete first season will be

00:51released on 4K UHD and Blu-ray, with this wording suggesting that there may be a Moon

00:56Knight season 2 in the works.

00:58There hasn't yet been any official confirmation from Marvel Studios but potential storylines

01:03for Moon Knight season 2 have already been set up.

01:06Most notably, Phase 4's Moon Knight ended with the mysterious Jake Lockley, Spector's

01:11third alter, assassinating Arthur Harrow and Amit, setting himself up as a potential villain

01:17for Moon Knight season 2.

01:18But another powerful adversary might have also been teased.

01:21One of Moon Knight's most persistent adversaries in Marvel Comics is Shadow Knight, the alter

01:26ego of Mark Spector's estranged brother, Randall.

01:30Randall Spector was originally introduced in 1979's Hulk magazine No. 17 as a hatchet-wielding

01:36serial killer whom Moon Knight battles following a string of killings aimed at nurses.

01:41Moon Knight and Randall's hatchet-men duel in Central Park with this part ending in Randall's

01:46apparent demise.

01:47However, Marvel later revealed this version of Randall to be an imposter with implanted

01:52memories as the real Randall Spector arrived in 1992's Mark Spector, Moon Knight No. 37

01:59with similar abilities to his brother.

02:01Randall Spector mysteriously returned as the evil Shadow Knight, a member of the cult of

02:05Koshu who believed himself to be the next avatar to the titular Egyptian deity.

02:10Randall had become empowered by the Egyptian princess Nephthys, gifting him impenetrable

02:15skin and superhuman strength, and allowing him to fire radioactive blasts from his eyes.

02:21This made him a more significant threat to Mark Spector's Moon Knight, though the powerful

02:25Sapphire Crescent helped Mark defeat his brother.

02:28Shadow Knight would make a fantastic villain for Moon Knight's season 2.

02:32Many of the villains featured in previous Marvel Studios projects have been dark opposites

02:37of the MCU's superheroes.

02:39This includes The Abomination, The Red Skull, Kaecilius and Killmonger.

02:43And Shadow Knight fits this brief perfectly for Moon Knight.

02:46Forging the long-thoughted Randall Spector into a supervillain would also bring a more

02:51personal, grounded narrative to Mark Spector's MCU story, similarly to Thor's long-running

02:56feud with Loki.

02:58Which would not only help to better explain Koshu and the Egyptian pantheon, but also

03:03delve deeper into Mark's own side, and make Moon Knight's season 2 even more powerful

03:07than the original season.
