Here’s everything you need to know about the character before you catch Moon Knight on Disney+ Hotstar in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, and Malayalam from March 30th.

 

Who is Moon Knight?

 

Granted with Egyptian God, Khonshu’s ceremonial armour given to all of the God’s warriors through the centuries, Moon Knight is a vigilante who carries out his vengeance on earth. He has taken on Khonshu’s earthly avatar and his fist of vengeance. Moon Knight was granted his special powers by the Egyptian God of the Moon and the self-appointed God of Vengeance, Khonshu.  Moon Knight fights all perceived injustices as he carries out Khonshu’s orders and delivers vengeance on Earth.

As Steven/Marc’s enemies converge upon them, they must navigate their complex identities while thrust into a deadly mystery among the powerful gods of Egypt.
