MCU fans divided as Disney Plus series cancelled unceremoniously

With the news that the hit show Moon Knight is not set to get a second season anytime soon, fans are left feeling divided over the hero’s future.

In an exclusive interview with ComicBook, Marvel Television head Brad Winderbaum confirmed that although a second season of Moon Knight does not look likely, the hero himself will return to the MCU some time in the future.

This comes after Disney+’s Moon Knight aired back in 2022 and, despite lasting for just one season, became an instant hit for fans, mainly down to Oscar Isaac’s performance in the titular role.

Since then, viewers have been eager for more, but it seems as though Marvel has other plans for the hero outside of his own show.

“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 two, but there are plans for Moon Knight down the road.”

Although we are not yet sure what plans Marvel has for Moon Knight, the news has still left fans feeling divided and they recently took to r/marvelstudios to share their thoughts.

“I'm cool with this. I don't have a huge urge to see MK solo his villains. Let him team up or show up alongside others. That goes for just about everyone honestly,” user KevinAnniPadda shared.

However, user Downtown_Agent3323 disagreed, saying, “That really sucks because Moon Knight is one of a few Marvel shows that deserves a season two.”

Another user agreed with this and added their own take.

“Honestly, I think it needs a season two unless his next appearance is his own film,” they wrote.

“It would be good to at least cover the Mark/Steven/Jake personalities to a semi-stable narrative point (i.e. they all know wtf is going on with the other personalities) before moving forward to something like Midnight Sons. I always figured we'd get a season two focused on Mark and Steven trying to deal with Jake and Konshu before he appeared in anything else.”

Let us just hope that this cancellation will be worth it in the long run.
