According to a new report from Murphy’s Multiverse, Marvel Studios’ upcoming Disney Plus series Moon Knight will film in the UK.

Charles Murphy reports that while no official start date has been announced for Moon Knight, it can be deduced that the upcoming Disney Plus series could begin production sometime between Marvel Studios’ upcoming films The Eternals and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. 

Ms. Marvel, another one of Marvel Studios’ upcoming Disney Plus series will reportedly begin shooting in April 2020, and Moon Knight is expected to begin production in the first half of the coming year. According to Charles Murphy, filming in UK’s Pinewood will allow easier access to international locations such as Egypt, which plays a pivotal role in the titular hero’s origins.

In the comics, Marc Spector, a.k.a. Moon Knight, was a CIA agent turned mercenary where he made millions. His wealth from being a mercenary and investments land him anywhere between $50 million to $3 billion in net worth, granting him a suave Bruce Wayne-style life. Yet during his last mercenary job in Cairo, Spector was left for dead by a former colleague.

Spector dragged himself through the sands of the desert to the tomb of Konshu, the Egyptian moon god. There he was pronounced dead but resurrected at the hands of Konshu. The resurrection took a toll, however, as he developed multiple personality disorder. When he returned to New York, he created two new personalities, Steven Grant, and Jake Lockley. Grant was the millionaire womanizer, while Lockley was a cab driver.

It was after developing his other personalities when he took on the mantle of Moon Knight. Konshu granted Spector with increased physical capabilities and periodic prophetic visions at night; yet even Spector himself was unsure whether Konshu was yet another personality of his own creation. Even still, Moon Knight operates with an arsenal of technology, vehicles and costumes to suit his needs.
