One of the upcoming new shows from Marvel Studios for Disney+ is Moon Knight, and according to a new rumor, we may know who the villain of the series is going to be.
The rumor states that a reliable source claims that one of the villains set to appear in Moon Knight will be Stained Glass Scarlet. It is unknown if she will serve as the primary villain of the series, but the source expects that she will appear in Moon Knight.
Stained Glass Scarlet is a villain who first appeared in Moon Knight comics in issue #14. The character is a former nun that has a psychic connection with Marc Spector/Moon Knight and through dreams, can enter his mind.
It remains unknown whether or not Stained Glass Scarlet will serve as the main antagonist of the series or if she is just one of multiple villains to appear.
Moon Knight is one of several upcoming Marvel Studios series set to stream exclusively on Disney+. The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, WandaVision, Loki, Hawkeye, What If…?, Ms. Marvel and She-Hulk are also in development for the streaming service.
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.
