Moon Knight‘s first season has come to a close in very dramatic ways. Including the revelation of a key third personality of the character. But the question is, will the story continue?
We honestly don’t know yet, but consulting producer Sarah Goher teases how this story is far from over:
“[Earl Grant’s ‘The End’ is] a song that says, ‘At the end of the story, it’s a story without an end,'” Goher noted of the song that opens Episode 6. “It feels truer to the show in a way… it’s just the continuation, and I feel like this was the right ending. This is a story that we’ve only scratched the surface of.”
“The journey is far more important than the end with this show,” Goher continued. “If you come out feeling more about the idea, more about Moon Knight and Marc Spector, and you care about him, and you care about Steven — even if you care about Jake, if you come out caring about all of these characters, this ending works. No ending could possibly capture a story like this. The ending is really a to be continued.”
Moon Knight head writer Jeremy Slater joined in to talk about the balance of the personalities and how that fuels a lot of stories going forward:
“The messiness of that — how do you share a life, and a body, and a shared set of memories — is the engine for where the next group of Moon Knight stories could take us,” Slater said. “There’s so much fertile storytelling ground that’s still waiting to be explored in terms of, OK, well, it may be an easy decision to share this body and this life, but what does that actually look like? What does that actually mean? The goal was always, how do we get to a point of balance and integration where this person has found a way to live with his mental illness, and draw strength from it, and be empowered by it?”
When word hits of a confirmed Season 2, we’ll let you know!
