Oscar Isaac Explains What Convinced Him to Do Moon Knight Series

Oscar Isaac has starred in a comic book film before in X-Men: Apocalypse, but in a recent interview he explained why he is enjoying his work on Moon Knight much more. Isaac spoke with Total Film (per GamesRadar) and talked about playing the titular role in the upcoming Disney+ MCU film after being open about how X-Men: Apocalypse was not his favorite film to work on. You can check out some highlights below:

Oscar Isaac on how filming has been going: “Wonderful. Every morning, the alarm goes off, and I can’t wait to get to work. We’re having such a great time on this thing.”

On returning to comic book films after his bad experience on X-Men: Apocalypse: “It’s not so much about the genre of things. It’s the people. And is there room to do something interesting in it? And sometimes there is, and you think there will be. And sometimes it turns out there isn’t. So with this – I love the people involved. I thought there was an incredibly unusual story to tell within the world of, you know, the superhero language. But we’re making something that’s quite different, and that doesn’t follow the same… not necessarily even logic of what a lot of superhero films do. I think because of that, I just found an opportunity to do something that I’ve not done at all yet, and to have a lot of creative collaboration with the rest of the people making it.”
