Well, the list of
distinguished actors attached to this project has just gone up by one.
As shared by the
Hollywood Reporter, Ethan Hawke, from, uh, a lot of amazing things, has been
chosen to play the main villain in Disney Plus’s upcoming Moon Knight series. The series, about which
little is known other than the (mostly confirmed) rumor that Oscar Isaac is
playing the starring role, is an adaptation of the Marvel comic of the same
name, featuring the eponymous anti-hero.
Who does that mean
Ethan Hawke is playing, exactly? Unknown, though the big Moon Knight-exclusive
baddie is normally a treasure seeker named Bushman. Though, considering how
eclectic the character’s history is, it really is hard to say.

This will be Ethan
Hawke’s first superhero-adjacent role, and while it’s not exactly Boyhood, he’ll likely bring a lot of humanity
and gravitas to the role.
Moon Knight is
expected to begin shooting in March, in Budapest.
