If You Thought MOON KNIGHT Episode 4 Was Surprising, Just Wait and See What's in Store for the Final Two Episodes
Moon Knight Episode 4 delivered some weird and interesting surprises, and it’s been interesting to see the reaction from the fans. They’re pretty mixed as some fans like where the show has taken them, while others are saying that Episode 4 is the worst one so far.
I’m personally enjoying the ride! I think the series has been fun, and if you were surprised by what the last episode delivered, just wait until you see what the creative team has in store for the final two episodes.
Moon Knight directors Aaron Moorhead and Justin Benson recently spoke to EW and in that interview, they teased that the final two episodes are going to surprise fans again. Moorhead said:
"I think if you were surprised by episode 4, get ready to be surprised again by episodes 5 and 6. I know it just sounds like a nice little tag, but I promise you that's actually the case."
I wonder how much weirder this show can get! The fourth episode definitely changed the trajectory of the series and it’s going to be interesting to see what the ramifications of that will be. When talking about the last episode Moorhead when on to say:
"The end of episode 4 is actually a gift of the script. It came from wanting to do the least expected thing and completely disorient the audience, while also being completely true to the character that we've built over four episodes. Also the comic book character: There's a run of Moon Knight written by Jeff Lemire, and [Greg] Smallwood did the art, and it has a lot of similar feelings and visuals to what happens at the end of episode 4. So we're really glad to be able to honor the original comics, the ones that we were the most drawn to when we were trying to crack Moon Knight. That's where the inspiration came from, especially visually and tonally."
This series is delivering some pretty wild stuff, and I guess we should prepare ourselves for the madness that is coming in the next couple of episodes.
What are your thoughts on the series so far? Did you enjoy the last episode?
