In the comics, Marc Spector, also known as Moon Knight, is a former US Marine who turned into a CIA agent. He left both organizations in disgrace and became a soldier of fortune.

Fans might be wondering that they already heard about the news of Isaac's casting before, it is because this has been widely speculated. However, the confirmation only came out after Marvel Studios tweeted about it.
Isaac was in talks to play the role goes all the way back to October and early January. There is no announcement on when the series will be released on Disney+.
