Ethan Hawke says that his Moon Knight character is inspired by David Koresh. The revelation came last night on Late Night with Seth Myers as they discussed the upcoming Disney+ series. His role in the MCU show has been tightly guarded since his casting was announced. Koresh was a cult leader who led the Branch Davidian cult before all of that got blown up by the federal government. But, some fans are wondering how this might forecast which Moon Knight villain he could be playing. There’s been pointing towards Dracula, The Sun King, and Khonshu. Any of these entries could fit with a little bit of tinkering. Still, it’s a bit interesting to see the idea of a cult-like leader battling against Oscar Isaac’s hero. The MCU is barreling toward some more cosmic, horror, and magic-styled threats with this phase of their production. The very existence of that Blade movie with Mahershala Ali has a bunch of people’s antennae raised in anticipation. Check out what the star had to say about the long-haired villain down below:
