Marvel Entertainment Announces Moon Knight TV Series

Marvel has announced a deal with No Equal Entertainment to create Marvel’s character Moon Knight as a television series.

My good friend Andy over at GamersCircle.net has posted a notice about one of my favorite Marvel Comics characters…

Moon Knight is a semi successful vigilante/Super-hero comic book series.  Marvel has announced a deal with No Equal Entertainment to make Moon Knight into a TV series. No air date has been revealed.

For those of you who don’t know who Moon Knight (Mark Spector) is he’s a vigilante dressed in a all white costume who was given a second chance for life by the egyptian god Khonshu. In return he is to become Khonshus avatar on earth. Spector then decided to become Moon Knight and fight crime. He has multiple secret identities including rich entrepreneur Steven Grant, using this identity to purchase a spacious estate and a taxicab driver Jake Lockley, which he uses to stay in contact with common people.

Marvel’s Thor On The Big Screen

Vaughn Talks Thor:

Matthew Vaughn, who will direct a film version of Marvel Comics’ Thor, told Empire Online that his version will have a comic-book sensibility.

“My only concern initially was that it’’s another fantasy film [after Vaughn's last movie, Stardust], but it’s different in the sense that it’s a superhero film set in the world of fantasy,” Vaughn told the site.

Vaughn added: “You’ve got Thor and Odin, and it’s set in Asgard. It’s not going to be like Lord of the Rings or even Narnia. I think it’s important to keep it comic-book. We’re not doing the Thor of Norse mythology. We’re doing the Marvel Thor.”

But one thing is certain, Vaughn added. “They actually said to me, ‘You are going to make Thor more macho? Right?’ Well, don’t worry: Thor’s not going to be wearing a dress.”
