MOON KNIGHT: Marvel Studios Reportedly Looking To Cast "A Jewish Zac Efron-Type" To Play Marc Spector

We don't know exactly when Moon Knight is set to arrive on Disney+ but it sounds like Marvel Studios is already looking to cast the unhinged vigilante. Find out more about who they're looking for here...

According to a new report from GWW (who have shared a fair bit of accurate information in recent months), Marvel Studios has an idea in mind about what they want from Moon Knight's lead.

Apparently, they want an actor who is preferably of Israeli descent and a "Jewish 'Zac Efron-type'" is reportedly the prototype they're looking for. Whether that means Efron is in the running is hard to say but it's worth noting that he was reportedly being considered for the role of Ikaris in Eternals before than ultimately went to Richard Madden. 

It's fair to say that most comic book fans probably aren't aware of Marc Spector's Jewish background but he is the son of a Rabbi and he hasn't always been an unhinged, murderous vigilante! 

Here's another very interesting piece of information from the report, though; apparently, with Marvel Television now winding down, Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige is considering rebooting the Inhumans for Ms. Marvel, something which makes sense considering Kamala Khan's origin story and the potential that Black Bolt and company have despite that failed TV series. 

Who do you think would be a good choice to suit up as Moon Knight?

What does it matter what religion an actor has?

@X75 - Jewish can refer to a religion or an ethnicity.
