The action sequence in the final episode of Marvel's MoonKnight was altered to feature more of Cairo, according to director Mohamed Diab.
Moon Knight had an alternate ending planned, according to the director of the final episode of the series, Mohamed Diab. Moon Knight introduces Marc Spector , a man with dissociative identity disorder, to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. While Marc and one of his alters, Steven Grant, work to understand each other, they are caught up in a conflict surrounding the ancient Egyptian gods.
The overarching threat of Moon Knight is Harrow and his quest to free Ammit, but Marc and Steven’s struggle to share one body is also integral to the plot. This internal struggle brings them to a variety of locations throughout the series. Originally beginning in London, Moon Knight eventually shifts to Cairo in Egypt when Marc/Steven follow Harrow there. Although gods are nothing new to the MCU, Moon Knight features the first references to the Egyptian gods.
“I remember that the way the whole action sequence at the end was written was completely inside the chamber of the gods, everything… And I just thought, ‘No, we want to see Cairo at night.’ I want to see something outside and it kept developing again. Everyone is chipping in. Everyone is chipping in. So, it’s very hard to take credit unless I remember. So, I don’t remember, but I love it.
Considering how prevalent Egyptian culture is in Moon Knight, Diab’s decision to show audiences more of Cairo makes sense. The chamber of the gods is an important location to Moon Knight and is still featured in the finale, but moving outside into Cairo proper allows the scope of the series’ final showdowns to be even more epic while also continuing with the show’s commitment to authenticity.
With Moon Knight’s six-episode run complete and no season two yet announced, it’s not clear if or when the MCU will head back to Egypt with Marc/Steven in tow. However, Moon Knight’s post-credit scene featuring a third alter suggests that there’s plenty more story to be told in the world of Moon Knight. Furthermore, the finale establishes Layla as the Scarlet Scarab, an Egyptian superhero.
