Viewers were welcomed to the compelling and compounding saga of Moon Knight last year. Marvel’s lesser-known hero Moon Knight was brought on the screen through the lens of mercenary Marc Spector played by Oscar Isaac. Though the beginning of the series left people exceedingly bonkers, it settled down in the most refreshing firmament. A lot of people who watched it have compared him to Marvel’s version of Batman. Both of them are vigilantes who mostly fight at night with secret identities and have serious emotional baggage from the past. However, the truth is far from that and this fact revealed by a fan on Twitter will tell you why.

A fan account named Shadow Knight recently shared a post that created upheaval among fans on Twitter. The user made the biggest revelation about the Moon Knight series alongside some pictures of Oscar Isaac. He stated in the tweet that this nemesis of the moon god is just another version of Spider-Man in a different universe.

No, Moon Knight and Spider-Man are not related; they just have an actor in common: Oscar Isaac. The 44-year-old came into limelight for his portrayal of Moon Knight in the Disney + Hotstar series. And on June 2nd, fans will see him essay the role of Spider-Man 2099 AKA Miguel O’Hara in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. Seeing him in the recently released trailer of the upcoming movie, Shadow Knight drew parallels between the two characters.

Marvel fans are losing minds over Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse trailer

Many fans couldn’t fathom why the trailer of Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse called the MCU Earth-199999 when fans know it as Earth-616. A few fans had a perfect explanation for that.

However, other fans went with the flow set by the original post, drawing parallels and drawing up memes on the possibility that Spider-Man and Moon Knight may be the same person.

Meanwhile, one fan was quick to put on the smart hat and point out the facts.

Another one pointed out how there is an overlap between actors voicing characters in the animated film and playing characters in MCU. 

Yet another fan felt, Isaac playing both characters is the perfect segway to the introduction of another iconic Marvel Comics character.
