The Arab-European actress Dina Shihabi is potentially up for an undisclosed role in Marvel’s Moon Knight series led by Oscar Isaac as Marc Spector.
Shihabi is mainly known from television appearing on Amazon’s “Jack Ryan” series, Season 2 of the Netflix’s cyberpunk series “Altered Carbon”, and Netflix’s “Daredevil” series as Neda Kazemi. She recently worked on the Netflix series “Archive 81” produced by James Wan’s Atomic Monster. The role is not confirmed yet, and its not clear what character she might play.
Directors Mohamed Diab, Justin Benson, and Aaron Moorhead are behind the new Marvel series with actors Ethan Hawke and May Calamawy nabbing key roles, and Oscar Isaac as Marc Spector in “Moon Knight.”
The show’s producing team includes Grant Curtis, Tommy Turtle and Jeremy Slater. Filming is underway in Budapest with the United Kingdom confirmed as a second filming location and Jordan also being eyed, the latter location was previously used in Oscar’s big studio sci-fi films “Dune” and “Star Wars.”
Marvel is aiming to debut “Moon Knight” on Disney+ in the first half of 2022 and has been confirmed by Kevin Feige to have a 6-episode season.
