19. Moon Knight

Release: TBC

Allegedly originally intended to be part of Jeph Loeb's supernatural enclave of shows on Hulu - which would also have included Blade and Ghost Rider if his plans had gone through - Moon Knight is easily one of the least known characters (in mainstream terms) of all of the new crop.

Those who know him, know he's great, but there's so little information about the Disney+ show so far that it's hard to really give shape to the excitement. And somewhat worryingly, there was a suggestion that the show would be exploring the traditional backstory of Moon Knight - that he's a mercenary who ends up imbued with the powers of a God in exchange for his life being saved - but from an angle of exploring whether it happened or if he's mentally ill. Yikes. Let that not be the case please.

He's a great character and a great addition to Disney+ but for now, we just don't know enough.
