Moon Knight season 1 episode 1 release time on Disney Plus (by time zone)

A new era is about to begin on Disney Plus! After a string of Marvel projects inspired heavily by the events from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the MCU is expanding once again with the introduction of a brand new hero.

Unlike past MCU series, Moon Knight will introduce viewers to a brand new corner of the MCU in a series that is truly unlike anything we’ve seen from Marvel thus far.

After years of anticipation, Moon Knight’s journey is about to finally begin as Disney Plus prepares to debut the first episode in the six-episode series. Wondering what to expect from episode 1 and when you can catch the first episode of Moon Knight on Disney Plus?

Below we share the episode information and when you can expect Moon Knight season 1 episode 1 to arrive on Disney Plus in your neck of the woods!

What is Moon Knight episode 1 about?

As you might expect, the first episode of Moon Knight is designed to introduce viewers to the key characters in the series including Steven Grant and Marc Spector, two very different men who just so happen to share the same body via dissociative identity disorder.

How will their story begin and just how will Steven and Marc come to be Moon Knight? We’ll have to tune in to find out, but here is how Disney Plus describes the first episode of Moon Knight season 1:

"When Steven Grant, a mild-mannered gift-shop employee, becomes plagued with blackouts and memories of another life, he discovers he has dissociative identity disorder and shares a body with mercenary Marc Spector. As Steven/Marc’s enemies converge upon them, they must navigate their complex identities while thrust into a deadly mystery among the powerful gods of Egypt."
