Marvel Studios is assembling a team of writers for its highly anticipated “Moon Knight” TV series which aims to begin production later this year.
Jeremy Slater will be serving as showrunner with Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige executive producing. A recent addition to the group of writers involved was Beau DeMayo (“The Witcher”) who recently spoke about his hiring.
Understandably DeMayo can’t anything much about the show, but he tells ComicBook.com that he loves his new gig and from the sounds of it the right people are involved:
“He [Moon Knight] has a rich legacy that’s for sure. All I can really say is, one, Jeremy Slater is a frigging badass. He’s so smart. He is a great, awesome guy to work for. And then, I know it sounds like pandering but it is so true that, as a fan coming into Marvel, it is so amazing to see the…we’ve heard it before with Kevin and everybody’s just…They do really care.
It is amazing to sit in a place where you can tell that everybody is a fan and everybody wants to deliver the best quality, the best product. And I think the vision that Kevin had and the vision Jeremy’s had, I can’t say what it is but I think people will really dig it. I know just as a fan, when they told me the take, I was just like, ‘Oh s–t, I want to watch that.'”
No casting for the series has been announced at this time.
