Moon Knight, the upcoming series which will air on Disney +, is rumored to feature Marvel’s version of the vampire known as Dracula.
The scoop was provided by Daniel Richtman and fang-baring fiend joins the likes of the Werewolf Bushman and Stained Glass Scarlett as the villains of the show.
The character of Dracula was created by Bram Stoker and he made his debut in Marvel Comics in 1972’s issue The Tomb of Dracula #1. He has evolved over the years with his most recent storyline being his uniting all the vampires of the world to wage war against the Avengers.
It has been assumed that Dracula would make his debut in the upcoming Blade movie (which stars Mahershala Ali) but there have been reports that the Moon Knight series will connect to the vampire movie so Dracula’s appearance is still a possibility.
In the comics, Marc Spector (Moon Knight) is a former CIA agent who becomes a mercenary. After being left for dead, he is resurrected at the hands of the Egyptian moon god Konshu.
His resurrection gives Spector a multiple personality disorder and returning to New York, he creates two personas – Steven Grant, the millionaire womanizer, and Jake Lockley, the cab driver.
Moon Knight hasn’t been given a release date yet. Odu News will keep fans posted when more information is released.
