Ethan Hawke is a supremely chill man. A lot in order that he’ll reply Moon Knight theories on TV with out breaking a sweat. Not dangerous for an actor who’s largely averted blockbuster movies all through his decades-long profession. The First Reformed actor lately stopped by The Tonight Present Starring Jimmy Fallon, to speak in regards to the upcoming MCU sequence. And since this can be a Marvel venture, there are an entire lot of theories floating round. So naturally, Fallon determined to run a number of Moon Knight theories by Hawke. And his responses to mentioned theories are each considerate and hilarious.
(The section begins across the six-minute mark.) Fallon asks Hawke for his response to a trio of theories, together with whether or not Hulk or Blade will seem. And, in fact, whether or not his character, Arthur Harrow, is definitely Dracula. Hawke doesn’t blink when taking pictures down a principle or jokingly confirming one other.
It’s charming to see Hawke look so nonchalant when answering questions on Moon Knight. Perhaps the suave blue swimsuit serves as a confidence enhance. However frankly, Hawke strolls onto each speak present with the identical vitality. There’s a whole lot of strain for the MCU stars to maintain their initiatives and any associated spoilers on lock. And some are higher than others—famously so. Nevertheless it’s good to see the MCU and its most likely iron-clad NDAs not fazing Ethan Hawke within the slightest.
Whereas he’s dabbled in larger funds movies over the course of his decades-long profession, Hawke’s largely gravitated in the direction of indie films. (And is at all times good in them.) It’s what made it so stunning when he determined to hitch the largest franchise on the globe. However for Hawke, all of it got here right down to Oscar Isaac—actually.
The Actuality Bites star shared that he ran into Isaac whereas getting espresso together with his daughter, Stranger Issues‘ Maya Hawke. From there, the deal got here collectively in a single day. Isaac advised him in regards to the Moon Knight half and requested if Hawke wished to be the villain. By the top of the day, Kevin Feige formally supplied him the function. How informal.
Understanding that Isaac’s ardour for Moon Knight satisfied Hawke to hitch with out studying a script positively has us excited to see the pair face off. The sequence debuts on Disney+ on March 30.
