MOON KNIGHT's New DARK AVENGERS - Marvel's Midnight Sons Explained
Vložit
- čas přidán 10. 04. 2022
- Marvel's Moon Knight is diving deep into the dark, supernatural world of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. And, if you look closely, you can see the MCU is maneuvering other characters for Marc Spector / Steven Grant to team up with. Blade is about to get his own movie. Werewolf by Night, a Disney + Special, and Agatha Harkness will have her own TV show,.
Throw in a couple fan favorite heroes like Ghost Rider and Morbius (...or not), and you have Marvel's Midnight Sons. The Midnight Sons are a team of supernatural anti-heroes who fight the threats that the Avengers never see. Vampires, demons, zombies--all the horror stuff. In this video we break down the membership of the Midnight Sons, who could appear in the MCU, and what villain they will face.

Who do you want to see in the Midnight Sons?
Horror , mystery , dark and doesn't feel like marvel movies recently
Decapitated Morbius head?
Lol 7 min
All I want to see is blod shed under the title "knights"
Moonknight, blade, ghostrider, black knight and wanda.
I appreciate how you started a trend among the "Easter Egg" channels of digging a bit into themes, analysis and deeper meanings of the media you scour for details. Also I appreciate that your comedy is surreal and silly -- but you're not always yelling. Finally, I appreciate your mom. Tell Doug he's a very good boy for me.
I appreciate your mom too.
I think you're skipping over Erik Voss. Screencrush was pretty surface level until about two years ago
@@jordanromesburg6819 Not forgetting about them at all, and I like both, but I respectfully see it a little differently. I think New Rockstars tends to catch a few more Easter eggs -- maybe because they have a larger staff, who knows -- and Screencrush tends to look deeper into what the films are about.
@@jordanromesburg6819 @WorldChampion I like watching both because they both find different Easter eggs and both give different interpretations of them, sometimes they’re both wrong, they’re all in all just viewers just like we are, none of them work for Disney/Marvel.
@@Swan234 I don’t tweet ... what do they complain about?
I really like these ideas. Especially Blade putting together the team after Wanda has used the Darkhold to unleash Chaos on the world causing a rise in more supernatural creatures. Maybe Doctor Strange could act as sort of an advisor to the team or someone they can go to for help on lifting spells. Dracula I think would work better as the villain for the solo Blade movie, but then they miss the opportunity to recreate the Moon Knight meme. Lilith being the Midnight Sons first enemy and leading up to Mephisto being the ultimate threat would be amazing. This team up is what I'm most excited to see in the MCU and there is so much coming, so that's saying a lot.
Dracula, that f*cking nerd! LOL
I agree with your statements but they need to cast Jensen ackles (dean Winchester in the show supernatural) even if it’s just a one-off thing
Don't get ur hopes up, don't go too high or u'll hit the ground harder
I’ve been saying this, the Midnight Sons are pretty much guaranteed to happen at this point my theory is after the Multiverse of Madness Doctor Strange will see just how vulnerable the world is to supernatural threats so he starts assembling the Midnight Sons and leaves the role of leader to Blade while he leaves to deal with Avenger level threats he supervises the Midnight Suns
Good god I hope you’re right coz that could be epic to watch come together
*Midnight Sons
Oscar Isaac’s Moon Knight, Mahershala Ali’s Blade, Gael García Bernal’s Werewolf by Night, Kit Harington’s Black Knight, Jon Bernthal’s Punisher, and Norman Reedus’ Ghost Rider forming The Midnight Sons team would be so awesome!!!
True, much as I love Nic Cage, I wanna see what Reedus could bring to the role.
I’m always kinda confused about this, why is punisher a part of this, like he’s just a dude…
@@madtitan0825 I mean Black Knight is just a dude, without the sword, he's powerless. Same with Elsa, without her bloodstone, she can't heal. Another reason is that these characters have no problem killing, they need people like that and in the comics, Punisher is one of the biggest and baddest Killers. There's also, Hannibal King, he's just a guy with guns and he's on the team, a founding member in fact.
@@theoutlawking9123 I would admit it would be pretty thrilling to see punisher gun down a couple vampires or werewolves
@@madtitan0825 Yep, but there's always Hannibal if he doesn't make it.
I want the starting Midnight Sons team to be this composition: Dr. Strange, Moon Knight, Blade, Ghost Rider (Johnny), Black Knight, Werewolf by Night, Elsa Bloodstone. Then in future films, whether it be solo projects for other characters or a Midnight Sons sequel, add the likes of Hannibal King, Daimon Hellstrom, and introduce Danny Ketch’s Ghost Rider. In regards to villains, this would be my trilogy structure:
1st: Lilith
2nd: Chthon
3rd: Mephisto
I think chton will be in doctor strange 2 since he is literally on the poster
And I think it would be cool if mephisto was the devil that cursed ghost rider
Yeah, though I loved Ryan Reynolds version of Hannibal King in Blade : Trinity, I don't think he's suppose to be the funny one. Since they probably won't add Punisher, Hannibal would be the Gunslinger/Gun guy of the team.
@Rahul nijhawan Chthon could be in the movie based off the poster, but he wouldn’t be fully dealt with after just this movie. He’s too powerful of a villain that would work really well for a Midnight Sons crossover
The OUTLAW KING Yeah Hannibal just fits the team better than Punisher anyways. I love Frank, but he IS just a normal guy at the end of the day lol. At least Hannibal actually does have physical enhancements of some kind and fits the supernatural world better
I would like to see: Moonknight, Blade, Black Knight, Morbius, and Ghost Rider with Agatha Harkness coming in as a consultant.
Morbius is owned by Sony and Agatha is a villain.
@@jamespope7669 Lmao James didn't watch the video re: Agatha. SMH
please not morbius
@@reefer674 what’s wrong with morbius?
@@RandoLePerson what about Man Thing?
I hope Blade shows up at the end of Moon Knight.
Nope
He didnt
@@vonandreimirabueno would have been cool though.
It makes the most sense to me for Blade to be bringing a team together to fight Dracula and his army, but there could easily be a twist partway through where we find out that Dracula is trying to bring back Lilith for some reason or other.
A Moon Knight and Werewolf by Night team up would be really cool!
I like the idea of Strange popping in from time to time to guide the Midnight Sons or give them missions like Charlie's Angels style but, you know, all mystical
If AoS is made Canon, it means that the Ghost Rider will have been in the MCU for a while. Note Coulson's line when Daisy talked asked how Robbie Reyes could come back.
"The previous ghost rider did"
And we know Robbie got his power from Johny Blaze, note the bike he rides and the iconic skull.
What if the reason blade is getting involved is because when thanos snapped he took out half of all “life”? Are vampires considered life? If not then that would have made a major infestation of supernatural beings.
You could be right remember that none of the eternals are dusted during the blip and they are not really a "life"
What villain should the Midnight Sons face?
@ScreenCrush hypothetically speaking if we got a trilogy of Midnight Sons films:
First: Lilith
Second: Chthon
Third: Mephisto
The Owl that eated the people inside a van in Hawkeye
Dracula would be cool!
Blade and Werewolf by Night’s enemy
Thinking a bit outside the box (never happen tnough) Dr. Doom has some magical chops. Also, since he is unlikely to be the villain in MoM, Baron Mordo is still looking to punish the MCU's magic folk.
If Blade is the Fury to the Midnight Sons, then Dr Strange is the Tony Stark. He can supply them with knowledge as well as spells and magical weapons to face their supernatural foes.
@@RandoLePerson I really dislike people like you. You don't bring anything but negativity to the world.
@@RandoLePerson what are you even talking about
Werewolf by Night is the Hulk of the team and Man-Thing is more of a Smart-Hulk lol
Your video editing is exceptional, adding in all of the small video snippets from multiple sources. It must take forever. Mad props.
omg i never seen that interview footage with the shout outs. this and that supernatural team up would be epic! its all starting to come together
I like Film Theory's idea that "Marvel Knights" will be the moniker for an R-rated MCU movie and that it'd be helmed by Moon Knight and whatever "darker" heroes the MCU intro's later like Blade; maybe the Midnight Sons!
The motivation for making blade integral is pretty obvious considering the huge success of black panther. People want black superheroes, and that’s cool.
Also would make a lot of sense to do something with Deadpool based on how successful those movies were. I do wonder how they would pull this off alongside other heroes though, given that Deadpool is shot way different than the other movies, like breaking the 4th Wall or the scenes where they prioritize his face/expressions in a sequence. He is definitely the star of his own world.
Do you have any questions?
If Marc Spector's persona dies, does khonsu gives the powers to his other personalties, or someone else completly?
@@adamm7135 His other personalities already have powers from Khonsu
@@marcelcjr9313 thanks
Your mom?
These are some great set of ideas and the edits to go along with them feel amazing!
Maybe Baron Mordo or Brother Voodoo take the place of Dr. Strange in Midnight Sons?
Great vid! Brilliant editing and really interesting keep it up!
I love your videos man been watching for a minute now I am gonna go back and like them all
Dracula does still owe moon Knight money so I see it happening...
The editing is delicious in this video!!! Thank you!!!!
That clip you showed from Justified is a phenomenal scene.
The editing.. the inside jokes, the HYPE. This one had it all. I love you, Doug. And yeah also Ryan. Thanks!!
I really hope they include Man-Thing in this team they're slowly building. There are rumours that he's getting his own Disney+ Halloween Special next year.
Now, of course it makes sense from Kevin Feige etc perspective to split the MCU heroes into the different factions you always point out (multiverse, street level and supernatural) but what are your thoughts on there being a council within the MCU that decides who takes on which threats? So like Blade, Sam and Strange maybe sit down and go "you take this, you do this" sort of stuff
Like a sort of Illuminati? Where each superhero community is represented and they discuss world threats and how they should handle them?
You forgot about cosmic/space
I appreciate your work!
Great video man.
As always a righteous vid.
Damn Morbius ain't catching a break 😂😂😂
That splice at 2:14 with Blade makes this whole presentation Bad Ass!!
Good editing on those clips. 😎
Ryan, this video was perfect for teaching this busy mom about the antiheroes the Midnight Sons. I'm so excited and will have another reason to escape to the movies!
Instead os strange recruiting them it should be Wong since he's the current Sorcerer Supreme and it'd be cool for him to show up more in the shows.
I would love that so much. Always more Wong
Yes Wong is a way cooler character in the MCU than comics his role in Shang Chi shows some of his potential as a leader
Ngl i could see this happening
Blade, Black Knight, Dr. Strange, Moon Knight. All that's missing is Ghost Rider & Punisher, c'mon!!! Also, Rather have Wanda than Hagatha, just saying.
my only hope is that Nic Cage plays Mephisto, and he is the one that gives the new Ghost Riders, his/hers powers
this is the best video I've seen here so far.
Werewolf by Night trailer was so good!!!
This sounds like it could be a multi-season TV show team-up.
This gets my hopes up for the future
it does put a smile on my face to see Agatha in the thumbnail. If any girl deserves to be on the team, it’s definitely her!
I actually really want to see an interaction between Dr. Strange and Steven/Marc/Jake! Especially after the whole "move the sky" thing. I know Stange is busy right now and can't actually use his medical degree to help Moon Knight, but he could give him some insight on tampering with powers unknown and if Strange insists on him getting psychiatric help, they'd fight! Moon knight could escape by a hair and he'd be more unstable than ever (probably, I'm not a writer).
I reaalllyy wanna see them interact
@@ellehcim2779 it would be NUTS. Stange has SUCH an ego and he'd be like "someone with such a broken mind cannot be left with this dangerous power".
Steven would go "wot mate?", Marc would say "Power??? But we're free!"
Then Jake would pop up and go "SURPRISE, YOU HYPOCRITE!!!" And then they fight in the mirror dimension and the God dimension and wherever else.
@@brrrnaner so true, that's what I think as well. It'd be so funny
Bro, Strange is a surgeon not a psychiatrist. Wdym "use his medical degree"?.
Thanks Ryan!
Moon Knight
Blade
Black knight
Ghost Rider ( Keanu Reeves or Norman Reedus works for me )
Elsa Blood Stones ( needs her own introduction)
Werewolf by Night
Since I know you love Easter eggs Ryan. Here's a early happy Easter from Dublin Ireland 🙂
Moon night impales the Jackal on a stick witch was what ancient Egyptians did yo tomb raiders that they caught back some 2,000 years ago. Great parallel and attention to detail
Video: "The Midnight Sons"
Me: Nobody's talking about the clever editing of the video...just me? Ok 👍
"the Thanos of the supernatural, Mephisto"
Didn't comic book Thanos practically curb stomp Mephisto at one point? Then again, comic book Thanos also had a bit of a different backstory, such as unrequited (and manic) love for Mistress Death.
The blade mashups with the Avengers and morbius 🤣... something i neverr knew I needed lol.
I'm so ready to see this Midnight Sons team up!
Yo this should be a pitch to Kevin Feige and his team. You’re absolutely right I would love to see this project.
2:14 The Blade edit is back lmao!!
Can't wait for more of moon knight and all these dark characters
Your theories are too accurate but I will watch this after it happens :D
Fantastic pitch!
Make it so! clap clap
Midnight sons would be great
This would be epic!!!!
Wild Opening... I want the Midnight Sons introduction like that(&))!!! 4:43
Electra !!!! Hey she is effectively undead 🧟♀️
I love the Blade videos
Dr. Strange 3 is supposed to be a rendition of Triumph and Torment. Allegedly Fiege made that clear from day one.
So now that Laura Donnelly is confirmed to be Elsa Bloodstone in Werewolf by Night, I think this is even more plausible.
As for other women for the team, I do think Agatha is likely, but I'd also love to see Nico Minoru (A.K.A. Sister Grimm) or Magik. Both have been featured on the big screen before, and after Multiverse of Madness, I think it'd be possible to bring one of them into the main MCU. I'd love a chance to see Anya Taylor-Joy bring Magik to life again on such a badass team. I wouldn't mind Clea either. I love her character. I just don't know if she'd be the best fit.
As for the men, I think Blade and Moon Knight are a must, Werewolf by Night & the Black Knight seem likely. I'd love for Ghost Rider to pop back into the MCU. I wouldn't mind Doctor Strange being involved, but I do agree that he is more of a big picture guy. Maybe he's more of a consultant.
I also think consider who would play what role on the team helps sort it because the easiest thing to double up on is sorcerers/witches so hopefully there will be less of those, and that slot almost has to go to a woman, because the men have so many of the other unique roles on the team (vampire, werewolf, mummy, knight, demon, etc.)
Great theory. I am disappointed in myself for not recognizing that Blade was playing the Nick Fury role. But I don't think a witch could be on the team and it still be the Midnight Sons. I could see Agatha as Mystical Consultant. I could imagine that Ammit gets resoructed in MoonKnight and Blade forming the Midnight Sons to send her back.
You killed it with the team. Ghost Rider and Werewolf By Night 🌙 Take my money now
I like the Dracula idea it explains why Blade would be the one gathering them and could even have some back story of Dracula always being one who got away in Blade’s years of vampire hunting. I like the lineup you proposed and mos def agree Johnny Blaze GR. Never heard of the werewolf or the chick but you make great arguments for both. Maybe even Dracula and Blade both trying to recruit the werewolf to their side
This was some masterful editing, i feel like blade is already in the MCU!
Bruh... Do you live under a rock?
include Hellstorm and Satana, Man-Thing, Living Mummy (so obvious after Moon Knight) and if we want go deeper the Darkholders would be most fitting. oh and in order to have an expected crossover with the Avengers some references to Wendigo would work
Yeah I've been thinking of Blade assembling a team just like Fury. You know, because of the Celestials film.
and then lets keep the Ben Affleck Daredevil franchise going. And maybe a sequel to the last Fantastic Four movie if we don’t all vomit to death beforehand
Blade : you think this is a sit com?
Wanda : well.. yes
I think Robbie from Agents of SHIELD would be the best to bring in. He was such a boss in that show. I'd love to see him again.
Norman Reedus enough said.
Agents of Shield is no longer canon
@@MCchizzle I was gonna say that but I didn’t want to crush him that hard lol But there’s a rumor that Norman Reedus has already been cast and/or is in talks with Marvel on becoming Johnny blaze and ghost rider for the MCU
@@jessedrew45 @MCchizzle I know. For now. But we would have said the same about daredevil a while back and now... I'm still holding out hope they will find a way to bring that show back in cannon.
Strip Marvel from Spain! Love it!
I think they'll include Agatha both for representation and because she's effing bonkers lol
Agatha is a terrible idea lol
Dudeee this will be soooo doppeeeee
man thing gotta be on the team now
Eric Voss would go crazy seeing your mention Mephisto 😂
Imagine a Dark Avengers vs Avengers🤯
Midnight sons could easily have a rotating cast, I mean even the Avengers had people pop in and out of the group as needed. Dr. Strange one day, Agatha, Wong or even Shiang Chi the next. This honestly does feel like they could actually go the Mephisto route this time considering we're actually starting to touch on godlike existences in the MCU rather than just "the big three" (Aliens, Androids or Wizards).
The only other character I think would be great (and a possible replacement for Agatha if she turns heel) depends on what exactly the Patrick Stewart appearance in Dr. Strange & MoM means for the MCU. If it means a merging of the MCU and Fox X-verse in some way, then I’d love to see more of Anya Taylor-Joy’s Magik! Not only is she a supernatural anti-hero type but her connection to hell/Mephisto is an interesting way to get her into the story. She’s a demon sorceress taught dark magic by the man himself. Plus her mutant teleportation powers are extremely useful. Her soulsword makes for a tough physical fighter. And especially for a show/movie about the dark and supernatural world like Midnight Sons her sidekick makes an interesting addition. Not Lockheed, save him for Kitty in a legit MCU X film. I’m talking about S’ym, her purple cigar chomping demon companion from her time in Limbo. In terms of strength he can totally go toe to toe with the likes of Hulk, Abomination, & Thor. So he’d be great to fill that hulk-type role on the team if they decide against using werewolf by night. Because, say what you want about The New Mutants movie but they nailed the casting for Magik and Wolfsbane. She was so good in that role: scary, sexy, sporty, posh, ginger (wait those are the Spice Girls). I meant she was scary, tough, arrogant but also vulnerable when needed she was fantastic and I’d love to see more of her as that character. Only maybe a little less blatantly racist toward her teammates.
Robbie Reyes, Gabriel Luna did the role justice. They can bring Johnny Blaze in later on a solo
Midnight Sons or not - I want to see Jon Bernthal as The Punisher again. Desperately 😍
Mah fist yo! 👊 can't wait!
Since wong is sorcerer supreme and he deals with the big ones.... i hope to see dr.strange maybe not as a team member but maybe as a consultant/help.
The Ebony Blade recruits the wielder of the Ebony Blade lol
I don’t think Agatha “turned evil”because of her mom… pretty sure she was evil to start and she was trying to play her mom
I always thought the big baddie supernatural evil doer in the MCU was squirrel girl.
This comment wins
Why can't be both? Agatha may have been "driven" to practice "evil" magic because the witches of her era forbade the study of it. I'm curious to see how she'd mesh with the magic system the MCU is crafting to see what she might be able to contribute! After all, in the comics, Agatha is a mentor for Magneto's children in their youth, whom they eventually outgrow - for good or for ill. It's some great story-fuel!
@@sydposting Agatha will never be the hero, she's 100% villain.
Daimon Hellstrom is in the MCU, he should be a member.
Honestly I would love to see all of them! I love the dark side Marvel is showing us and its fantastic!
Fewer channels have been so wrong about so much. I'm 100% behind them
I think that Dr Strange will form the Midnight Sons as an end credit scene in MoM (or have a convo with Blade about it) as a fail safe for Wanda. A group that is powerful enough to kill her and will do so no questions asked. I think that the team of Black Knight, Blade,Ghost Rider, Moon Knight, and Werewolf by Night should be joined by a grittier Iron Fist and Potentially take on Dracula in their first team up as he is someone “from Blades past” that he needs help to destroy. So there’s two motives to the team coming together. Mephisto being the villain in a Scarlet Witch stand alone movie and then the Midnight Sons vs Mephisto and Wanda with Mephisto manipulating the hell out of her.
Elsa Bloodstone is one of my favorites! I hope you’re right about that “yet!”
Really appreciate you putting black knight on the team a favorite marvel character of mine and most don’t include him
Don't forget to add Darkhold Wanda
Hellstrom kids would be a nice fit too. The series was pretty decent considering....
Mephisto is making his debut late in the Agatha Harkness series like Kang did in Loki.
Midnight Sons need to be R-rated
Facts. If it’s not R rated, I don’t want it. Hopefully Disney won’t fuck this up.
Why rated R? what is the purpose of R-rated? Just blood and cursing?
Because it adds more impact
Would you rather see them slice some people and see no blood just blood spurt sounds?
Look at Morbius
And also Venom 2
I really think if marvel is gonna do midnight sons which is like a dark team of anti heroes its gotta be rated r
Just to do justice for the story and characters
I just dont want marvel to do the same mistake sony did
This sounds awesome, but do we have any hope that Marvel can actually make a dark movie, now that they’re owned by Disney… I definitely want this to happen though :)
Disney isn’t making a dark movie, Sam Raimi is, the person responsible for influencing any dark sci-fi you’ve watched in the last decade
Disney owns the MCU lol
Go watch Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and then I think you'll be a believer that they can make a dark movie in the MCU
Agatha could be "Loki" for Midnight Sons
I like your theory and how you broke it down.. but how about subtract blood stone and add lily
The first time I heard of Blade he was in a comic with Two white guys. I think they were in that "Midnight Suns" poster you showed. I think one was a FULL vampire.
