The Marvel Cinematic Universe has been struggling a little in the past few years. What was once an untouchable brand that delivered hit after hit effortlessly, is stuck toeing the line between creative vision, pleasing the fans, and retaining its brand identity.
The second season for both Moon Knight and She-Hulk is allegedly in development, and fans have made their opinions on the two characters known. The vibe in general seems to be favoring Moon Knight, given how well Oscar Isaac was received as the character, while there is a vehement lack of excitement for She-Hulk, bordering on dislike.
Fans want more Moon Knight, no She-Hulk
Fans have taken to social media to react to the rumor, focusing on the fact that would rather enjoy more Moon Knight content than have pump resources into a She-hulk continuation. Moon Knight reportedly delivered more content for fans to enjoy, and She-Hulk, despite introducing Daredevil into the MCU, was largely panned by fans for its CGI and bad writing.
Moon Knight yes, She-Hulk no

The fan reaction to Moon Knight still does not fail to point out issues with the show, but from the fan’s perspectives, these issues eclipse the problems that She-Hulk has with narrative, pacing, and CGI, something that has left a bad taste in the mouth of a number of fans.
Here is what Moon Knight Season 2 could look like.
If the rumors are true that Moon Knight is receiving a second season, the first season has set up quite a lot that Marc and Stephen might follow up on. For starters, Marc and Stephen are still largely unaware of the Jake Lockely aspect of their personality, still bound to the service of Khonshu, who released the other 2 members of the system from servitude after they brought Arthur Harrow to justice and sealed Ammit.
Further, there have been a lot of aspects introduced in Marvel Comics and the MCU that may make an appearance in the series. Werewolf by Night would be a great addition to the next season, given that Moon Knight first appeared as an antagonist for the monster in the pages of Marvel Comics. Another character that could be a great addition to Moon Knight Season 2, would be Hunter’s Moon, the second servant of Khonshu who takes the worship of the god much more seriously.
