"The trailer for Disney+’s Moon Knight introduces a puzzling, possibly British accent from Oscar Isaac," says Carrie Wittmer. "The accent embodies a 19th-century literature professor with a dark secret in a 1990s period drama more than a 21st-century conduit for an Egyptian god in a Marvel Cinematic Universe television series. While the accent is a bit unusual, seemingly based on nothing and stark in contrast to the trailer’s use of Kid Cudi’s 'Day ‘N’ Night' (which I never expected to hear alongside a little Oscar Isaac accent), it gives the series a unique, slightly campy twist that makes the series even more compelling than a show starring Oscar Isaac and Ethan Hawke already was. Weird, indistinguishable accents are slowly making a comeback, so much so that the actor playing the main character in an MCU property is using one. And thank god, because weird accents should be in every single thing ever made."
