Marvel’s MOON KNIGHT to feature Music by Composer Hesham Nazih
Hesham Nazih has composed original music for Marvel’s upcoming Disney+ original series MOON KNIGHT. Nazih is an award winning Egyptian music composer and one of the most talented and famous composers in the Middle East. MOON KNIGHT marks the first major English language project of the composer. He started his career in 1992, composing the scores of very famous and successful films, including HYSTERIA, TITO, and ELFEEL EL AZRAQ (The Blue Elephant). It has not been confirmed yet whether Nazih is composing the score for all six episodes, but his contribution is believed to be a major part of the show’s music.
Disney’s official summary described Moon Knight as a “new globe-trotting action-adventure series featuring a complex vigilante suffering from dissociative identity disorder. The multiple identities that live within him are drawn into a deadly war of the gods against the backdrop of ancient and modern Egypt.”
The 6-part drama is directed by Mohamed Diab (AMIRA, CLASH, CAIRO 678) and Justin Benson & Aaron Moorhead (THE ENDLESS, SYNCHRONIC) and stars Oscar Isaac, Ethan Hawke and May Calamawy.
Moon Knight premieres March 30, 2022 on Disney+.
