✖ Oh, brother! Oscar Isaac isn't the only actor playing double roles in Marvel Studios' Moon Knight. The Disney+ series stars Isaac as a superhero with dissociative identity disorder: sharing the same body are mild-mannered gift shop employee Steven Grant and mercenary Marc Spector.
"You know who really was my co-star throughout this whole thing was my brother. I had my brother, Michael Hernandez, he's an actor, as well. I had him either play Steven or Marc, depending on the scene," Isaac told TheWrap."It's the closest thing to me there is, is my little bro . So it was actually fantastic to have him there in my corner to be able to work with."
Director Mohamed Diab, who directed the six-episode event series with duo Aaron Moorhead and Justin Benson, previously revealed Isaac's initial approach to playing Steven and Marc against their respective"man in the mirror": by portraying the separate personalities on different days. "At the beginning, it wasn't clear to us who Marc is and who Steven is. Oscar at the beginning wanted only to [embody] Steven a day and Marc a day, never on the same day," Diab told Marvel.com."After a while there were a couple of scenes where he was talking in the mirror, and I told him, 'Why don't you try [both characters]?' I kept pushing him and giving him encouragement. All of a sudden, he did this magical thing.
According to Diab, Isaac began to switch between Steven and Marc so effortlessly that"when the camera is just panning all of a sudden, he's someone else. Once he's Marc, you see him getting taller. When he's Steven, he's so approachable."
