Death of Gaspard Ulliel: the actor plays a key supporting role in "Moon Knight", a Marvel series broadcast at the end of March

This American fantasy series from the Marvel universe will be launched on Disney+ on March 30. Gaspard Ulliel plays the role of a supervillain


It is not so much his role as a serial killer in "Hannibal Lecter: the origins of evil", in 2007, as that in "Saint Laurent" by Bertrand Bonello, in 2014, which had launched the career of Gaspard Ulliel.

Unlike France, where this film had suffered from competition with “Yves Saint Laurent” by Jalil Lespert, released the same year, the interpretation of the couturier by the young actor had thrilled the whole world, especially the Americans.

And a decisive step was to be taken on March 30, with the start of the broadcast on Disney + of the Marvel series "Moon Knight", in which Gaspard Ulliel plays an essential supporting role, opposite Oscar Isaac, who plays the role- title.

If the French actor does not appear in the only trailer for the series available to date, he appears in third position in the credits alongside Ethan Hawke. And we know that he plays a super villain there, with a double surname – like many characters in the series – of Anton Mogart/Midnight Man. Because "Moon Knight" takes place in two parallel universes. In the first, anonymous gift shop clerk Steve Grant begins to have bizarre visions. He will discover that he suffers from a split personality, and that his other him is called Marc Spector, alias Moon Knight (the knight of the moon), executor of the vengeance of a god from Egyptian mythology.

In the comics from which the series is adapted, Moon Knight faces in the two universes Midnight Man, the character assigned to Gaspard Ulliel, mysterious and extremely wealthy thief, who always acts masked and dressed in a cape when he takes on the appearance of a supervillain.

Midnight Man doesn't have any superpowers, but he's very skilled at shooting and fighting with edged weapons.

Disney +, which had just launched the promotion of the series, had so far only mentioned the hero played by Oscar Isaac.

The death of the French actor will undoubtedly change the way in which the platform will communicate in our country on this new fiction.
