The scene shows series star Oscar Isaac as the alter ego of the eponymous character, Steven Grant, as he is being tracked down by Khonshu himself.
It is an almost terrifying scene that shows this gargantuan, skeletal, figure slowly approaching Isaacs Grant in a manner that seems tremendously menacing.

The vibe of the clip perfectly showcases a series that will undoubtedly dig into the horror influences of the series, showcasing Spector’s tumultuous relationship with the deity that imbues him with the power of the vigilante; while the fear of the unknown is front and center of the series.
The early reactions have pointed to the newest MCU series being one of the most unique projects from Marvel Studios, with its themes, narrative, and style placing it outside of the norm of what fans expect from the studio.

If the clip is any indication, there is no doubt that it will be a series that leans into the scarier side of the character, with the violence and mature subject matter in the story of Marc Spector standing on its own among the various MCU projects.
