Wonder Man (2026)

Simon and Trevor, two actors at opposite ends of their careers, chase life-changing roles.

Meta Marvel: Wonder Man is a superhero series that is also a satire of Hollywood and the entertainment industry, blending superhero tropes with a behind-the-scenes look at movie-making. The show follows Simon Williams, an actor who gains superpowers while trying to land the lead role in a Wonder Man movie remake.
Slattery's Backstage Pass: Ben Kingsley reprises his role as Trevor Slattery, the "one-time Mandarin," and plays a significant part in Simon's journey. Slattery mentors Simon in the acting world, creating an unlikely alliance between the struggling actor and the veteran performer.
Avengers Assemble (on a Mood Board): Keep an eye out for Easter eggs! The trailer features a mood board with images of Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, and Black Panther, hinting at the wider MCU connections and inspirations within the show's fictional movie production.
From Villain to Avenger… Maybe?: In the comics, Wonder Man's powers were initially given to him by Baron Zemo, and he started as a villain. The series might explore a different origin story for Simon's powers within the MCU, potentially linking him to Wanda Maximoff and the events of WandaVision.
Delayed Debut: Wonder Man's release was pushed back from December 2025 to January 2026 to avoid competing with holiday programming. Kevin Feige expressed concern that the delay might make the show seem derivative of other Hollywood satire series, even though Wonder Man was conceived first.
