What Is Wonder Man About?

Not much is known about the MCU’s take on Wonder Man, but the series is, of course, set to focus on Simon Williams. In the comics, Simon is a popular actor who is imbued with a wide array of superpowers including flight, superhuman strength, and the ability to control ionic energy.

Also starring in the Disney+ series is Hollywood veteran Ed Harris, who will play Williams’ agent. And Demetrius Grosse, who will bring to life Simon’s evil brother Eric, otherwise known as the Grim Reaper.

Ben Kingsley will also reprise his Iron Man 3 and Shang-Chi role of Trevor Slattery and famed German documentarian Werner Herzog is even rumored to be in the running for a part in the show.

As for the tone of the series, it‘s expected to be somewhat comedic since it reportedly takes the form of a Hollywood satire.

Marvel Studios’ Wonder Man doesn’t yet have a release date attached to it, but with filming having begun it could premiere sometime in 2024 or 2025.
