'Wonder Man' recently dropped on Disney+ which wasn't exactly at the top of my list to check out, however, having done so, I can safely say that this is the best Marvel project for as long as I can remember.
It's something utterly unique and different from Marvel, straying away from capes and spectacle, and instead shifting the focus to its lead characters. Both Yayah Abdul-Mateen II and Sir Ben Kingsley are outstanding in this thing, creating a relationship and dynamic that is so infectious, you only want to see more of them. And its a credit to the writing team as well by making these characters extremely well-rounded and fleshed out.
'Wonder Man' feels like the antidote to Disney+ fatigue, Marvel burnout, and even superhero overload. It's sharp, confident and a beautifully written and performed series - and, as stated, one of Marvel’s strongest projects in years.
Full thoughts in this review.
