Marvel’s first live-action Disney+ series since Ironheart, Wonder Man stars Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as Simon Williams in a Hollywood-meta buddy comedy. Ben Kingsley returns as Trevor Slattery, the infamous fake Mandarin, now pulled into Simon’s orbit as another agency takes an interest in Simon’s secret powers. Meanwhile, Simon just wants to land a role in the reboot of the childhood superhero that made him fall in love with acting.
