WONDER MAN




New Marvel Studios' television series WONDER MAN debuted a new trailer and poster image at New York Comic Con (but not before a 1-minuter teaser primed the viewers / above embed), for all 8-episodes to premiere January 27, 2026 (6PM PT) on DisneyPlus.



Honestly, the "Ai-looking" movie flashback sequence is an intriguing add, but that's just me. And as for a relatively lesser known character in the Marvel-sphere (at least in live action), it would be interesting to see what something / someone without a huge backstory in comics-source be able to capture my viewing interest, moving forward, IMHO.

Yahya Abdul-Mateen II is "Simon Williams", and Sir Ben Kingsley returns to his role of "Trevor Slattery" ("Mandarin" in Iron Man, also seen in "Shang-Chi"). We first seen clips of the project in teaser featured below:



“Aspiring Hollywood actor Simon Williams is struggling to get his career off the ground. During a chance meeting with Trevor Slattery, an actor whose biggest roles may be well behind him, Simon learns legendary director Von Kovak is remaking the superhero film “Wonder Man.” These two actors at opposite ends of their careers doggedly pursue life-changing roles in this film as audiences get a peek behind the curtain of the entertainment industry.”






WHO-IS: Wonder Man (Simon Williams) is a character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. Created by writer Stan Lee and artists Don Heck and Jack Kirby, he first appeared in The Avengers #9 (October 1964). The character, who was initially introduced as a supervillain imbued with "ionic" energy, fought the Avengers, and, after a series of events, was reborn as a superhero, joining the team against which he originally fought..
