Marvel Studios presents Wonder Man, a bold new miniseries arriving on Disney+ in December 2025. Starring Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as Simon Williams, the series follows a down-on-his-luck actor and stuntman in Los Angeles whose life takes an extraordinary turn when he unexpectedly gains superhuman abilities—becoming the reluctant hero known as Wonder Man.

Set in the heart of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Wonder Man offers a sharp, satirical look at celebrity culture and heroism in a world where super-powered individuals walk among us. As Simon juggles fame, identity, and responsibility, he finds himself caught between the glamorous illusions of Hollywood and the very real dangers of being a public superhero.

At the core of the story is Simon’s strained relationship with his brother, Eric Williams—better known as the Grim Reaper—played by Demetrius Grosse. Their fractured bond and opposing moral paths add a powerful emotional weight to the series.

Ben Kingsley returns as Trevor Slattery, the washed-up actor from Iron Man 3 and Shang-Chi, bringing his signature blend of humor and meta-commentary on performance and persona.

Blending action, comedy, and deeply personal storytelling, Wonder Man stands apart as a unique addition to the MCU—one that explores what it really means to be seen, to be heroic, and to stay true to yourself when the cameras stop rolling.
