The first trailer for Wonder Man (2025) introduces Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as Simon Williams, also known as Wonder Man, a superhero with incredible strength and a complicated history. The trailer kicks off with an energetic montage of Hollywood, highlighting Simon’s journey as a struggling actor-turned-superhero. His voiceover reflects on themes of identity and power: “I’ve been living in the shadows, trying to find my place. But in this world, you either make your own name… or become a pawn in someone else’s game.”

Next, the trailer delves into Simon’s origins, revealing him as the heir to the tech giant Williams Innovations. As his family business crumbles in the face of Stark Industries’ success, Simon’s thirst for vengeance grows. Quick flashbacks depict his dire financial struggles, ultimately leading him to Baron Zemo (portrayed by Daniel Brühl), who lures him into a sinister plot against the Avengers.

Through Zemo’s experiments, Simon gains ionic energy, endowing him with remarkable strength, invulnerability, and the power of flight. Initially, he is a pawn in Zemo’s scheme, battling against the Avengers in explosive fight sequences that showcase his newfound abilities. The trailer hints at Simon’s internal conflict as he becomes aware of Zemo’s manipulation.

As the narrative progresses, Wonder Man starts to rebel against Zemo and seek redemption. A brief appearance of Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen) teases a potential romantic connection and ties to the broader Marvel Cinematic Universe.

As Wonder Man navigates his powers and grapples with his identity, he embarks on a path toward becoming a true hero. The action intensifies with thrilling shots of him soaring through the city, battling Zemo’s forces, and confronting his tumultuous past.
