The new Marvel series coming to Disney+ is playing with the idea of stories within stories. It stars Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as Simon Williams, an actor who dreams of portraying a superhero on film – not being one. He’s hoping to land the role in a remake of a classic superhero movie, and the director has a unique vision: to create a film that blurs the line between what’s real and what’s fiction, but specifically without casting anyone who actually has superpowers.
If it wasn’t already obvious, the latest promo for Wonder Man makes things crystal clear. Simon Williams believes he was destined for this role because he’s keeping a big secret.
Get ready for Simon Williams to make a big impact on the Marvel Cinematic Universe! The newest trailer reveals he has superpowers, but he’s trying to keep them hidden while chasing his dream job. Unlike other heroes, Simon doesn’t want to be a superhero – he wants to play one in a movie. Surprisingly, his mentor is none other than Trevor Slattery, the famous actor from within the MCU. Simon believes having real powers could actually ruin his chances of landing the role he wants.
:Inception ‘brahm’ noise:
The new series Wonder Man is created by Daniel Destin Cretton and Andrew Guest, who also serve as showrunners. The first season has eight episodes and features Demetrius Grosse and Ed Harris in starring roles. Arian Moayed will return as her Marvel Cinematic Universe character, Agent P. Cleary from the Department of Damage Control.
The upcoming Disney+ show will reveal why Simon is such an unexpected but ideal choice to play Wonder Man. Tune in on January 27, 2026, to discover the answer.
