Wonder Man will making his live-action debut soon in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). The news is still pretty fresh, with a live-action Wonder Man TV series officially confirmed to be in development in June 2022. So far, updates have been pretty sparse regarding plot and casting. However, Destin Daniel Cretton, the director of Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, has been tapped as the executive producer and Andrew Guest will serve as the show’s head writer.

So far, only one cast member has been announced. On August 30th, 2022, it was confirmed that Ben Kingsley would be reprising his role as Trevor Slattery for the series. When it comes to Wonder Man himself though, Marvel is keeping their lips sealed and no actors have been attached to the role yet. The series is believed to be more comedic or satirical in nature, as it explores Wonder Man’s struggling acting career, meaning whoever plays Wonder Man will have to be a bit of a flexible actor. We’ll need someone with acting skills up to MCU standards, who can portray a villain-turned-hero with a sour personality in a comedic way.
