It seems to be about an actor who discovers he has superpowers and has to deal with them in his daily life, since he doesn't want to be a superhero but just wants to pursue his career, but his powers are revealed in moments of loss of control.

An actor playing a superhero in a world where superheroes are real. He's trying to get a part but turns out he has powers himself.

Hollywood has banned Superpowers and WonderMan wants to work - so he has to hide his powers while PLAYING THE ROLE OF WonderMan, a hero he grew up watching and idolizing.

I’m sure there are fans of the comics or whatever… but as someone who has watched almost all MCU content, wow, I have zero interest in this.
CrumptownCrips2026-01-01 18:27
Same, it seems very bland and one-note.
Actor thinks he doesn't have powers but turns out he does and that's apparently the whole premise of the show.
To me that could serve as one episode, but based on the trailer that concept is dragged on for the whole show.
Also seems like another character that will not be seen in the greater MCU again a la Moon Knight.
PoolPartyWithoutTheL2026-01-01 18:36
Everyone said Ironheart was gonna suck based in the trailers, and it ended up being really good (IMO).
So chill and let's wait and see...
Edit: also, we shouldn't be so concerned about the "next" thing that we toss aside a character that may not appear again. Moon Knight was a good time, but I understand the potential it would have if he came back.
Presents a dilemma for long term contract universes like DC, and Marvel. Do you say no to an amazing actor if you don't have a long commitment, or do you make the best product you can and roll the dice on whether or not they come back.
tyrwlive2026-01-01 18:41
Same with the Agatha show.. I was pleasantly surprised. Cant say the same for Echo though
justafanboy10102026-01-01 19:06

Turbulent_Lobster_572026-01-01 18:36
I honestly thought this was some commentary or stab at DC for making their female characters just “blank” girl; bat girl, super girl, aqua girl, but in reverse. I only now realize this is an actual thing from Marvel that they want us to take seriously
Le_Juice_2026-01-01 18:23
I just found out they're dumping the whole 8 episode season all at once. Can they care about their shows any less? It's Echo all over again
ROBtimusPrime19952026-01-01 18:27
I mean, it is harder to convince people to wait weekly for a show like this if *this* is your response to it being binegable. Lmao.
PhilRobinsonMusic2026-01-01 18:30
Why does releasing all 8 episodes at once indicate that they don’t care? That’s been the prevalent release model for the vast history of streaming.
Interesting_Buddy_182026-01-02 21:48
It's now a well known trend by marvel that they release all episodes at once for those shows that they don't have any faith on - like echo and to a lesser extent with ironheart
PhilRobinsonMusic2026-01-02 23:29
This sounds like someone stating their opinion— I do not see anywhere how / if it’s substantiated by any facts. Also, Ironheart did not release all at once.
Interesting_Buddy_182026-01-02 23:32
I just gave you 2 examples and you say it's unsubstantiated by facts lol. Ironheart's 6 episodes were released in two weeks I don't consider it a ringing endorsement for the show.
I will give you another example - Eyes of Wakanda all released at once and forgotten.
PhilRobinsonMusic2026-01-02 23:36
True, you are giving examples of where Marvel has released a show’s episodes all at once— but there’s no evidence to indicate that this corresponds to a lack in confidence on Marvel’s part.
You’re kind of asking for that idea to be accepted just because you say so. It’s fine if that’s your opinion; I just don’t see any compelling reason to agree with your opinion. It’s all good, friend!
Interesting_Buddy_182026-01-02 23:46
>but there’s no evidence to indicate that this corresponds to a lack in confidence on Marvel’s parts.
The evidence is the lack of promotion and the general quality of these shows. Marvel recently has developed a sort of 6th sense as far as their tv shows go. They only receive a weekly release only when they are confident of a show's ability to do well (Agatha, Daredevil). If they aren't then the show is just shat out on D+ (Echo, Eyes of Wakanda, to a lesser extent Ironheart) one fine day. This has been the trend since the movies and tv/animation divisions were made separate. But please if you want to be in denial despite the obvious trend then please don't let me break your illusion
Just to be clear I was looking forward to watching this show weekly as it looked like they were trying something different but just the fact that Marvel is releasing it all at once has put a damper on the enthusiasm.
PhilRobinsonMusic2026-01-03 00:12
Maybe we are using the word evidence differently— I still don’t see any evidence in your post that Marvel releasing a show all-at-once indicates a lack of confidence in a show; just an assertion on your part that Marvel has developed a sixth sense to know when their shows will be failures.
One of my favorite shows right now is The Bear— each year, FX release all episodes of the new season at a single time. It’s a common release strategy used by many streaming services for many shows— in fact, it’s the most common release strategy. If FX releases all episodes at once, I do not interpret it as a lack of confidence. If Marvel releases all episodes of a show at once, I don’t interpret it as a lack of confidence, I view it as neutral. In the absence of any additional evidence indicating one way or the other, I take it as a neutral fact.
Curvedabullet2026-01-01 19:08
The marketing has been super weak and the trailers look like they really struggle to find anything to hook people with. Also doesn't help that Marvel/Disney has pretty much announced to the world that they're giving up on anything pre-Doomsday. Doomsday feels like such a huge do-over that it's hard to get excited or invested in any other Marvel Studios project until it comes out.
Jet-Let46062026-01-01 20:14

People are going to be like 'No Wonder they dropped all episodes at once, Man' after the series debuts.

I get the feeling this is going to be another 'All sizzle, no steak' series. Lots of talking about super powers and a grand total of 2 minutes of on screen power usage over 8 episodes.
BatmanForever232026-01-01 18:59
If it's a well written show that focuses on the ideas of a superhero actor then I'm fine without there being constant action, honestly.
Tudor_Cinema_Club2026-01-01 19:49
Oh well I think you'll be very happy with it then. Call me simple-minded but I prefer superhero shows to be about superheroes doing superhero stuff. 🤣 I leave the more cerebral character-driven shows to people far more clever than I.
BatmanForever232026-01-01 20:30
Yeah, you do sound pretty simple minded if you can’t bear the thought of a show being more than action scenes.
reallydirtyreallydan2026-01-01 18:54
Another black show horribly promoted
QueenOfTremembe2026-01-01 19:42
Don't think it has anything to do with it being a black show, I think Marvel know this show won't be doing numbers and is avoiding sinking even more money on it.
reallydirtyreallydan2026-01-01 20:37
Same thing happened with Iron heart (which was review bombed btw). I wonder why they think it won’t do numbers.
QueenOfTremembe2026-01-01 20:45
Because interest wasn't there in the first place. I know you want to make it about race, but Ironheart was never, ever a popular character since her debut, most people didn't care much about her in Wakanda Forever, so the writing was on the wall.
What is about race is how bigots use these shows failing as an excuse to say those projects failed because the main characters were black instead.
reallydirtyreallydan2026-01-01 20:49

kingthvnder2026-01-01 19:27
It’s interesting that all 8 episodes will drop at once, while I’m sure Vision Quest will be week to week but it being connected to WandaVision and Agatha probably means it warrants a weekly schedule more.. interesting choices here.. I think WonderMan is the last show they made under the covid era excess model so it tracks that they’re trying to just get it out. I’m guessing Vision Quest and the Punisher special presentation are the last of the shows for awhile?
CaptHayfever2026-01-01 20:20
Born Again already has a 3rd season pickup for after those. They also said the long-term plan is 2 live-action shows per year.

Coilspun2026-01-01 20:24
So, is Wonder Man actually superpowered in the series, or is he an actor playing a supe? Trying not to read too much to spoil it, but I was curious about the basic.premise.
lolstavros2026-01-01 21:46
Is this a sequel from Wonder Boy? He had the coolest powers. If I recall, couldn't he kill a Yak from 200 yards away? With "mind bullets"! (That's telekinesis, Kyle)

I knew it was coming this year, but I barely seen a thing about it. Now it's dropping EOM? Is this gonna be one of those things Disney/Marvel doesn't advertise? Is it because they think it's gonna flop or something?

Simon Williams aka Wonder Man, he's been around in the comics forever, fairly prominent member of the Avengers, his "brain waves" are what the comic's version of Vision are created from, he also is an actor in the comics. His power is "ionic energy", used to be a normal man, but he's basically made of it now, can do energy blasts, is super strong, can fly, is basically immortal. Here's a recommendation: [Comic's Explained: Wonder Man](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eVL0RtBVD4c)
