The streamer reverses its renewal decision.
July 30, 2026
It is being reported by Variety that Wonder Man has been cancelled at Disney+. The news comes as a surprise, as the Marvel superhero drama received a second season renewal just four months ago. The reason for the change of heart is not known, and word is that a writers' room for Season 2 was never opened.
The series follows Simon Williams, an aspiring Hollywood actor struggling to get his career off the ground. When he meets Trevor Slattery, an actor whose biggest roles are behind him, Simon learns that legendary director Von Kovak is remaking the superhero film "Wonder Man." These two actors at opposite ends of their careers both pursue life-changing roles in the film.

Chris you’re just as bad as the other side. Your saying a studio that replaced a white man with a black man (Captain America) or made an African nation the most powerful in the world giving them 2 movies (and a new king for more movies) or had the choice to make Nick Fury not Sam Jackson but did is racist. Instead of brining race into maybe talk about why you think a studio needs to spend millions on an underperforming show.

I do not think Marvel or Disney hates black people. From the point of view of a mixed Asian/Black female, Marvel represents very well. Anthony Mackie as Sam Wilson aka Cap/Falcon. Chadwick Bosman as Black Panther. Mike Colter as Luke Cage. All of Wakanda, too many to list. Blade, Storm, War Machine, Misty Knight, Bishop. That is all from the top of my head.
P.S. I think Chris may have misspoke. Chris should give us a little more next time.

Chris, you're an idiot. Don't bring race into this. The show was average at best.

Thank goodness! This was one of the worst Disney shows I have ever seen! As a Marvel comic book fan, and Wonder Man being one of my favorite characters, I was truly disappointed in the writing and how Wonder Man was portrayed. There was no real origin on how he got his powers, and the character (not the actor) had no redeeming qualities. I am so glad Disney cancelled this show. Hopefully the funds will go towards better quality productions.

I thought the show was slow and boring. Watched every episode

That's too bad. We enjoyed it.

This show was great, the writing was great, so was the acting, story, all of it. Really enjoyed Wonder Man. This show did well as far as I know. I'm sure we'll be seeing Simon Williams again.
