Marvel's Wonder Man series, following its trailer debut earlier this month, premiered exclusively on Disney+ on January 27, 2026, at 6 p.m. PT. Starring Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as Simon Williams alongside Ben Kingsley reprising Trevor Slattery, the show explores Hollywood ambitions amid a superhero remake.
The eight-episode Wonder Man series premiered on Disney+ on Tuesday, January 27, 2026, at 6 p.m. PT, expanding Marvel's streaming superhero content. Yahya Abdul-Mateen II stars as Simon Williams, an aspiring actor who encounters faded star Trevor Slattery (Ben Kingsley, returning from Iron Man 3 and Shang-Chi). Together, they pursue roles in a remake of the Wonder Man superhero film, blending industry satire with Marvel ties.
Building on the trailer released earlier in January—which teased the pressures of fame—the full series delivers character-driven storytelling. Created by Destin Daniel Cretton (Shang-Chi) and Andrew Guest (Hawkeye), it offers behind-the-scenes Hollywood insights within the MCU. This release underscores Disney+'s strategy for exclusive Marvel drops, available now to subscribers.
