"What I really do enjoy...about this show is introducing people who have no idea what we do as an actor to a little bit of what it's like to be an actor trying to get a job,"
"These are such beautifully written characters with their vulnerabilities and their tremendous strengths that every day we find a different layer in the character,"
"It definitely is a look at the actor's life, you know, from the ground up. From the struggling actor and the people who are just, you know, struggling to make that dream happen for years and years and years,"
Marvel Television releases Wonder Man, a superhero story set in the world of Hollywood. Yahya Abdul-Mateen II plays Simon Williams, an aspiring actor desperate to be cast as Wonder Man and possibly more qualified for the role than expected. Simon forms a friendship with Trevor Slattery, portrayed by Ben Kingsley, a mysterious character with layered vulnerabilities and strengths. The series emphasizes comedy and drama over action and offers an inside look at the struggles of actors trying to achieve their dreams. Co-creators promise an emotional, unique, and unexpected culmination across eight episodes streaming on Disney+.
