Wonder Man Season 2 No Longer Moving Forward at Disney+

Wonder Man will not return for a second season at Disney+, according to a report from Variety.

The cancellation comes just months after Disney announced in March that the Marvel series had been renewed, following its debut earlier this year. Sources cited by Variety say a writers' room for Season 2 was never assembled, and the show's writing staff has since been released to pursue other opportunities.

The series starred Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as Simon Williams/Wonder Man, alongside Ben Kingsley, who reprised his role as Trevor Slattery. The cast also included X Mayo, Demetrius Grosse, Zlatko Burić, Arian Moayed, and Olivia Thirlby. Wonder Man was created by Destin Daniel Cretton and Andrew Guest. Cretton also directed the first two episodes.

According to an individual familiar with the situation, although Wonder Man will not continue with a second season, characters from the series could still appear in future Marvel projects.

I'm hoping this means Daniel Destin Creton is being pulled to do a fast tracked Shang Chi 2 or some other bigger project. Fingers crossed for a Rampaging Hulk movie. BND is amazing and proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that he could handle any MCU project they give him.

I think this has more to do with what Fiege was say about quality over quantity. Since endgame it has been a non stop stream of random hero movies and TV series. Every thing was approved regardless on how popular they were. Hell we got a show about Agatha Harkness more because of that meme then the actual character. So it think they want to streamline the MCU more. I would expect visionquest to be the last TV show for a while, beyond the daredevil side revamps.

spacer.pngWhy would they have announced a season 2 like a few months ago? to now saying cancelled? like huh? I'm confused, also this is a big let down, this show was great, refreshing and I was really excited to see what could transpire in season 2... crazy enough this was probably the first show in the D+ bag that I actually was really happy and looking forward to a season 2, they just scratched the surface on this story, Hey at least please put Wonder Man in greater MCU, don't Moon Knight this guy..such a good character with so much to build off.

It was truly unique and diverse, yet deeply woven into MCU lore. The project had artistic merit and a clear vision, knowing exactly what it wanted to be unlike 90 percent of current MCU content. While I was happy we didn't get generic good vs bad guy showdown, I suspect that for the average MCU audience, it was perhaps too far out of left field.

I could've sworn they were reporting the show as a success.

I would imagine things changed considering it looks like Marvel is going to be more selective about what they do. Even as a success, they may be asking where they see it going.

so they renew it then pull the carpet out from under?!

I didn't think much of the first season. It was entertaining but the foreshadowing for season 2 looked like it was going to get much more interesting.

Yes. This is very disappointing news. Unless they pull a moonknight 4 yrs from now... the ridiculousness of Marvel Studios. I could've sworn they were reporting the show as a success.

I'm disappointed there won't be a season 2. I thought the first season was surprisingly entertaining.

Just put dude into Secret Wars!
