Wonder Man | First Trailer (2025) Yahya Abdul-Mateen II | Disney+

I'm even more excited for the Scarlet Witch to return to the MCU after the release of new footage from Marvel Studios' upcoming Wonder Man series. Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings is one of my favorite recent Marvel projects, so I was thrilled to hear that director Destin Daniel Cretton will be bringing more heroes into the MCU, including Simon Williams' Wonder Man. Wonder Man is set to be released under the Marvel Spotlight banner in December 2025, and I'm even more excited for the series after the reveal of new footage.

The first footage of Wonder Man was released as part of a look ahead at Marvel Studios' upcoming Disney+ projects in 2024 and 2025. This gave us our first look at Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as Simon Williams, who was introduced as the villain-turned-superhero Wonder Man in Marvel Comics in 1964's The Avengers #9. Wonder Man's Marvel Comics history is rich and complex, and I would love to see some of this adapted faithfully in the live-action MCU, specifically Simon Williams' romantic connection to Wanda Maximoff's Scarlet Witch.
