‘Wonder Man’ Is No Longer Returning for Season 2
Nothing in Hollywood is ever certain, even when a project is announced by Disney-owned Marvel Studios (just ask Blade). But it’s still a bummer to hear that Wonder Man, which was somewhat unexpectedly renewed for a second season on Disney+ back in March and just notched an Emmy nomination for star Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, has now been canceled. This is disappointing for Wonder Man fans who were excited to see what trouble Simon Williams was going to get mixed up in next, something Abdul-Mateen had already started teasing.

The second season will not move forward. This is disappointing for Wonder Man fans who were excited to see what trouble Simon Williams was going to get mixed up in next, something Abdul-Mateen had already started teasing.
