“Aspiring Hollywood actor Simon Williams is struggling to get his career off the ground. During a chance meeting with Trevor Slattery, an actor whose biggest roles may be well behind him, Simon learns legendary director Von Kovak is remaking the superhero film Wonder Man. These two actors at opposite ends of their careers doggedly pursue life-changing roles in this film as audiences get a peek behind the curtain of the entertainment industry,” reads the official synopsis.
How can you watch the first episode of Wonder Man without Disney+?
For MCU fans who have no access to Disney+, you can now watch the first episode of Wonder Man on Marvel Entertainment’s official YouTube channel. The episode, titled “Matinee,” has a total runtime of 32 minutes and 47 seconds.
Wonder Man was executive-produced and directed by Destin Daniel Cretton (Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, Spider-Man: Brand New Day).

The ensemble cast featured Emmy Award winner Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as Simon Williams, Demetrius Grosse as Eric Williams, Byron Bowers, and Lauren Glazier, with returning MCU stars Ben Kingsley as Trevor Slattery and Arian Moayed as P. Cleary.
