    Yahya Abdul-Mateen II To Lead Marvel’s ‘Wonder Man’ Series Coming to Disney+

    American actor Yahya Abdul-Mateen II has been cast to star as the lead in the Disney+ series Wonder Man, where he will be playing the role of Simon Williams.
    In the comics, Williams is the son of a wealthy businessman whose company, Williams Innovations, is forced out of business owing to competition from Stark Industries.

    However, Simon eventually joins the Avengers and is even a founding member of the West Coast Avengers, a spin-off team.
    Currently, it's uncertain how much of this plot will be included in the upcoming series.
    It does seem likely that William's comic history as an actor and stunt performer will be explored in the show, as Ben Kingsley is set to return as failed-actor-turned-reformed-villain Trevor Slattery, which he originated in 2013's Iron Man 3 and reprised in Shang-Chi.
