Wonder Man: Showrunner Confirms Season 2 Was Never Going Ahead
TL;DR Summary
The Marvel/Disney+ series Wonder Man was canceled after a renewal for Season 2 was publicly reversed. Showrunner Andrew Guest posted that the cancellation wasn’t a marketing stunt, a movie adaptation, or a scheduling issue; contracts were signed and production would have started next year. The decision came from higher-ups at Disney and Marvel, and Guest noted he and the cast passionately supported a second season. He also revealed he’d written a Season 2 premiere and that the team had a “really incredible” outline, though details remain under wraps. He thanked fans and urged Emmy voters to recognize Yahya Abdul-Mateen II’s performance on the show.
