Wonder Man Is NOT What We Expected… | Episodes 1–4 Review

Marvel dives headfirst into Hollywood with Wonder Man, and the first four episodes give us a strange, funny, and surprisingly emotional story about fame, failure, and superpowers.

We follow struggling actor Simon Williams as his life falls apart just as he begins discovering dangerous new abilities. Alongside Trevor Slattery’s return and the Department of Damage Control monitoring Simon’s growing powers, the series blends satire of the entertainment industry with classic Marvel storytelling. Meanwhile, the rise and fall of Doorman adds another unpredictable layer to this chaotic world of celebrity superheroes.

In this episode, we break down the biggest moments from Episodes 1–4, discuss standout performances, and talk about how Wonder Man is shaping up compared to other Marvel Disney+ shows.
