Filmmaker Cretton Reacts to Marvel's Cancellation of 'Wonder Man' SeriesPreviousNext

Filmmaker Destin Daniel Cretton expressed heartbreak over Marvel Studios' cancellation of the Disney+ series "Wonder Man," despite its renewal for a second season. Both Cretton and Marvel president Kevin Feige reportedly wanted to continue the show, but the decision was reversed without clear explanation. The series, starring Yahya Abdul-Mateen II and Ben Kingsley, premiered in January and earned an Emmy nomination. Speculation about a potential feature film was denied by co-creator Andrew Guest, who confirmed no movie is planned and production was set to continue.
