Spider-Man: No Way Home Character Set to Return in Marvel’s Mysterious Upcoming Disney+ Series Wonder Man


Wonder Man, the upcoming Disney+ series from Shang-Chi director Destin Daniel Cretton, will see a recurring Marvel Cinematic Universe character return in a prominent role.

Agent P. Cleary, played by Succession actor Arian Moayed, previously popped up in Spider-Man: No Way Home as an agent of the United States Deparment of Damage Control. The character then returned for Disney+ series Ms. Marvel, appearing in three episodes.

Next, audiences will see Cleary back once again in Wonder Man, the first season of which is set to launch this December. The series stars Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as Simon Williams, AKA Wonder Man, an actor with superhero powers. The whole thing sounds like it’ll be a fun self-referential riff on the real-life TV and movie industry, of which Marvel itself is of course a key part.

Deadline reports that Cleary will “feature prominently” in Wonder Man, though does not otherwise go into detail on the series’ plot.

Presumably, though, Cleary will continue his role as an antagonist to the MCU’s various heroes, getting in the way as a government suit trying to investigate those with enhanced abilities just trying to do good.

Wonder Man also features another recurring MCU character: Trevor Slattery, the cheeky actor from Croydon played by Sir Ben Kingsley in both Iron Man 3 and Shang-Chi. Welcome back Trev!

Disney has, to date, kept much of its plans for Wonder Man under wraps, though finally began teasing the series earlier this month by including it in a 60-second sneak peek sizzle reel of upcoming Disney+ content. The clips we got as part of that briefly showed Yahya Abdul-Mateen II and Ben Kingsley having a quick conversation. You can watch that video above.

Next up for Marvel on Disney+ are a couple of short animated shows, Eyes of Wakanda and Marvel Zombies, which arrive on August 27 and October 3 respectively. After those, Wonder Man debuts sometime in December with eight episodes.

Currently-announced series set to arrive in 2026 include the second season of Daredevil: Born Again, the Paul Bettany-starring Vision Quest, and the second season of the animated Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man.

Several other Marvel TV projects have long been rumored, including a Doctor Strange spin-off series entitled Strange Academy, and Marvel’s plans for a project featuring Nova. But, as of yet, Marvel is yet to confirm either.
