With his latest MCU theatrical outing crossing the $1B mark in record time, Destin Daniel Cretton is left in the dark about his canceled Marvel series. The Wonder Man co-creator admits he doesn’t “fully understand the why” after Disney and Marvel canceled the series, four months after renewing the show for Season 2 at Disney+. Based on the Marvel comics character Simon Williams/Wonder Man, Guest and Cretton co-created the series that debuted in January, earning Abdul-Mateen an Emmy nomination. Meanwhile, Cretton’s latest MCU directorial outing Spider-Man: Brand New Day premiered Friday, a day after Wonder Man was canceled. Wonder Man follows aspiring actor Simon Williams (Abdul-Mateen), who is struggling to get his career off the ground.
