English actor Ben Kingsley has portrayed the bumbling, down-on-his-luck theater wannabe Trevor Slattery since 2013‘s Iron Man 3. He got here again into the MCU not too long ago with an look in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. Now, it looks like he’ll reprise his function for the Marvel tv sequence Wonder Man, reviews Variety.

There’s no phrase but on the plot of Wonder Man, however there have been some rumors swirling round that the present would try a satire of Hollywood. In the comics, Wonder Man, additionally recognized as Simon Williams, was at numerous factors a stunt man and an actor. Who is aware of how a lot of Williams’ backstory shall be stored, particularly contemplating that he initially obtained his powers after making a take care of Baron Zemo. Oh, and his dad’s firm was speculated to be competing with Stark Industries earlier than going beneath, a storyline that appears unlikely contemplating how little Stark Industries has really been doing since, you already know, Tony Stark died.
