WONDER MAN S1 SEASON REVIEW 🤩

I loved WONDER MAN, the new Marvel character with surprising, exciting, uncontrolled powers. He is a Supe that got my full attention because of his fears of being discovered. The series was also a master class in acting. This was brilliantly highlighted by the geniuses of Sir Ben Kingsley as Trevor and WONDER MAN  himself, Simon, played by Yahay Abdul-Mateen II. Both of them delivered two entirely different approaches to the art of acting. It was an incredible duo, but then do remember I am a former Theatre teacher. Need I say more? 

What I loved about WONDER MAN was the quick pacing of each episode, the funny dialogues that seemed to be improvised, the surprise guest stars, and the constant pushing the edge of what should be considered normal behavior and choices. Each installment surprised me as the writers and actors exposed the beginnings of crazy relationships and family dynamics. It shined a light on how to be a great dad when dealing with some unusual growing pains. It took audiences deep within  a doorman’s body. “Ding-dong” will never sound so innocent again. 

WONDER MAN delivered. It was intriguing , heart-warming, and explosive. I never knew what to expect, yet I knew I was always safe nestled within the extraordinary talents of Kingsley. He was truly a breath of fresh air. It all ended with a fun intensity toward another season. I can’t wait. 

WONDER MAN is streaming on Disney+.
