Exciting update

However, again, Wonder Man has been filming in Los Angeles, and now Brad Winderbaum, the Head of Streaming, Television, and Animation at Marvel, gives Agents of Fandom an “exciting” update about the series and Ironheart.

“Yeah, absolutely,” he says. “We’re editing both of those shows as we speak. They’re spectacular, they’re amazing, and they’re different
We’re able to explore corners of the universe that are really exciting. Riri Williams is one of them and I cannot wait for people to meet Simon Williams.”

What is Wonder Man and Ironheart about?

Wonder Man

Wonder Man stars Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as Simon Williams, described as a stuntman-turned superhero.

The show has also been described as following the titular character as a failed actor in a comedy series and a satire of Hollywood.

Ben Kingsley is also said to be returning as Trevor Slattery from the Iron Man movies as well as Shang-Chi, where it’s guessed that since Slattery is another failed actor who suffers from drug addictions and various legal problems, that is how Kingsley’s Slattery connects and knows Simon Williams.  

Demetrius Grosse is also playing Simon’s brother, Eric Williams, aka Grim Reaper, the apparent villain of the series.

Ironheart

Ironheart stars Dominique Thorne who was shoehorned into Black Panther 2 as Riri Williams a tech genuius who copies Iron Man tech and for some reason is allowed to keep it. In the comics, she is a 15-year-old girl who steals the technology.
