I like when things are easy. Nothing stops me in my tracks faster when I'm trying to purchase something online and I have to go through some convoluted process of creating an account, setting up a two-factor authentication, and doing a hundred different things before just buying whatever it is I was trying to buy. But sometimes I see the little purple button, pay button, and I get to bypass all the headache thanks to Shopify.

I think there will be some contextual overlap between Wonder Man and brand new day.

Money's always an end game for any corporation. It's not just Disney. So I think they're looking at like the benefits of like, okay, so how about we put Gene Gray in this show? What would the news do? Would the DOC make him look like the enemy? Which is what they're already trying to do with the mutants? Would they make him look like an enemy like Dorman? Would they make it be like, this guy killed Josh Gad? I do think they're gonna capture people in New York and Spirman Brand New Day and send them to the California prison. Welcome back to New Rock Stars. Yeah, yeah, Abdul Mateen the second and Ben Kingsley will return as Simon Williams and Trevor Slattery in Wonder Man season two. Only two other live action Marvel streaming shows have done this before, Loki and Daredevil Board again.

1:46.5

Also returning for season two is co-creator Destin Daniel Cretton, current Spider-Man brand new day director.

So does that mean that Wonder Man will be featured in Spider-Man Brand New Day?

Will the Mutant Saga be led by Destin Daniel Creton and Jake Shrier?

And what's a second season of Marvel's Wonder Man even look like? Where's Doorman? This is the sneak peek, The Weekly Show here at New Rockstar, where we talk about the future of band-dom with your host, Jessica Clemens, and Zach Cuddleston. Hey, thrilled to be here talking about one of my favorite shows of the last however many years. What do you mean how much of the last? I didn't want to name like two years. I don't know what number can you, whatever. A great show. So yes, earlier this week they reported that Wonder Man is getting a season two, which again, immediately my mind was like, this is insane because only Loki, which again, they were furthering K at the time. It made sense. But Daredevil Born again in this show? That's very specific. You guys had like 12 other shows. So first of all, how did you feel about the second season? Or how do you feel about the first season? I loved Wonder Man. I was like very pleasantly surprised. I don't know. I think all of us like Marvel had purposely set our expectations low or modestly

2:52.1

for this show. And I loved it. I thought, you know, I have a take on why this got renewed,

3:00.3

but I think like it was clearly a very well executed show, like top to bottom.

3:11.0

Like, the acting was good, the writing was good, the directing was good.
