Marvel TV head Brad Winderbaum has opened up about Wonder Man's cancelation, calling the situation "complicated". Speaking in a new interview, he said that he still hopes something could happen in the future with the show.
"I fought for it, I don't know what to say. It's complicated," he replied when asked about it on The Brandon Davis Show. "Sometimes you feel like you're invincible and can make whatever you want, sometimes, you don't have leverage, it's subject to market forces that I like barely understand."
However, Winderbaum went on to add: "But creatively it's one of the best teams I've ever worked with, I love that cast, I love Destin [Daniel Cretton], I love Andrew [Guest], I fought for the show, we all did. Everyone at Marvel wanted to see it happen. Maybe I'm an idiot, but I still have hope that by some miracle, there's a way to do something down the road."
Presenter Davis suggested it could follow in the footsteps of Daredevil and come back for another season. Winderbaum admitted he's not sure fan campaigns can be as successful these days, but he said he hopes more people watch Wonder Man. "I love that show and really want as many people to watch it as possible."
Wonder Man starred Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as Simon Williams, a struggling actor who secretly possesses superhuman powers. Ben Kingsley returned as Trevor Slattery in the series as well, which was a big hit with viewers and critics alike. It was renewed for season two in March before being canceled in July.
