‘Wonder Man’ Is
Coming To Life in A Brand New Marvel Series
We here at Widescreen
Comic Review don't profess any great knowledge of the vast number of characters
in the Marvel-verse, so the discovery that Destin Daniel Cretton and Andrew
Guest have plans in the works to create a live-action series for a little known
character named ‘Wonder Man’ is a wonder to us. In fact, we said, “Wonder … Who?”
Here is the probable answer. In 1978 and according to the
late Stan Lee, "You know, years ago we brought out ‘Wonder Man’, and DC
Comics sued us because they had ‘Wonder Woman’, and... I said okay, I'll
discontinue ‘Wonder Man’.
So that’s it. Buried but apparently not forgotten, ‘Wonder
Man’ has been around since 1964. His real name is Simon Williams and he is a villain
turned hero. He has prior ties with Tony Stark in the munitions business to which
Stark was his main competition.

For
the first time in more than a decade, DreamWorks Animation presents a
new adventure in the Shrek universe as daring outlaw Puss in Boots
discovers that his passion for peril and disregard for safety have taken
their toll. Puss has burned through eight of his nine lives, though he
lost count along the way. Getting those lives back will send Puss in
Boots on his grandest quest yet.
Academy
Award® nominee Antonio Banderas returns as the voice of the notorious
PiB as he embarks on an epic journey into the Black Forest to find the
mythical Wishing Star and restore his lost lives. But with only one life
left, Puss will have to humble himself and ask for help from his former
partner and nemesis: the captivating Kitty Soft Paws (Oscar® nominee
Salma Hayek).
In
their quest, Puss and Kitty will be aided—against their better
judgment—by a ratty, chatty, relentlessly cheerful mutt, Perro (Harvey
Guillén, What We Do in the Shadows). Together, our trio of heroes will
have to stay one step ahead of Goldilocks (Oscar® nominee Florence Pugh,
Black Widow) and the Three Bears Crime Family, “Big” Jack Horner (Emmy
winner John Mulaney, Big Mouth) and terrifying bounty hunter, The Big
Bad Wolf (Wagner Moura, Narcos).
Puss
in Boots: The Last Wish features an all-star comedic cast that includes
Oscar® winner Olivia Colman, Ray Winstone (Black Widow), Samson Kayo
(Sliced), Emmy nominee Anthony Mendez (Jane the Virgin) and Tony nominee
Da'Vine Joy Randolph (Trolls World Tour).
The
long-awaited follow-up to the 2011 Academy Award®-nominated
blockbuster, The Last Wish is directed by Joel Crawford and produced by
Mark Swift, the creative team behind DreamWorks Animation’s smash, The
Croods: A New Age. The film’s executive producer is Illumination founder
and CEO Chris Meledandri.
The
character of Puss in Boots first appeared in 2004’s Oscar®-nominated
Shrek 2 and instantly became a global, scene-stealing sensation. Puss
then co-starred in two other Shrek sequels and his solo film, as well as
in multiple DreamWorks Animation videos and TV series. The Shrek and
Puss in Boots films have collectively earned more than $3.5 billion
worldwide.
