Ben Kingsley Cast in Wonder Man Series
Actor Ben Kingsley is set to reprise his recurring MCU character in Marvel Studios' upcoming Wonder Man TV series, according to Variety.
Kingsley will play Trevor Slattery, a role he originated in Iron Man 3, a low-rent actor impersonating the leader of the legendary Army of the Ten Rings. Slattery returned in the Marvel One-Shot, "All Hail The King," where the real Army of the Ten Rings kidnaps him from his prison cell. He was last seen in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings as a captive of said Army.
The series is executive produced by Destin Daniel Cretton, director of Shang-Chi. Wonder Man himself is a superhuman movie star, so Slattery's appearance makes sense on a few levels.
The Disney+ series is still in the early stages and is not yet on the calendar, which currently maps Marvel Studios programming into 2024.
