Marvel Cancels Third Live-Action TV Show of 2026 Amid Viewer Numbers Concerns
Marvel Studios has canceled its third live-action TV show of 2026, Wonder Man, just weeks after Spider-Noir was axed by Amazon Prime Video. The decision to cancel Wonder Man's second season was reportedly due to low viewership numbers, with Disney+ concluding that it 'didn't make sense for business.'
The cancellation marks the third TV show to be axed this year alone, following in the footsteps of Spider-Noir and Daredevil: Born Again. Despite its initial renewal, Wonder Man's second season was officially abandoned at Disney+, leaving fans disappointed.
Marvel Television has struggled to find success with its live-action Disney+ shows, with only two series - Loki and Daredevil: Born Again - earning a second season. The studio is now shifting its focus towards a spy thriller called Zodiac, which is reportedly moving into production next year. This marks a major pivot in the MCU's Disney+ strategy, as Marvel Television looks to head into Phase 7 and the Mutant Saga with a clean slate.
