Meanwhile, Daredevil: Born Again will conclude next year with its third season, paving the way for a reunion of the Netflix Defenders lineup.
Series cancelation
Cancellation of 'Wonder Man' after Emmy nomination
In a surprising turn of events, Marvel recently announced the cancellation of Wonder Man just months after its January premiere.
The show had initially been renewed for a second season and even received an Emmy nomination for lead actor Yahya Abdul-Mateen II.
This decision is part of Marvel's ongoing reevaluation of its live-action television strategy.
