According to a recent report, upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe series Wonder-Man will introduce mutant hero Doorman.
DeMarr Davis, aka Doorman, will make his live-action Marvel debut in upcoming series Wonder-Man, coming to Disney+ in 2026. This news comes from D23 Magazine.
Wonder-Man has been a big figure in Marvel Comics for decades at this point. Created by Stan Lee and artists Don Heck and Jack Kirby, he first appeared in The Avengers #9 back in 1964. While other characters have had their chance to shine in the MCU, it’s taken until the 17th TV series in the franchise for him to be introduced. But at least he’s getting his own series — and he won’t be the only hero making his debut appearance on the small-screen. Doorman is also joining the series.
Doorman will be played by Byron Bowers
Wonder-Man is the perfect series to introduce Doorman. Of course, being set on the west coast, Doorman was first introduced as a member of the West Coast Avengers, created by John Byrne in 1989. His primary superpower is the ability to create portals, but he’s also able to fly and generate objects using Darkforce energy. After his death, DeMarr Davis was resurrected by Oblivion to serve as an Angel of Death, granting him the new abilities.
Wonder-Man will premiere in 2026. The series takes on a meta approach, much like Deadpool and She-Hulk. According to star Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, the series is much different to anything we’ve seen so far. “We’re doing something that, tonally, feels much different than really any other Marvel show, or any other films,” the actor told Empire. “We’re doing something that’s fresh, and a bit tongue-in-cheek, a bit self-aware.”
“The show is self-aware, without looking directly into the camera,” he added. “There’ll be commentary about superhero fatigue and things like that, but to me, it’s just dressing. That’s not really the aim of the show. The focus of the show is about an actor’s journey. It’s about a journey of friendship.”
