    From the article: “Wonder Man will consist of six episodes that will break an MCU record regarding runtime.”

    Are they going to be like seven minute episodes? What do they mean by break a record?

    It says Gadd is playing himself. At least he’s a character I like.

      It feels like that line was inserted into the article automatically and not reviewed. Clicking the link says,

      the series will average a lean 31 minutes per episode across its eight entries.

      Full reported Wonder Man episode lengths
      • Episode 1: 32 minutes
      • Episode 2: 32 minutes
      • Episode 3: 32 minutes
      • Episode 4: 30 minutes
      • Episode 5: 23 minutes
      • Episode 6: 34 minutes
      • Episode 7: 33 minutes
      • Episode 8: 32 minutes

      But… it has also been reported that the series will drop all at once.

      Echo dropped all 5 episodes in January 2024, and (my own speculation) it looks like that was probably 6 episodes trimmed down to 5.

      So is this 8 trimmed down to 6, or just a mistake? I’m guessing mistake.

      Will it be all at once? I’m guessing Ironheart style in two drops one week apart.

      Disney usually drops a little social media graphic about a week before, so that’s when we’ll probably know for sure.
