Wonder Man Episode 4 Doorman Review

In the standalone episode of Wonder Man Episode 4 "Doorman" we discuss the cautionary tale of how the Doorman clause came to Hollywood productions and how it can chew up and spit out even those that don't want fame. We chat about the episode in spoiler filled detail so make sure you've watched this one before joined us.Wonder Man Episode 4 "Pacoima" DetailsExecutive Producers are Kevin Feige, Stephen Broussard, Jonathan Schwartz, Louis D’Esposito, Brad Winderbaum, Destin Daniel Cretton, Andrew GuestDirected by James PonsoldtWritten by Zeke NicholsonEpisode Synopsis:Simon shares his concerns with Trevor that if his abilities are revealed to the world he will lose his career because of Hollywood’s “Doorman” clause. Unaware of the history, Simon explains to Trevor who caused the change to Hollywood’s inclusion of powered individuals.A few years ago, DeMarr Davis was a doorman for the Wilcox club in LA. Brushing shoulders with wealthy customers, musicians and actors he loved his job. But when he encountered some otherworldly goop from the Roxxon Corporation he developed special abilities. He now has the ability to teleport people and objects through solid matter.When a fire starts in the club, threatening the lives of everyone inside, DeMarr uses his new Doorman powers to get everyone out to safety. Eternally grateful for saving his life, Hollywood actor Josh Gad gives DeMarr a job as his assistant. DeMarr soon gets a role on Josh’s movie “Cash Grab” using his powers in a pivotal scene. The stunt works and DeMarr Davis becomes The Doorman, the superpowered actor with his own catch phrase. But it’s not Ding Dong for long as the public quickly get tired of DeMarr’s schtick. On the downward spiral, a glimmer of hope comes in the form of Josh offering him a role in “Cash Grab 2”. But when they try to create a new super powered sequence for the sequel it all goes horribly wrong. As one cash bag after another is safely transferred through Demarr it's time for Josh Gad’s character to also make his escape. But J-Gad goes in and J-Gad doesn't come out, disappearing, never to return.Hollywood was shocked and created a clause on all productions that would stop people with powers acting in any production ever again.Wonder Man Episode 4 CastByron Bowers as DeMarr “Doorman” DavisJosh Gad as HimselfMario Lopez as HimselfBridget as Charlotte RossJon A Abrahams as Frank PremengerYahya Abdul-Mateen II as Simon WilliamsBen Kingsley as Trevor SlatteryWonder Man Pub QuizDuring each podcast we'll ask a question about each episode in our Wonder Man Pub Quiz.

Wonder Man Episode 3 Pacoima Review

Derek and John are chatting about Wonder Man Episode 3 "Pacoima" as Trevor goes to meet Simon's family. We want to hear your feedback as the season goes on make sure you share it at the address below.Wonder Man Episode 3 "Pacoima" DetailsExecutive Producers are Kevin Feige, Stephen Broussard, Jonathan Schwartz, Louis D’Esposito, Brad Winderbaum, Destin Daniel Cretton, Andrew GuestDirected by James PonsoldtWritten by Madeline Walter and Paul WelshEpisode Synopsis:While Simon Williams is still waiting for an answer for his Wonder Man audition, the Department of Damage Control are concerned their funding will be cut. Their mission is to protect the US from super powered threats but their purpose built prison remains half empty and pressure is coming down from Congress to reduce the DODC’s budget.Agent Cleary has information on two incidents that might include Simon Williams. An explosion at his home as a child and a porta-potty explosion on the set of The Rookie while Simon was there. In order to connect these, Agent Cleary threatens Trevor Slattery to interrogate Simon’s family and friends at his mum’s birthday party.At the event Trevor learns a new kitchen has been installed with an island. The very thing Simon's mum has always wanted. But Trevor learns very little about Simon except that he’s always been alone and he’s always been lonely. His family, friends and neighbours don’t understand his acting career and believe he’s lazy and overly dependent on his family.After everyone leaves the party, Simon’s brother Eric pushes Simon to admit he got fired from American Horror Story and give up on his acting dreams. The stress sends Simon over the edge and his powers explode out of him destroying his mother’s newly treasured kitchen island.Later Simon apologises to Trevor for his explosive powers that have never been witnessed before by anyone outside of the family, but empathetic to Simon’s loneliness, Trevor chooses to destroy the taped evidence from his wire instead of delivering it to Damage Control.Meanwhile Simon’s agent, Janelle, calls to inform him that both actors have callbacks for roles in Wonder Man, but Simon is concerned his whole career would be over if anyone finds out about his powers because all Hollywood productions ban powered actors following the case of Demarr “Doorman” Davis.Wonder Man Episode 3 CastYahya Abdul-Mateen II as Simon WilliamsBen Kingsley as Trevor SlatteryX Mayo as JanelleOlivia Thirlby as VivianArian Moayed as Agent ClearyZlatko Buric as Von KovakWonder Man Pub QuizDuring each podcast we'll ask a question about each episode in our Wonder Man Pub Quiz.
