This episode is a major full-circle moment. Loren LoRosa hosts an exclusive virtual HBCU roundtable with Wonder Man star Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, and the conversation is equal parts inspiring, insightful, and real.

Broadcast journalism students from HBCUs across the country step into the spotlight to ask Yahya about joining the Marvel universe, bringing Simon Williams to life, and the emotional reality of chasing a dream in Hollywood. From insecurity and ambition to representation and staying true to yourself, Yahya opens up about the passion, doubt, and perseverance behind the superhero shine.

Loren also reflects on why this moment hits deeper for HBCU creatives and how Wonder Man is more than just another Marvel series — it’s a story about belief, purpose, and not giving up when the world hasn’t caught on to your greatness yet.
