Get ready to dive into a realm of excitement and wonder as Wonda Coffee together with Astro Shaw bring Keluang Man – Malaysia’s beloved superhero to life. Keluang Man, a cherished superhero figure in Malaysian culture, is well known for its portrayal of qualities such as bravery, resilience, and the power of the human spirit. Through this collaboration, WONDA Coffee and Astro Shaw aim not only to entertain but also instil these values in the younger generation. The live-action movie produced by Astro Shaw is directed and written by Anwari Ashraf, based on the iconic animation series made popular in the 1990s, promising Malaysians a whole new cinematic experience in this day and age.
The partnership between both brands also came about under one key objective – supporting local talent and entertainment in Malaysia. Over the years, Wonda Coffee has been a strong champion of local initiatives, showing its great support for Malaysians through various campaigns and initiatives. This time, Wonda wants to connect us through our shared love for the original Malaysian superhero series, inviting everyone from young to old to reminisce our memories of Keluang Man and perhaps, embody the good qualities the character portrays.
Etika’s Vice President of Marketing, Amy Gan said, ”Wonda Coffee is always close to the hearts of Malaysians. We are committed to celebrating Malaysians and the unique local talents we have. Through our collaboration with Astro Shaw for Keluang Man, we wish to reiterate our support for the local entertainment industry, backing the gifted Director, writers, talented cast, production and post-production efforts that go into bringing this legend to the silver screen. As a brand that believes in the power of local talent, we aspire to be more than just a beverage brand, but to be synonymous with Malaysians as the drink of choice Malaysians indulge in for every local cinematic journey.”
“We are thrilled to partner with Astro Shaw to bring Keluang Man to life in such an engaging and interactive way. Here at KidZania today, as one of the first steps in our journey with Keluang Man, we introduce this unique wall-climbing zone. We want to inspire young Malaysians to embrace their inner hero, fostering courage, determination, and a sense of adventure.”
Vice President, Head of Astro Shaw & Malay Nusantara Business, Raja Jastina Raja Arshad said, “We are very excited to collaborate with Malaysia’s leading beverage manufacturer and distributor, Etika, in driving the transformation of film content in Malaysia. This collaboration marks a strong beginning for Astro Shaw in setting new standards for innovative marketing strategies in the film industry. We believe that Keluang Man and Wonda Coffee share a common focus on local elements and are both near and dear to all Malaysians. By leveraging the combined experiences of Astro Shaw and Etika, we are confident that this collaboration can achieve its objectives. Meanwhile, we also feel honored to have the opportunity for the Keluang Man film to be showcased at KidZania in the efforts to introduce Malaysia’s iconic superhero to the younger generation.”

Coming soon, fans can nominate and share the stories of their personal encounter with individuals that have made an impact in society through ‘Keluang Man of the Month’ on gempak.com, and the winner will be announced through the Gempak Most Wanted program on Astro Ria. This initiative aims to recognize unsung Malaysian heroes who possess qualities similar to Keluang Man who has no fear.”
