I will guess that they'll compress his story where he starts as an arrogant actor, blah blah blah, dies and is brought back with powers by his evil brother, whom he has to stop and thus becomes a hero while saving his Hollywoo career.

I can imagine a montage where Simon tries out different costumes and some of them are his worst looks from the comics.

I don't know that we necessarily need Simon to be an industrialist. They could include his actor/stuntman history by having him be a failed media mogul that breaks the law.
Any evil genius will do for juicing him up. For that matter, what's Justin Hammer up to these days?
Completely agree.
It would be a good opportunity to bring in his father as Hammer Sr who has to come out retirement to rebuild his company after his son drove it into the ground.
Seeing Sam Rockwell's Hammer interacting with an old cranky comic accurate Hammer Sr would be so much fun. Get someone like Malcolm McDowell to play him. Maybe Hammer Industries is now financing movies and giving Simon super powers is part of their plan to raise their profile and also cut costs on special effects.
