Exclusive : Ryan Coogler’s new Marvel series “Ironheart” reveals teaser trailer and poster starring Dominique Thorne
Set after the events of “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever,” “Ironheart” pits technology against magic when Riri—determined to make her mark on the world—returns to her hometown of Chicago.
Fans are getting a first look at Marvel Television’s “Ironheart” with the debut of a teaser trailer and poster.
A first look at Ironheart
Launching exclusively on Disney+ on June 24, the intriguing new series stars Dominique Thorne as Riri Williams, a young, genius inventor whose iron suits rival the best in the MCU. The character made her debut in 2022’s “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever,” directed by Ryan Coogler. “Ironheart is such a great character in publishing,” said Coogler.
“In 2016, Brian Michael Bendis created a character who would be a successor of sorts to the Iron Man legacy. In the comic book, Riri Williams and Tony Stark had a relationship—she was a student at MIT who came from an almost polar opposite background as Tony, but they came together in their passion to better society. Eventually, the character gets her own identity as Ironheart, and other writers like Eve Ewing picked up from there, taking Riri Williams to Chicago.”
