Riri Williams is ready to build something iconic.
Marvel Television has unveiled the new trailer for Ironheart,
following the young, brilliant inventor as sets out on a new
adventure. Dominique Thorne first brought the character to
the screen in 2022's Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, and now,
she's stepping into the spotlight with her own series,
premiering June 24 on Disney+.
"What was interesting for me was how different Riri's story
and entrance into the MCU was in comparison to other
characters," Thorne said. "After bringing Riri to life in the
world of Wakanda, we had an amazing opportunity to follow
that up with a deep dive into the character that allows for
the exploration of her origin story. We're not necessarily
going back in time; it's more of catching up and seeing the
effects of how those first pivotal moments of her life have
shaped her, and seeing the person that she's trying to
become."
Ironheart picks up after the events of Wakanda Forever,
following Riri as she returns to her hometown of Chicago.
Eager to make a name for herself, Riri uses her intellect to
craft state-of-the-art iron suits, but her ambitions put her
on a collision course with the charming Parker Robbins, aka
the Hood (Anthony Ramos).
Black Panther and Wakanda Forever director Ryan Coogler also
serves as an executive producer on Ironheart, and he
previously opened up to Marvel.com about how the series mixes
science and magic.
"Riri is definitely in conversation with a street-level show
like Daredevil," Coogler teased. "You've got characters trying
- both heroes and villains - to make do with what they have.
Then you combine that with cosmic Marvel, characters who would
be at home in Doctor Strange or WandaVision. That [mix] of
street-level Marvel and magical Marvel is a pretty crazy
combination."
Ironheart also stars Lyric Ross, Alden Ehrenreich, Regan
Aliyah, Manny Montana, Matthew Elam, and Anji White. Chinaka
Hodge serves as head writer, with episodes directed by Sam
Bailey and Angela Barnes. Executive producers include Kevin
Feige, Louis D'Esposito, Brad Winderbaum, Zoie Nagelhout,
Chinaka Hodge, Ryan Coogler, Sev Ohanian, and Zinzi Coogler,
and the series is produced in association with Proximity Media.
Marvel Television's Ironheart launches with a 3-episode
premiere June 24 at 6 p.m. PT/ 9 p.m. ET, only on Disney+.
