Ironheart Series to Premiere June 2025 on Disney+

Marvel's upcoming Ironheart series, set to premiere on Disney+ in June 2025, showcases Riri Williams, played by Dominique Thorne, as she dons a new, bulkier suit of armor inspired by Iron Man's early designs. This series follows Riri's return to her hometown of Chicago after the events of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, where she was introduced as a genius inventor. In the show, Riri navigates the challenges of being a superhero, confronting the enigmatic Parker Robbins, aka The Hood, played by Anthony Ramos, exploring the tension between technology and magic. Production faced delays due to reshoots postponed by the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes in 2023, but filming was completed in early 2024. Marvel has slowly built anticipation with sneak peeks and images depicting Riri's adventures and the evolution of her armor. The series is expected to delve deeper into her character, exploring her roots and how she uses her skills to impact her community.
