Marvel’s Ironheart Debuts With Hollywood Premiere

Marvel’s Disney+ series Ironheart, starring Dominique Thorne as Riri Williams, debuted with a Hollywood premiere and a three-episode release, expanding the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The show follows Riri, a tech prodigy and MIT inventor inspired by Tony Stark, as she returns to Chicago after Black Panther: Wakanda Forever to confront personal loss and new adversaries, including the magic-wielding Hood (Anthony Ramos). Without Stark’s resources, Riri must navigate the impact of her inventions and her path to heroism. Executive producer Ryan Coogler and consulting producer Eve L. Ewing ground the series in both MCU continuity and Chicago culture. The series is praised for exploring the intersection of technology and magic and for its nuanced character portrayal. Future episodes will continue to explore Riri's journey and her role in the MCU.
