Marvel’s ‘Ironheart’ Trailer: Dominique Thorne’s Riri Williams Makes Own Iron Armor In Preview For Disney+ Series

Disney+ has released the first trailer for Ironheart, the Marvel Television series executive-produced by Ryan Coogler and starring Dominique Thorne.

In the preview for the comic book-based series, Thorne’s Riri Williams is on a mission to create the ultimate armor.

Riri, a genius inventor, made her debut in Coogler’s Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.

“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.”
