Disney+ has released a trailer and set a June premiere date for Marvel Television series ‘Ironheart‘, which sees Dominique Thorne return as Riri Williams, who we last saw in ‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever’.
Set after the events of ‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever’, Marvel Television’s Ironheart pits technology against magic when Riri Williams, a young, genius inventor determined to make her mark on the world, returns to her hometown of Chicago. Her unique take on building iron suits is brilliant, but in pursuit of her ambitions, she finds herself wrapped up with the mysterious yet charming Parker Robbins, aka The Hood (played by Anthony Ramos).
The series also stars Lyric Ross (This Is Us), Alden Ehrenreich (Solo: A Star Wars Story), Manny Montana (Graceland), Matthew Elam, Anji White and Regan Aliyah.
“Ironheart is such a great character in publishing,” said Black Panther director/co-writer Ryan 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.”
Chinaka Hodge served as head writer on the series, with episodes directed by Sam Bailey and Angela Barnes. Executive producers include Hodge, Coogler, Kevin Feige, Louis D’Esposito, Brad Winderbaum, Zoie Nagelhout, Sev Ohanian and Zinzi Coogler.
‘Ironheart‘ launches with a 3-episode premiere on Wednesday, 25th June 2025, on Disney+ UK. It premieres June 24 at 6pm PT/ 9pm ET on Disney+ in the USA.
