Ironheart's First Clips Premiere At D23

Ever since Disney announced plans to cut back on the number of Marvel shows heading to Disney+, the Black Panther: Wakanda Forever spin-off series, Ironheart, has been kind of on the backburner. But at D23, Marvel finally debuted some new footage of Dominique Thorne reprising her role as Riri Williams in her own show.

Marvel hasn’t dropped any of the Ironheart clips online yet, but we can tell you that Riri is back at MIT, and she no longer has the same resources that she had in Wakanda Forever. Community’s Jim Rash reappears as the Dean of MIT from Captain America: Civil War, and it seems like Riri may be expelled from the school.

More than anything else, Riri wants to rebuild her Ironheart armor. That’s where Anthony Ramos’ Parker Robbins comes in. Parker may not be The Hood yet, but he’s leading Riri down a dark path as they steal what she needs for the suit. The early look at her new armor seems more handmade than the suit she built in Wakanda. Riri also seems to realize that what she’s doing is wrong, but she still does it anyway.

Executive producer Ryan Coogler, as well as Thorne, and other cast members were at Marvel’s D23 presentation. And they confirmed that Ironheart will premiere on Disney+ in 2025.

In the meantime, the Daredevil: Born Again trailer thrilled D23’s crowd, as did the Human Torch’s costume in The Fantastic Four: First Steps. Star Wars was well-represented by a trailer for Skeleton Crew and the first footage from The Mandalorian and Grogu. Toy Story 5 is also on the way, and Avatar 3 finally has a name.
