Marvel Announces Black Panther 2 to Debut Iron Man Character Riri Williams aka Ironheart
Black Panther Wakanda Forever does not have an easy path in front of it. After the saddening loss of Chadwick Boseman last year, the future of the franchise was thrown through a loop along with everyone that loved the late actor.
Feige and Coogler were there to pick up the pieces of what was once Black Panther 2, and they worked to turn it into a project that would respect the story and world while also making it into something that Boseman would be proud of.
No story details are known, but most of the characters from the first film seem to be returning, with Shuri and M'Baku being among them. It's heavily rumored that an entirely new nation will be introduced in the film, that of Atlantis.
With Atlantis, of course, comes its ruler: Namor. It's very likely that both him and those he leads will be a big thorn in Wakanda's side when the film releases to the world.
Well now, during the press for Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, Kevin Feige has surprised the world with an unexpected addition to the cast: Ironheart.
IRONHEART TO DEBUT IN BLACK PANTHER 2
In an exclusive interview with Kevin Feige, the President of Marvel Studios confirmed to Comicbook.com that Dominique Thorne's Riri Williams will debut first in Black Panther Wakanda Forever ahead of her own solo Disney+ outing Ironheart.
"We're shooting Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, right now, and the character of Riri Williams, you will meet in Black Panther 2 first... She started shooting, I think, this week before her Ironheart series."
Just a day before this news was confirmed by Feige, @MsLizzieHill over at The Cosmic Circle actually confirmed this information, revealing that Riri Williams was set to debut in Black Panther Wakanda Forever, something she had previously hinted at in the past.
