Iron Man Disney+ Spin-off, Ironheart, Receives Promising Updates

Ironheart is one of the upcoming shows on the Disney+ slate of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The series is set to revolve around the story of Riri Williams, a tech genius who manages to create a highly advanced suit similar to Robert Downey Jr.'s Iron Man. The lead hero will be portrayed by Dominique Thorne, and she will be joined by a stellar cast that includes Anthony Ramos, Lyric Ross, and Harper Anthony. 

Plot details of Ironheart are still being kept under wraps, but Marvel Studios have already confirmed that Riri Williams will first make her MCU debut during Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. The series is also rumored to tie into Armor Wars, a project centered around Tony Stark's best friend, James Rhodes.
