New Ironheart Trailer: To Protect People, Wakanda Forever's Riri Williams Must Think 'Outside The Box'

Tech genius Riri Williams takes advice from her late stepfather and breaks herself down in order to see what she is made of, in a new trailer for Marvel Television's Ironheart, below.

Premiering on Disney+ Tuesday, June 24 at 9/8c (with its first three episodes), Ironheart is set after the events of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever and "pits technology against magic when Dominique Thorne's Riri — determined to make her mark on the world — returns to her hometown of Chicago.

Riri's "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 synopsis tells us.

The series also stars Lyric Ross (This Is Us) as Riri's best friend Natalie Washington, Alden Ehrenreich (Solo: A Star Wars Story) as friend "Joe McGillicuddy," Manny Montana (Graceland) as Cousin John, Matthew Elam as Xavier Washington, Anji White as Riri's mother Ronnie, and Regan Aliyah (reportedly as Zelma Stanton).

"Ironheart is such a great character in publishing," says executive producer and 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 Marvel 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.
