When is Ironheart Coming to the MCU?
Ahead of her titular series in 2023, Ironheart, Riri Williams will be making her MCU debut on Black Panther: Wakanda Forever played by Dominique Thorne. She is neither from Wakanda or Talocan but she hails from Chicago. Riri Williams will be taking flight as Ironheart in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, presumably coming from the facility that T’Challa and Shuri opened in the end of Black Panther. She is a genius engineer who invented her own suit much like Tony Stark as she makes her own path to being a superhero. What makes it exciting is that she will be working with Shuri, another genius around the same age. The 19-year-old student will be taking part in the sequel before her very own series. Ironheart is slated to be the 11th MCU series to arrive on Disney Plus coming in late 2023 with six episodes lined-up. There is no definite release date yet for the show but it is currently under production.
