Marvel Studios has unveiled the first trailer for the highly anticipated Disney+ series, Ironheart. This marks the return of Dominique Thorne as Riri Williams, the young genius who donned the Ironheart suit in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. Alongside Thorne, Anthony Ramos steps into the role of Parker Robbins, also known as The Hood, adding a new layer of intrigue to the series. The trailer, embedded below, offers a glimpse into Riri's transformative journey from a supporting character to a standout superhero in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).

In Ironheart, Parker Robbins appears as a mentor figure to Riri, aiming to unlock her full potential. However, the trailer hints at a deeper, more complex character beneath the surface. The series, executive produced by Ryan Coogler, is set to premiere with a three-episode launch on June 24 at 6pm PT/9pm ET exclusively on Disney+.

Riri reflects on her Wakanda experience as an "internship abroad," but her journey takes a dramatic turn when she's expelled from MIT. This pivotal moment prompts The Hood to challenge her: "Anyone who has accomplished anything has to do questionable things. Are you in or out?" The trailer showcases thrilling action sequences, including Riri suiting up, taking flight, and even grounding herself to deliver a powerful punch that sends a truck soaring over her head.
