Marvel Studios has released a trailer featuring Iron Man's debut in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.
In a trailer replete with first looks at Marvel's projects, a glimpse at Ironheart shows Riri Williams striving to "Build something undeniable" as the series' presumed villain, The Hood, asserts that being iconic requires doing some "Questionable things." The footage includes some high-octane shots of Ironheart in her suit of armor flying through the street and toppling a speeding truck. Anthony Ramos' Parker Robbins, AKA The Hood, is the only other character featured as he delivers his ominous line. Check out the full trailer below.
What The Ironheart Trailer Reveals
Riri Williams Is Building Bigger And Better Suits
The Ironheart trailer is short but still somewhat revealing. After debuting in a high-tech vibranium suit in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, Riri Williams appears to be striving to create bigger and better suits, much like her late predecessor. The white suit seen in the footage appears designed to be physically imposing, increasing Riri's stature to such a degree that she can make short work of a truck. Shots of her donning the suit are also reminiscent of Iron Man's Mark XLII armor as it appears to propel and attach to Riri piece by piece.
Footage revealed exclusively at D23 in August revealed that Riri Williams has been expelled from MIT and initially works with Parker Robbins to build a new suit.
It remains unclear whether Parker Robbins will be the primary antagonist, meanwhile, though his statement about doing "Questionable things" certainly hints that he will be acting nefariously. It could also suggest that Riri will be the one to act questionably as she can be seen toppling the truck as Robbins says his line. The trailer also confirms that Ironheart will be released between Daredevil: Born Again on March 4 and Eyes of Wakanda on August 6.
Our Take On The Ironheart Trailer
Riri Williams' Armor Looks Amazing
Marvel Studios is under pressure to ensure that Ironheart hits the mark with fans in a landscape where the studio has struggled to justify the volume of its output. This trailer has bolstered my confidence in the show as Riri Williams' new suit of armor looks incredible within an action-packed sequence of events. Additionally, the obscure villain, The Hood, looks like a compelling new character set to bolster the MCU's magic-s. While I'm holding out hope that Armor Wars will still be released, Ironheart looks like a fitting tribute to Iron Man's legacy in the meantime.
Set after Dominique Thorne's MCU debut in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, Marvel Studios' Ironheart series follows Riri Williams as she follows in Iron Man's steps as a high-tech superhero and crosses paths with Anthony Ramos' Parker Robbins a.k.a. The Hood, a magic with ties to the dark arts. The six-episode Disney+ series is part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe's Phase 5.
