The year 2025 has been pretty packed with Marvel, between the movies and shows dropping this year and teases of future media on the horizon. But we haven’t heard much about the next show coming to Disney+—until now. Today’s trailer for Marvel’s Ironheart brings a young and well-armed Avenger into the spotlight.
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever introduced audiences to Riri Williams (Dominque Thorne), an MIT genius who built her own Iron Man-esque armored suit and helped the Wakandans fight the Talokanil.
She may have left her suit behind in Wakanda, but she hasn’t given up trying to make new ones that truly establish her as the next big talent. While back home in Chicago, she crosses paths with Parker Robbins (Anthony Ramos), a misfit with a hood that lets him use dark magic and wants her to be a part of what he’s building up. Things seem good at first, but once she starts getting wise to the shadier parts of his dealings, Riri’s gotta armor up and protect Chicago and her loved ones.
Ironheart has been previously billed as a clash between tech and magic, and the former gets the most play in this trailer. Watching Riri DIY her way out of situations and build (or use) her armored suits really cements her brains and carries over her youthful energy from Wakanda. How much magical (and monstrous) things get with Robbins in the picture as he grows into the Hood—a recurring street-level baddie in the comics—will likely be saved for the actual show.
Marvel has also released a new poster for the series, which you can check out below.
