Marvel's highly-anticipated series Ironheart is set to star Dominique Thorne as Riri Williams, a genius inventor and creator of the most advanced suit of armor since Iron Man. The character was first introduced in 2016 in the Marvel comics and was created by Brian Michael Bendis and artist Mike Deodato.

Williams, in the comics, is a 15-year-old MIT student who reverse-engineers Iron Man's armor to create one of her own. Tony Stark, a.k.a Iron Man, eventually takes notice and encourages her to pursue the life of a superhero. The upcoming Disney+ series will have six episodes in total and also have Chinaka Hodge as one of the head writers.

Ramos' secret role in Ironheart is being compared to the one Jonathan Majors served in Loki, where he is expected to not only have a big role in this series but also a future in upcoming Marvel projects.

The premiere date of the series has not yet been announced but Williams is expected to make her debut in the MCU with Black Panther: Wakanda Forever in November 2022.
