Each advance for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever alludes to one of the minor characters that could play a key role in the next phases of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It’s about Ironheart. alter ego Riri Williams, played by Dominic Thorne. This is nothing but a natural replacement for Iron Man..
The first footage regarding Riri Williams was revealed during the first trailer for the film. Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. In them you can see a young woman who beats the element until it forms an iron heart. The symbolic detail already said enough about the character, although no further details were known. This girl turns into Iron Heart during filming.
This presentation might not only be exciting for his followers, but also relevant to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It is worth remembering how Tony Stark, played by Robert Downey Jr., appeared in history: inside the cave, a businessman and genius began to forge his own armor. Riri Williams is not in that position, but the creative process evokes that beginning.
Ironheart in comics
While much of the Marvel Cinematic Universe is supported by iconic characters, figures who have crossed the pages for years to become popular heroes and have various representations, Ironheart doesn’t quite fit that profile. This is a much younger character than, for example, Captain America and Thor.
To get a sense of the above, Ironheart debuted in Marvel comics less than a decade ago. did it in Invincible Iron Man, Volume 2, Number 7, released in May 2016. This first appearance was a cameo. Then, two issues later, it made its first full appearance. This character is credited to Brian Michael Bendis, art by Mike Deodato, 2015.. However, the character was redesigned by Eva Ewing and Kevin Libranda.
What is the history of Iron Heart? Beneath this armor is Riri Williams, an engineering student. She is 15 years old and the daughter of Riri Williams Sr., who passed away, leaving her in the care of her mother and paternal aunt Sharon. Most of his professional training takes place at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, a kind of academy for young people with higher IQs in the field of comics.
Based on her knowledge and admiration for Iron Man, she begins working on the armor. What is the trick of this invention? He designed it from materials from other Iron Man armor taken from the institute’s campus. It gets more complicated when they find out how he developed his project. But he flies away. AT Black Panther: Wakanda Foreverhis latest trailer has already revealed an image of him flying away as well.
His appearance in the trailer
from Black Panther: Wakanda Forever
First appearance was in the initial preview of the sequel Black Panther (2018). In it, Riri Williams forms an iron heart. He does it at the Wakanda Research Center. It should be remembered that as soon as this region opens up to the world, issues such as academic exchanges also arise.
So it is likely that Riri Williams is part of a privileged group of young people who have been given the opportunity to learn with the technology and knowledge stored in Wakanda. After that, in another advance on Black Panther: Wakanda Forever she is seen again in the same place. After this image, she is seen running away and yelling “Go!” Enough information to understand that his experiment will succeed and little by little he will fill an empty place in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
