First Look: ‘Ironheart’ Teaser Trailer and Poster

Whatever you do, don’t read the comment section under Marvel Television’s Ironheart trailer on YouTube. Browsing it isn’t good for your mental health.

The trailer, one of the first real marketing pieces ahead of the series’ debut on June 24, 2025 on Disney+, reintroduces Dominique Thorne as Riri Williams. Thorne first played the role in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever and now finally reprises the titular character for the series.

“Ironheart is such a great character in publishing,” said Black Panther: Wakanda Forever director Ryan Coogler. “In 2016, Brian Michael Bendis created a character who would be a successor of sorts to the Iron Man legacy. In the comic book, Riri Williams and Tony Stark had a relationship—she was a student at MIT who came from an almost polar opposite background as Tony, but they came together in their passion to better society. Eventually, the character gets her own identity as Ironheart, and other writers like Eve Ewing picked up from there, taking Riri Williams to Chicago.”

The series’ cast also includes Anthony Ramos (as Parker Robbins/The Hood), Lyric Ross, Alden Ehrenreich, Regan Aliyah, Manny Montana, Matthew Elam, and Anji White.

“Set after the events of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, Ironheart pits technology against magic when Riri—determined to make her mark on the world—returns to her hometown of Chicago,” reads Disney+’s synopsis. “Her unique take on building iron suits is brilliant, but in pursuit of her ambitions, she finds herself wrapped up with the mysterious yet charming Parker Robbins aka The Hood.”

Chinaka Hodge is the head writer, with Sam Bailey and Angela Barnes directing. Hodge, Kevin Feige, Louis D’Esposito, Brad Winderbaum, Zoie Nagelhout, Ryan Coogler, Sev Ohanian, and Zinzi Coogler serve as executive producers.
