Marvel Studios has unveiled the first trailer for Ironheart, the highly anticipated Disney+ series set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Dominique Thorne returns as Riri Williams, the tech-savvy genius who dons the Ironheart armor, after her introduction in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever in 2022. Joining her is Anthony Ramos, who plays Parker Robbins, also known as The Hood. The trailer offers a glimpse into the series, which will delve into Riri's transformation into a standalone superhero following her supporting role in the MCU.

The trailer hints at a complex relationship between Riri and The Hood, with Robbins initially appearing to mentor Riri in realizing her full potential. However, it's evident that The Hood's intentions may not be entirely straightforward.

Ironheart, executive produced by Ryan Coogler, is set to premiere with a three-episode launch on June 24 at 6pm PT/9pm ET on Disney+. The series follows Riri as she reflects on her time in Wakanda as an "internship abroad." After being expelled from MIT, she faces a pivotal decision prompted by The Hood: "Anyone who has accomplished anything has to do questionable things. Are you in or out?"

The trailer showcases thrilling action sequences, including Riri suiting up as Ironheart, taking flight, and engaging in combat. In one dramatic scene, she grounds herself to deliver a powerful punch that sends a truck soaring over her head.
