“We’re shooting Black Panther: Wakanda Forever right now, and the character of Riri Williams, you will meet in Black Panther 2 first,” Marvel Studios President/Marvel Chief Creative Officer Kevin Feige recently confirmed. “She started shooting, I think, this week before her Ironheart series.”
Created by Brian Michael Bendis, Mike Deodato, Eve Ewing, and Kevin Libranda, Riri Williams debuted in 2016’s Invincible Iron Man #7. The character is a 15-year-old teenage genius who uses her immense intelligence to reverse-engineer Tony Stark’s armor, eventually taking up the moniker of Ironheart.
