Details continue to come to light on “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever,” the third premiere of the year for Marvel. The film, which finished its complicated shoot just a couple of months ago, is slated to hit theaters in November. On this occasion, after the leak of the first images of Shuri and Okoye, it is the turn of the successor of Iron Man.
“Black Panther: Wakanda Forever” will be in charge, among many other things, to introduce us to some new characters such as Ironheart. This character will be played by actress Dominique Thorne, who will play the role of Riri Williams, a brilliant student capable of reinventing the Iron Man outfit and making it her own. Williams will appear in this sequel to “Black Panther” and then continue her journey as the lead in the new Disney series, “Ironheart”..
Merchandise from the film leaked via Twitter, so we got a glimpse of the first Ironheart armor design. In a first T-shirt, Williams appears in her matching Ironheart dress, accompanied by Princess Shuri (Letitia Wright), Nakia (Lupita Nyong’o) and Okoye (Danai Gurira). In the second, you can see more clearly the new armor which has a certain resemblance to that of Tony Stark, but much more futuristic and armored.
