Ironheart will go to "uncomfortable" places for viewers, "almost in the vein of Walter White or Tony Soprano," Marvel exec says

Exclusive: Marvel executive producer Sev Ohanian says Ironheart's Riri Williams goes down a similar path to some of TV's greatest antiheroes

The MIT student and inventor prodigy takes center stage in the new show, and it sounds like we're going to delve pretty deep into her psyche – in a way that executive producer Sev Ohanian compares to some of TV's greatest antiheroes. "Riri is brilliant yet flawed and finds herself going down a path that I'm not sure we've quite seen in the MCU," Ohanian says in the new issue of SFX magazine, which features Star Trek: Strange New Worlds on the cover and hits newsstands on Wednesday, June 18. Set after the events of 2022's Black Panther sequel, the show will see Riri return home to Chicago and cross paths with Parker Robbins, AKA the Hood (played by Anthony Ramos), who introduces her to dark arts and magic.
