From the set of Ironheart come some photos at night, with Dominique Thorne (aka Riri Williams ) in a suit for motion capture .
As we know, some costumes of the characters of the Marvel Cinematic Universe are made entirely in CGI, especially when it comes to hyper-technological armor like those of Iron Man . For Riri , Marvel Studios will use both physical costumes (as we’ve seen here ) and digital graphics, likely depending on the armor. Atlanta Filming did not want to reveal what Riri does in these shots, as he would be a spoiler.
As we know, Riri will build the most advanced MCU armor since Tony Stark , using reverse engineering. The very young heroine will debut in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever , where we will see at least the Mark I armor . However, the release of the series is expected on Disney + for 2023: it will consist of six episodes and will be part of Phase 5.
You can see the photos below.
