Empire Magazine has shared a new behind-the-scenes image from Marvel Television's upcoming Ironheart series, featuring Hamilton and Transformers: Rise of the Beasts star Anthony Ramos as Parker Robbins, a.k.a. The Hood, and Good Girls actor Manny Montana as "Cousin John."

Whether Montana will turn out to be playing an established character from the comics remains to be seen, but Ramos will be taking on the role of a powerful magic-user in league with Mephisto.

Here's what the actor had to say about this new take on The Hood in a recent interview with EW.

"Parker Robbins in the comics is from New York, but being able to flip his story and making him from Chicago, we made him from Humboldt Park, which has, obviously, a large Puerto Rican population."

"We created this whole backstory with his mom being from the Young Lords and raising him that way. Chicago plays a huge part in the identity of all of our characters and the identity of this show, so I'm really excited for people to experience that. It was just a gift to be able to shoot there. It's an amazing city, one of the greatest cities in the world."

Ironheart follows Riri Williams as she "returns to her hometown of Chicago. There, she discovers secrets that bring technology and magic into conflict, leading her on an exciting and dangerous adventure."

In the comics, Riri is encouraged to suit-up and fight crime by Tony Stark, who becomes a mentor of sorts to the young hero. Stark's death in Avengers: Endgame would obviously make that particular dynamic very difficult to replicate, but Ironheart is expected to carry on Iron Man's legacy (to some extent, at least).

“Robert Downey Jr and I spoke just after we wrapped, and he shared some very lovely words about my journey,” star Dominique Thorne recalled during an interview with Empire. “He told me how excited he was and that he’s rooting for it, too. I literally got two thumbs up. It’s really reassuring to know you’re not embarrassing Iron Man.”

Ironheart also stars Lyric Ross, Regan Aliyah, Alden Ehrenreich, Matthew Elam, and Anji White. Sacha Baron Cohen is also rumored to make his MCU debut as Mephisto, though this has yet to be confirmed.

I think this show is going to surprise similar to Agatha
thedrudo
thedrudo - 5/8/2025, 9:23 AM
@MyCoolYoung - Maybe.

Weirdly I always kind of forget about Agatha despite liking it and the spooky October vibe.

Of those Disney+ shows I’d put Loki at 1 followed by Hawkeye and Agatha.

@MyCoolYoung - Im looking forward to it. The comments in the articles for the show are going to be so [frick]ing annoying. ill just want to talk about the episodes and have to sift through all the angry incels who have to really let us know they dont like the show or Disney.

I have been liking what I’m hearing and seeing about the show

@supermanrex - Yet, in almost every thread, one of you so called tolerant people comes in and calls a large nunber of people names because you disagree with them.

Maybe they just don't like the show. Maybe, most people won't like the show. Marvel has held on to this for a long time. Its been sitting on a shelf for years. If they were confident in it, they would have released it.

I don't know what the reason is but D+ is dying. This is due to years of not giving paying customers what they asked for. No one is obligated to give Disney their money.

@supermanrex - @CreateNowSlpL8r is 100% correct.

You're just another typical hypocrite instigator who lacks any tolerance themselves and doesn't know how to STFU and stop obsessing over things they can't control.

Take you social media educated lingo elsewhere. 🙃

@CreateNowSlpL8r - It's always interesting hearing someone explain why their dislike for someone is more powerful than someone else's likes for something. I think people in general don't have an issue with your opinion on something until you make it a mission to leave 20+ comments on an article bashing something. And then you take it up a notch and create your own article dedicated to bashing the same thing again. It comes off as obsessive.

@thedrudo - big praise for Hawkeye. I've legit never seen it rated that high.

But yeah Agatha was really good. I think everything we watch nowadays gets forgotten just from the stream of information we see everyday. It's actually kind of exhausting
MyCoolYoung
MyCoolYoung - 5/8/2025, 10:48 AM
@supermanrex - Yeah, it does get irritating, but the silver lining is that if it's as good as Agatha, they all start off talking shit, then eventually stop talking. They'd rather not talk than admit they're wrong, so fingers crossed.
MyCoolYoung
MyCoolYoung - 5/8/2025, 10:50 AM
@TheVisionary25 - Science vs. magic for the win. I hope they commit to it. I wonder what Coolger did as executive producer. That gives me hope.
TheVisionary25
TheVisionary25 - 5/8/2025, 11:06 AM
@MyCoolYoung - agreed , I like that concept

He seems to be pretty heavily involved with this and Eyes of Wakanda since he’s been with the cast for this at D23 & such so that is a good sign hopefully

@CreateNowSlpL8r - dont be a clown man. you know damn well the negative comments on this site dont just stop at im not a fan of the show. they go into whatever social, racist or political reason they think the show sucks. i could care less if someone said im just not looking forward to the show. its always followed by why the show is woke etc etc
supermanrex
supermanrex - 5/8/2025, 11:45 AM
@MyCoolYoung - i love that they think we should go away so they can fester the comments with their shit. i dont understand the mentality of people who not just dislikes but HATES a show or movie but waste their time commenting on articles that are about the show. i am were i am supposed to be because i like the show and want to interact with other people who like it. i dont go into comments on things ive never seen before or like. its a [frick]ing waste of time. i can have constructive conversations with people who just dislike a show just fine. its the incels that are ass.

@MyCoolYoung - I also enjoy sarcasm

McMurdo - 5/8/2025, 12:33 PM
@CreateNowSlpL8r - nothing you said here was wrong but you're better off not even taking the bait that @supermanrex chucks in the waters, bringing up controversy before it ever exists in the talk backs whilst safeguarding against any form of criticism with dog whistles. Is it tone deaf? Yes. Is it the other side of the same coin that @makeamerica utilizes in every thread? Ironically or perhaps unironically....also yes. But he wants people to respond accordingly. This is what happens with the terminally online, we become precisely what we aim to whine about on a daily basis. It's inevitable.
supermanrex
supermanrex - 5/8/2025, 12:39 PM
@McMurdo - i have stated on many occasions i dont care if people dont like a show or movie and have constructive critics and discussion. its the incels and racist and political talking points that are used in the arguments to show why something sucks. if you think it sucks because you just think it sucks so what. you know damn well what comments i am talking about and how they run rampant on this site.
MyCoolYoung
MyCoolYoung - 5/8/2025, 1:33 PM
@McMurdo - no sarcasm detected this way
McMurdo
McMurdo - 5/8/2025, 1:47 PM
@supermanrex - you're the one who began such discourse here though. There was none before you brought it to fruition here. You're a smart dude, acutely aware of what you are chumming in these talk backs.
MyCoolYoung
MyCoolYoung - 5/8/2025, 1:48 PM
@supermanrex - I say that all the time. I don't mind anyone saying they don't like the show or movie; we're here to discuss. If you can't add to a conversation about why you disliked it, or liked it, I don't really want to interact with you, and I usually don't. I give people the benefit of the doubt for a while, but then I just block which sucks because I never use to
CreateNowSlpL8r
CreateNowSlpL8r - 5/8/2025, 3:51 PM
@supermanrex - Let me put it differently. If I had to guess, you would prefer less negativity on the site. You'll never stop trolls so lets ignore them. What I am saying is by someone, not just you specifically, inviting conflict with an opening salvo, you are getting the exact opposite of what you want. Of course you have a point but so do the people you disagree with but its hard to make a serious argument if you are going to invite those people to the thread.

Imagine if my first post was "here come all the woke etc etc." Your instinct would have you respond in a way that doesn't discuss anything. Like honestly, who wants to live in a society where you think half the country is evil or lacks any moral values?

@MyCoolYoung - i should block but when they go to the incel route i have to fight. its frustrating that my escape is now infested with which i want to escape from.
Lucasberg
Lucasberg - 5/8/2025, 4:49 PM
@supermanrex - the incel insult is such a weird one. Why do you have to name call people you disagree with at all? Just ignore or engage by pointing out where you think the people you disagree with are in error. Incels for rightwing peeps isn't even accurate as most are religious and have children like rabbits lol
CreateNowSlpL8r
CreateNowSlpL8r - 5/8/2025, 4:57 PM
@SonOfAGif - You make a legit point except if you mean me specifically, I only started taking my comments and writing full blown articles when Nate suggested it. My opinion is, if Im going to shoot off my mouth, I should be willing to do the research to back up my argument. The tone of my articles is much different than my posts. I also try to evidence both sides of an argument unless my opinion is based on fundamentals. I get why you might feel that way but when I write, I send it to Nate. Its not at all like im just sitting around on my soapbox and go push an article out. Also, my articles take days to research (sometimes). Thats why I dont post them that much. I usually wind up with some huge document full of citations that I need to cut down before I transfer it over.

I also rarely call people names. Even in comments. I used to post under another id which isnt a secret and I was also being way too toxic. When I changed it, I announced it in the comments and to the admins directly. That is about as tranparant as you can be I feel like. That doesn't mean you have to agree with me though.
MyCoolYoung
MyCoolYoung - 5/8/2025, 6:10 PM
@supermanrex - that’s the thing, we come here way too much. Can’t need to run from an escape or we just don’t need to be here. These threads have changed. Many good people have left because of it. The old guard is almost gone. I’ve accepted it. I think about leaving daily, but while I’m here I’m going to block certain people and won’t feel bad. Visionary made me see that’s the way
supermanrex
supermanrex - 5/9/2025, 10:03 AM
@CreateNowSlpL8r - here's the thing they come in no matter what. if i post this movie is going to be awesome and i cant wait to watch it. the same assholes you say i provoke get provoked anyway by my positive comment and proceed to ruin my comment with their hateful incel like responses. i cant remember the last just plain anti response were they are like "oh good for you but that movie is not for me" comment response i have gotten. its mainly that movie sucks and your a liberal and woke Disney shill for liking it. they get away with this shit no matter what. im tired of sitting back and letting them just [frick] the vibe up without getting any push back to their antics.
supermanrex
supermanrex - 5/9/2025, 10:08 AM
@Lucasberg - because i am tired of being called a liberal who shills for Disney or whatever else they consider to be woke just because i post positive about the movie, show or comic. so i fight back now. i noticed a trend where other people on here are also pushing back against these assholes. they always wanna play the victim of being bullied for having an opinion when 9 times out of ten their opinion is an attack.
Lucasberg
Lucasberg - 5/9/2025, 11:59 AM
@supermanrex - fair enough.

Thing is, there has been a definite agenda from Disney to inject their Marvel and Disney properties with progressive values. These progressive values are often alien to the original source material and honestly have resulted in movies and content that is different from the source in meaningful ways. To me, I don't care if I agree with the characters in these movies, I just want them to be the actual characters they have been in the comics, movies etc.

Boba Fett for example in his D+ show was just painful. He's supposed to be above all else, self-interested. Instead, Disney transformed him into a benevolent protector of an oppressed city. Like what the actual EFF? Fett fans were begging for a Fett focused thing for over 4 decades and that's what Disney gave them? Did they give them that because Disney imagined this was the most faithful/exciting sort of translation of the Fett character onto the screen? I don't think so. Honestly, its like making a show about a guy that dresses up like Fett, but who is not actually Fett at all. And I believe Disney transformed Fett into the benevolent protector of the oppressed because they were injecting their own modern values into the character.

People are bad at making points, become jerks in so doing, and they generalize and all that, but there is something there, when a lot of people are being noisy is what I'm trying to say. You might disagree but hopefully you're also trying to understand why so many fans are noisy in their dislike of Marvel's and Star Wars' creative choices over the past 5-6 years.

@Lucasberg - i see what people are saying about Fett but i also see that it was awesome they developed him beyond just being a one dimensional killing machine caricature he had become in the EU and in so many peoples fan fictions and head canons. they just didnt execute it with the proper balance they had him more diplomat as the show went on after starting out having be a bad ass and surviving all that hell that tatooine threw at him. its when people started attributing it to Disney purposely making him soft so to meet woke agendas and all that bullshit that gets me fired up. They tried and misfired its that simple. they could have struck a balance ala netflix punisher where he softened up to the girl under his care but it also served as his motivation to be even more vicious and badass towards their enemies. overall boba fett was a fun watch for me.
Lucasberg
Lucasberg - 5/9/2025, 1:47 PM
@supermanrex - mostly agreed! I do actually see an agenda in all these D+ things. Its fine if you disagree. That was actually reported though that Disney creatives were delibberately injecting themse into their Star Wars and marvel media to service some social agenda. If you don't want to call it "woke" (which I will admit has become a catchall for "I don't like that thing and I'm conservative" lol) that's fine. The agenda has been, "were going to make these characters after our desired image" - instead of fashioning them to reflect the source material.

I had fun watching Fett at some points for sure and then I also became miserable on a number of occassions because of what they did to Fett lol.

@supermanrex - I get it. If you think there will never be assholes then you are kidding yourself. You weren't provoking it, you were inviting it whether you meant to or not. Guess what happens to trolls when you ignore them?

@DocSpock - you just know this is going to be terrible before they even release it. The complete lack of any publicity this close to its release just enforces that feeling.
TheFinestSmack
TheFinestSmack - 5/8/2025, 9:45 AM
@Spike101 - I think this was put together before Marvel shook things up and the show will definitely feel like it. They are sitting on it because the pros and cons of releasing it probably balance out lol. Shelve it and waste a ton of money and get criticism for ditching a show about Riri. Or release it and possibly endure a shitload of ragebait videos and critics trashing the whole thing.
