How to watch newest MCU show ‘Ironheart’: Release time, more

The Marvel Cinematic Universe has taken on technology, and more recently, magic has played a major role in the evolving storylines, but the latest installment follows what happens when the two clash.

“Magic vs. machines” will be a major theme in “Ironheart,” which premieres tonight, June 24, exclusively on Disney+.

Dominique Thorne will return to play the titular hero, also known as Riri Williams, after making her MCU debut in 2022’s “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.” Riri is a genius inventor and MIT student who builds a suit of armor that rivals Tony Stark’s Iron Man gear.

The new series follows Riri in the aftermath of the events in “Wakanda Forever,” as her outlook on being Ironheart changes. She returns home to Chicago and finds herself entangled with the enigmatic Parker Robbins a.k.a. The Hood(Anthony Ramos), who introduces her to secrets that pit technology against magic.

What to watch before ‘Ironheart’:

If you only have time to brush up on one MCU installment before diving into “Ironheart,” make it “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.” The 2022 sequel to “Black Panther” introduced Dominique Thorn’s Riri Williams into the MCU, and is still the character’s only live action appearance ahead of the new series.

Thorn reprised her role as Riri in “What If… the Emergence Destroyed the Earth?,” a Season 3 episode of the animated MCU anthology series “What If…?”.

Since Riri’s tech is, as her name implies, inspired by Tony Stark’s Iron Man tech, the three “Iron Man” movies may also make a great addition to your watchlist, and the “Doctor Strange” duology could be helpful, as “Ironheart” trailers have hinted at magic use.

All of these Marvel titles can be streamed on Disney+.
