Alden Ehrenreich is poised to join another Disney mega-franchise. The Solo: A Star Wars Story star has joined the cast of Marvel and Disney+’s Ironheart series in an undisclosed role. The series stars Dominique Thorne (If Beale Street Could Talk) as Riri Williams, a genius inventor who creates a suit that rivals Tony Stark’s Iron Man creation. Williams quickly takes on the mantle of Ironheart becoming a superhero in her own right. The six-episode series will be part of Marvel’s Phase Four, and is expected to premiere in 2023. The character will make her onscreen debut in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, which hits theaters in November.
Ehrenreich’s character hasn’t been revealed yet, but he’ll be joining Anthony Ramos (In the Heights), Manny Montana (Mayans M.C.), and Lyric Ross (This Is Us). Ehrenreich most recently appeared as John in Peacock’s adaptation of Brave New World and will appear in Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer in 2023.
We’ll have to wait and see who Ehrenreich is playing, and what his role will be in the Marvel cinematic universe. The series is currently filming in Atlanta and Chicago.
