Ironheart Interview: Dominique Thorne & Anthony Ramos on the Antiheroic Nature of Their Characters
53At long last, Ironheart is streaming on Disney+, bringing us up to speed on what's going on with Dominique Thorne's Riri Williams after the events of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. In this interview, Collider's Steve Weintraub chats with Thorne and Anthony Ramos, who plays Parker, a.k.a. The Hood, to discuss the motivations behind these two opposing forces.
In the show, genius inventor Riri heads back home to Chicago from MIT, where she finds herself embroiled in a battle of technology versus magic after aligning herself with the enigmatic Parker Robbins (Ramos). Ironheart also stars Alden Ehrenreich, Lyric Ross, Zoe Terakes, Eric André, Jim Rash, and more.
In the spoiler-free half of our conversation, Williams and Ramos comment on why it took so long for Ironheart to take flight after executive producer Ryan Coogler's Wakanda Forever (2022). They also talk about the inspiration and motivations of their two characters, who challenge the notion of greatness with each of their abilities. Thorne also addresses the "iconic" television antiheroes that Riri's choices could be compared to.
