Marvel Reveals Secret Invasion, Thunderbolts, And More

Mutants and fantastic families didn’t grace Saturday’s D23 presentation, though Kevin Feige had other snippets of information to reveal for the various Marvel projects in production. With the slate of Phases 5 and 6 still fresh in our minds from San Diego Comic-Con, Feige took the time to pull back the curtain a little more. Following footage from Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, director Ryan Coogler joined Feige on stage to focus on Ironheart. Dominque Thorne will play the title character, aka Riri Williams, in Wakanda Forever before she jumps to her own solo show. In addition to showing off a little bit of footage of Riri in one of her armoured suits, the footage also confirmed that Anthony Ramos will be playing Parker Robbins, aka the Hood. Feige was then joined by Paul Rudd, Jonathan Majors, and Evangeline Lilly for Ant-Man & the Wasp: Quantumania. Rudd teased that the film would be “unlike anything you’ve ever seen from us.” We’ll have a full write-up of that soon, along with one for The Marvels. As for everything else…
