Marvel Studios has been introducing a lot of new characters to the audiences over the last year. This includes the likes of Monica Rambeau to Kate Bishop and now Moon Knight's many personalities. The trend is set to keep going with another big character set to make their grand entrance later this year in  Black Panther: Wakanda Forever : Riri Williams. The character is played by Dominique Thorne and will show up on the movie side of the MCU before debuting in her own Disney+ series. Riri first showed up in the comics back in 2016, where her genius level of intelligence led to her building her own Iron Man armor in the wake of Tony Stark going into a coma. So, naturally, she starts fighting crime in his stead—Riri even gets a Stark-based AI system in her suit. ADVERTISEMENT Details on her first appearance in the  Black Panther  sequel are sparse.

MCU Theory Explains How Iron Man’s EDITH Will Return In Phase 4

Image
Spider-Man: Far From Home introduced a new AI created by Tony Stark, which Stark gifted to Tom Holland's Peter Parker. This technology was named EDITH, an artificial intelligence security and defense system with an acronym that stood for "Even Dead, I’m The Hero." The AI glasses served as an integral part of the sequel's narrative, essentially proving to be an advantage and disadvantage over the course of the movie.  Initially, Holland's Peter was the only one who could access the complex AI, thus giving him access to tactical drones from Stark Industries' satellite. This dangerous weapon eventually fell into the wrong hands, with Peter openly giving it to Jake Gyllenhaal's Mysterio - Far From Home 's main villain.  ADVERTISEMENT While the sequel ends with Peter successfully defeating Mysterio and regaining access to EDITH, Far From Home proved that this AI is a terrifying weapon that could quickly become a threat if l...
