The Emmy-nominated Hamilton and In the Heights star is joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe with a key role on Disney+'s Ironheart, starring Dominique Thorne as Marvel character Riri Williams, a genius inventor and creator of the most advanced suit of armor since Iron Man. "While details behind the Ramos role are unknown, sources say it will be similar to how Jonathan Majors was introduced as Kang the Conquer in Loki, where he is expected to not only have a big role in this series but in future Marvel projects as well," reports Deadline's Nellie Andreeva. Snowpiercer writer Chinaka Hodge was recently tapped to lead Ironheart. Williams is expected to make her debut in the MCU in the upcoming Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. Last year, in addition to starring in HBO's In Treatment revival, Ramos earned an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie for Disney+'s Hamilton.
