Earlier this month we let comic book fans know that a change was coming to the Iron Man series.
The writer Brian Michael Bendis introduced us to 15-year-old Riri Williams, the college student that is next in line to wear the Iron Man suit after reverse engineering it in her dorm room.
Now more details from the new Iron Man installment has been revealed. According to Blavity, its co-creator Mike Deodato Jr. let anticipating fans know that Disney Channel starlet, Skai Jackson, inspired Riri Williams’ appearance.
Now we know Skai is known for a good clapback at the young age of 14, but it’s pretty dope that she’s out here inspiring Marvel to create new superheroes. Although no film has yet to be announced, we’re hoping that she’s definitely considered for the role.
