The next question, though, is: Will Riri take over for Robert Downey Jr.’s Tony Stark in the Marvel Cinematic Universe?
Robert Downey Jr. is Iron Man for most people around the world, and he recently took to Twitter to declare his very positive feelings about this new development.
Downey decided to accompany his Tweet with the cover art for the first issue of the new Invincible Iron Man series, which prominently features Riri up front, with Tony Stark looking dapper as ever in the background.
Bendis revealed that Tony Stark discovers Riri after she enrolls at MIT at the age of 15, and then proceeds to build a replica Iron Man armor in her dorm room.
