Robert Downey Jr. Makes Video Shoutout to Dominique Thorne Expressing His Support - "Iron Man Loves Ironheart"
The Marvel series Ironheart hits Disney+ next week, and stars Dominique Thorne and Anthony Ramos made an appearance on Good Morning America to promote the show. While talking about the story and their characters, Riri Williams, aka Ironheart, and Parker Robbins, aka The Hood, the show’s host offered the guests a video surprise.
Iron Man actor Robert Downey Jr., who is currently in London shooting Avengers: Doomsday, appeared in the video sporting a Pinewood Studios hat, and he started off by throwing Ironheart some love, saying, "Miss Thorne, I couldn't be happier than seeing you bringing Riri Williams to life."
He went on to jokingly express reservations about Ramos’s Hood, saying, "But the Hood has me nervous. Is the hood green? Please tell me Mr. Ramos is not replacing me as Doctor Doom via Parker Robbins?"
The former Iron Man actor ended the message with heart with his hands, telling Thorne, "Iron Man loves Ironheart."
Thorne replied, "Ironheart loves Iron Man too," and gushed about the support that Downey Jr. has thrown her way in recent months, saying, "He has been so supportive. It's really been amazing. Shortly after we finished filming in Chicago is when I got the first phone call from him, and he has been so sweet, like, through and through. So the support, it means so much. It really does."
Ironheart is set to debut on Disney+ on June 24th, with the first three episodes dropping that day, and the final three episodes releasing weekly after that. Check out the video below, and let us know if you’re going to be tuning in.
