According to Deadline, Anthony Ramos will have a significant role to play in Ironheart. While it is unknown who he will portray, Anthony Ramos is anticipated to return in future Marvel Cinematic Universe productions beyond Ironheart, with the outlet comparing his position to Kang the Conqueror in 2021’s Loki.
