Complete spoilers follow immediately to Iron heart.
Iron heart He has deactivated his thrusters. His last three episodes landed on July 1 or 2 (depending on where he lives), with the arrival of the trio marking the end of the Marvel television program race in Disney+.
Or do it? The last final of the Marvel Project Phase 5 is full of unresolved plot threads that suggest that Riri Williams’ stories (Dominique Thorne) and Parker Robbins (Anthony Ramos) have just begun in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Add the debut of a long -awaited Marvel villain and other interesting things that could affect the progress of MCU, and Iron heart It could be more important for the MCU of what we realized.
But sufficient babbling. Let’s take a look at the most important questions about Iron heartE finishing and I will do everything possible to answer them.
Who is Mephisto in Ironheart? And what actor does it interpret in the MCU?
Let’s first address the second question because it is easier to answer: Mephisto is played by Sacha Baron Cohen – BORAT, Ali gand Chicago 7 Judgment Fame – In the MCU.
The appearance of Cohen will not surprise some MCU devotees. First it was linked to the role of Mephisto in October 2022, those reports that arrived 18 months after Marvel fans convinced Mephisto to be presented as the main antagonist of Wandavisión. As it happened, Agatha Harkness was that great evil. However, fans have longed for the day Mephisto would finally make their arch at Marvel cinema.
As for whom (or what) Mephisto is: it is Marvel Comics’ Takes on Mephistophyls, the lord of the demon who appears in the Germanic fable Splendor. Mephisto is also an alias del Diablo, also known as the mythical personification of evil that praises him about the kingdom known as hell in many religions.
But let’s go back to Marvel version about Mephisto. Presented for the first time at the comic ‘Silver Surfer #3’ In December 1968, the demonic entity is a recurrent adversary of the Silver Surfer, Ghost Rider and Spider-Man in Marvel’s literature, although it is also crossed with Dr. Strange, Doctor Doom, Scarlet Witch and Myriad other heroes and Marvel villas.
He is also more famous for being responsible for the disappearance of Peter Parker’s marriage and Mary Jane Watson. In fact, in the incredibly divisive comic history ‘Spider-Man: One More Day’, Mephisto made a deal with the couple to save the life of Aunt May in exchange for the formal union of her love, which angered fans of web life.
As for skills, Mephisto is, as expected, one of the most powerful beings in the Marvel universe. It has all the usual superhuman powers, but it is its ability to change rest events, before they occur and take advantage of the greatest fears of people and/or their trauma that makes it a threat.
It is the last of those skills, along with their vast magical powers, which allows you to deform reality and manipulate people and negotiate with them for something they want. In general, compensation is the soul of the other individual, of which Mephisto takes possession once an agreement is formally agreed.
Well, what is the deal with him appearing for the first time in Iron heart? He is the individual who rescues Parker Robbins after the latter and the embedded break into Parker’s father. Then, convinces Parker to get to a deal: Mephisto will give him a hooded layer with dark magic infusion, so that Parker can commit petty crimes and get rich, in exchange for the soul of Parker.
Who dies in Ironheart?
Nobody. The homonymous hero survives, like the villain of Anthony Ramos in Parker Robbins/The Hood and the secondary antagonist of Alden Ehrenreich, Zeke Stane.
In fact, Iron heart Bring an inverse card and bring someone behind the dead. After she defeats the hood when removing the source of her powers (also known as her layer), Riri goes to the exit of Affecture, also known as the Ruin Pizza Restaurant that the hood made her hide and hide and hide and.
On the way, however, she plays with Mephisto, who cheats her to become her next victim. Mephisto, whose true form can be seen in a shot easily getting lost when he hits a teaspoon on the side of a cup of coffee during this long individual conversation, reaches an agreement with Riri to relive Natalie Washington (Lyric Ross). Remember, Natalie is Riri’s best friend, who was killed in a shooting in a shooting years ago, and is based on the one that Natalie creates, Riri artificial intelligence.
In return, Mephisto gets Riri’s soul. In fact, after Riri shakes his hand with Mephisto, we are aware of a highly emotional meeting between Riri and the Reborn Natalie. However, while the couple hugs, Riri’s right forearm is covered by the same fire -style skin marks that adorned Parker’s body every time he used their cape and/or powers.
With Riri’s soul now apparently linked to Mephisto, it will be fascinating to see when he realizes that this is the case, and if she and/or Natalie sacrifice the second opportunity of the latter’s life to free Riri from the pact that this defective hero has done.
Does Ironheart have a medium or post-créditos credit scene?
Yes and no. Iron heart It has a mid -credits sting, but there is no final loan scene to stay.
With regard to the first, we see that Parker now Cloakes visits Stanton’s. That is the confectionery store that is a front for the Stanton family, which deals with the mystical and the hidden.
Anyway, when entering the store, Parker is received by Zelma Stanton (read my Iron heart Delivery guide and character for more information about it), who recruits the welcome spiel that we hear for the first time in episode 4. Parker, however, immediately sees through the facade of Zelma and informs him that he knows about things in the back, that is, the magical baratijas and the knowledge in the possession of the Stanton. Parker then tells Zelma that he is looking for someone more “experienced” and “supreme” of what she is before the screen is cut to Black.
Clearly, Parker is interested in finding one of the two people: Stephen Strange, also known as Doctor Strange, or the supreme sorcerer/current teacher of mystical arts in the favorite Wong of MCU fans. Taking into account that Strang is out of the world that deals with the consequences of Doctor Strange 2I suspect that Parker wants to find Wong to learn more about magic. Is it for the right reasons because you have delivered a new blade in your life, or seeks more knowledge of dark magic to take revenge on Riri and Mephisto? Who knows, but this is not the last thing we have seen from Parker.
Will there be a second Ironheart season?
We don’t know. Unlike your big screen offers: read my articles on how to see Marvel movies in order and the best Marvel films while here, Marvel rarely tells us if the main character of a program will return in a second season once his final sequence of final loans has shot. The only time I can remember that the comic giant did it was with season 1 of LokiWith a mid -credits stinger that indicate that “Loki will return in season 2”.
Apart from Tom Hiddleston’s star series, Marvel has only renewed another three shows: Daredevil: born againwhose second season is currently in development and animated offers Your friendly Spider-Man neighborhood and And if…?. The second year season of the first is also in active development, while the second was executed for three seasons between 2022 and 2024.
The possibilities of Iron heart Season 2 is green, so they are not too high. Of course, its 86% critical score in Rotten Tomatoes suggests that it should be, but their mixed audience qualification indicates that spectators in general would not be devastated if a second season did not occur.
In my opinion, it is much more likely that Williams, Robbins and/or Mephisto appear in other MCU projects. Williams could be part of Marvel’s Long-Rumored cast Young Avengers project. Based on the scene of the Ironheart middle credits, Robbins could appear in another rumored Disney+ called program Strange Academywhich could star in Benedict Wong Supreme’s sorcerer and explore the mystical arts in more detail. As for Mephisto, given his story shared with Spider-Man, it would be too much to ask for a cameo in Spider-Man: New day? Probably, but the strangest things have happened.
