Chinaka Hodge, the creator of Ironheart, revealed that bringing the highly anticipated Marvel villain into the Disney+ series wasn't solely her choice.
Instead of tying up Ironheart's narrative neatly, the finale leaves multiple storylines unresolved, creating stronger connections to the broader MCU than many fans anticipated.
It's unclear whether these threads will continue in future MCU films, Disney+ shows, or potential new seasons of Ironheart—something Hodge now openly hopes for. One thing is certain: the characters, especially that major antagonist, play a key role in Marvel's long-term vision.
