The series, which was confirmed to be part of MCU's next phase at San Diego Comic-Con, will follow Thorne's character – a genius inventor who creates a suit of armor that rivals that of Tony Stark AKA Iron Man.

The forthcoming show is slated to debut after the second respective seasons of What If...?, Secret Invasion, and Loki.

2023 is shaping up to be a big year for the Broadway alum. With a possible debut in the MCU along with his lead role in the forthcoming film Transformers: Rise of the Beasts, it seems Ramos' career is just getting started.
