    Given the two movies that she was in before I going to say that whoever suggested her, is well respected in the industry.

    Yeah, it makes sense that she probably had the right connections. But even then, it seems weird that they didn't even consider holding auditions for Riri when they did for every other new character coming to Disney+.

    It's odd to me. Has anyone here actually seen her in anything?

    If you have someone picture for a role-stuff like this happens.

    Abrams wanted John Boyega for Finn from the start. If he had more power-Boyega wouldn't have gone through all those auditions to get the role-he now regrets.

    Samuel L Jackson probably didn't audition for Nick Fury.

    If they wanted that role filled that fast I would suspect Riri being in other stuff before that show was the reason. Or someone ELSE wanted her.

    I knew about SLJ but didn't know that about Boyega

    He didn't. I think there was an agreement made when the Ultimate comics started using his likeness. If Fury appears in the movies, I want to play him, he said. They agreed, and sure enough, he got cast in Iron Man.

    Do y'all think Riri will change "update" her armor as frequently as Tony, or will she keep her current look for years like Tony's classic armor from the 60's thru the mid-80's? And will pink, gold and black always be it's color scheme?

    I think it's too soon to be giving her a new armor after she just found a distinct, definitive, look for herself.

    I'm still reading up on her, but does she have any extra powers besides the basic flying/strength?

    I don't think she has that many different gadgets than what you might expect to see in an Iron Man armor.

    Oh ok. I know Miles has extra powers aside from Peter's basic set, so I was wondering if Riri got upgrades too.

    From what I've read of her, she's ok. I don't quite get the hate yet. Plus lots of characters go through rough patches.
