While doing the rounds of the press for Black Panther: Wakanda ForeverDominique Thorne was asked about the recent Stone heart rumors involving Mephisto. However, during her interview with ComicBook.com, Thorne refused to even reference Mephisto when asked about her potential role on the show.
“Oh man, the show is on its way,” Thorne told the site. “We just wrapped filming, in fact, on November 2 and I think fans have a lot to sink their teeth into, especially if they enjoyed what they got to see of Riri Williams in a whole another world that wasn’t his. I think they could have a good time, stepping into a world that’s his.
