The series was largely filmed in Chicago, Illinois, which is Riri Williams' hometown in the comic books. To create an authentic feel, an effort was made to incorporate iconic Chicago landmarks and culture into the series.
When the series premiered, Robert Downey Jr. called Dominique Thorne to personally congratulate her.
Marks the first standalone appearance of the character Riri Williams in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, following her introduction in the film Pantera Negra: Wakanda por siempre (2022).
