Shea Couleé is in a superhero show, baby.

The star of “RuPaul’s Drag Race,” winner of “RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars,” and finalist on “RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars All Winners,” has joined the Marvel Studios series “Ironheart” in an undisclosed role.

“Ironheart” stars Dominique Thorne (“If Beale Street Could Talk,” “Judas and the Black Messiah”) as engineering genius Riri Williams, who, in the comics, develops a supersuit similar to Tony Stark’s Iron Man.

Chinaka Hodge (“Amazing Stories,” “Snowpiercer”) is serving as head writer, with Sam Bailey (“Dear White People”) and Angela Barnes (“Blindspotting”) dividing directing duties. Proximity — the production company co-founded by “Black Panther” filmmaker Ryan Coogler — is producing with Marvel Studios.

More to come.
