She-Hulk: Lawyer Creator Jessica Gao has revealed she has no creative control over Daredevil’s look in the new Disney Plus series.
In 2015, Daredevil made his first Marvel Cinematic Universe appearance in the Netflix series of the same name. The first and third seasons are widely considered to be some of Marvel’s best TV shows. However, there was a slightly weak connection to the character; her outfit.
At the end of the first season, the Netflix show revealed Daredevil’s full outfit and it wasn’t very good. Future seasons improved the design slightly, it remained something of an anomaly in the MCU which was normally very good at these things. Earlier this year, it was officially revealed that Daredevil would be joining She-Hulk: Lawyer in a new suit. The costume itself was visibly yellow, making it a pretty drastic change from the outfit he wore in the Netflix series.
Speaking to Life Hacker, Jessica Gao revealed that she had no control over the look of the character in the new She-Hulk series:
“Usually how they do it, they kind of let us come up with what we want to do rather than giving us directions. When they first told us that [Daredevil] was a possibility, we just couldn’t believe it. And while we were working out a story and what we wanted it to do, the fact that they kept saying no shocked us. The only thing I had no control over was the costume. They knew exactly what they wanted the suit to look like.
Here is the synopsis of She-Hulk: Lawyer:
“She-Hulk: Attorney at Law follows Jennifer Walters as she navigates the complicated life of a single 30-something lawyer who also appears to be a 6-foot-7 green superpowered hulk.”
Marvel Studios’ She-Hulk: Lawyer stars Tatiana Maslany, Mark Ruffalo, Tim Roth, Benedict Wong, Ginger Gonzaga, Josh Segarra, Jameela Jamil, Jon Bass and Renée Elise Goldsberry.
She-Hulk: Lawyer premieres on Disney Plus on August 18. Stay tuned for all the latest news on the new Disney Plus series and be sure to subscribe to Heroic Hollywood’s YouTube channel for more original video content.
