Jessica Gao, head writer of the latest MCU Disney Plus series She-Hulk: Lawyersaid she thinks Tatiana Maslany’s Jennifer Walters will continue to appear in Marvel films.
She-Hulk: Lawyer introduces a new Hulk to the MCU, introducing Tatiana Maslany as Jennifer Walters, the cousin of Mark Ruffalo’s Bruce Banner. The first episode sees Jennifer transformed into She-Hulk, although she makes it clear that she has no intention of becoming a superhero.
Despite her initial reluctance, it looks like Tatiana Maslany’s She-Hulk may have a career with the Avengers in her future. Jessica Gao revealed that she expected to see the character team up with other Marvel heroes on the big screen.
In a recent appearance on Deadline’s nation of heroes podcast, Jessica Gao said she would be “shocked” if She-Hulk didn’t make the jump to Marvel team-up movies.
Although She-Hulk debuted as the ultimate reluctant hero, Jessica Gao has made it clear that she sees a heroic future for the character in Marvel films alongside other superheroes. This could suggest that the character will change his mind about using his powers as a hero over the course of She-Hulk: Lawyer.
When asked if she thought She-Hulk might appear in the recently announced Avengers: Kang Dynasty and Avengers: Secret WarsGao said, “I would be shocked if they didn’t start putting her in movies, especially group team movies.”
As Marvel’s Disney Plus series are still a relatively new format for the studio, it hasn’t always been clear how some of the shows – such as Moon Knight and She-Hulk, which feature new heroes and aren’t meant as setups for MCU movies — will tie into Marvel’s theatrical releases. However, it looks like MCU fans should expect to see She-Hulk on the big screen soon.
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 happens to be a 6-foot-7 green superpowered hulk.
The series stars Tatiana Maslany, Mark Ruffalo, Tim Roth, Benedict Wong, Ginger Gonzaga, Josh Segarra, Jameela Jamil, Jon Bass and Renée Elise Goldsberry.
She-Hulk: Lawyer is now streaming on Disney Plus, with new episodes released every Thursday. Stay tuned for all the latest news on the Marvel series and be sure to subscribe to the Heroic Hollywood YouTube channel for more original video content.
