To finally make up for the lack of Hulk content in the MCU, Jessica Gao was tasked with making She-Hulk: Lawyer. The series stars Tatiana Maslany as Jennifer Walters/She-Hulk and sees the return of Mark Ruffalo as Hulk and Charlie Cox as Daredevil.

The action-comedy sees defense attorney Jennifer Walters portray superhumans in court. Given his closeness to the law, fans expected to see plenty of Marvel legal figures, including Matt Murdock and Jessica Jones.
The return of Daredevil and in the MCU
Debuting in 2015 on Netflix, daredevil remained the most successful production in the Defenders saga but was ultimately canceled in 2018. Disappointed by the cancellation, fans campaigned to see the character return, and their wish was granted with his cameo in Spider-Man: No Coming Home.

Defenders content was later moved to Disney+ and the character is currently set to make her MCU debut with an 18-episode series titled Daredevil: Born Again. Although he is already back, he should also make an appearance in Echo and She-Hulk: Lawyer.
Why is Daredevil yellow?
After Daredevil’s appearance in She-Hulk was revealed, fans were very disappointed with the change, feeling that the character looked goofy and weird. Defending the decision, showrunner Jessica Gao said in an interview with Collider:
“He has so much respect and love for this character. Clearly the character meant so much to him, but he also came in very acting. He was totally up for more funny banter and having this fun dynamic with Jen and She-Hulk This really looks like the character from the comics.
