‘She-Hulk: Attorney at Law’

Premiere: August 18, 2022

Showrunner Jessica Gao is currently prepping what appears to be a light-hearted take on Jennifer Walters, aka She-Hulk, for Disney +.

Marvel was initially looking for an actress in her 20s-mid 30s with comedic chops to portray Walters. On September 15, 2020, Kat Coiro (It’s Always Sunny In PhiladelphiaShameless) was confirmed to be directing multiple episodes of the show, and just two days later it became official that Tatiana Maslany (Orphan Black; Perry Manson) had landed the series’ title role, ahead of an early 2021 start of production.

During the Disney Investor Day presentation on December 10, 2020, it was confirmed that Tim Roth would be reprising his Abomination role from The Incredible Hulk and that Mark Ruffalo would also be returning as the Hulk himself. Ginger Gonzaga joined the cast in January 2021, in the role of Walter’s as of then-unnamed best friend. In April it was Renée Elise Goldsberry that joined the show playing a lawyer named Amelia. Jameela Jamil was announced to be playing the villainous Titania in early June 2021, with the series also adding Josh Segarra and Director of Photography Florian Ballhaus to its crew the following month. Griffin Matthews (The Flight Attendant) will also be joining the show in an undisclosed recurring role.

In April 2022 some rumors surfaced that hinted at a late 2022 / early 2023 streaming debut for the series, a slight delay on what was initially expected. These rumors were later proved to be unsubstantiated with the announcement that the series would premiere on August 17 following the release of its first official trailer on May 17, 2022. Besides the release date, the show got a new title with the Attorney at Law subtitle being added and confirmation that it would consist of nine episodes instead of the initially announced ten.

Amie Doherty was confirmed as the composer of the show in July 2022.

According to an official Disney release, She-Hulk will debut with a single episode on August 17th, meaning it will likely have a nine-week run that will conclude on October 12th. This was soon changed with the series being revealed to be premiering on August 18 instead, with a new episode every Thursday. The decision will prevent a bigger overlap with the release of Rogue One spin-off Andor as well as prevent an Obi-Wan Kenobi / Ms. Marvel situation where both series’ episodes were being released on the same weekday.
