Marvel Studios has released a first look at its next superhero streaming series for Disney+, She-Hulk: Attorney at Law. The show centers around a lawyer named Jennifer Walters, who comic book fans should recognize as the cousin of Bruce Banner, sharing a similar disposition of being able to turn really big, strong, and green, particularly when angry. Marvel didn’t have much of a choice but to use significant amounts of CG to buff up series star Tatiana Maslany due to the seeming lack of female bodybuilding stars who can act in Hollywood, but the attempt has already prompted ire among critics who claim it looks very bad and doesn’t do the comic book version justice. She-Hulk: Attorney at Law will launch on August 17 exclusively for Disney+.

She-Hulk: Attorney at Law follows Jennifer Walters as she navigates the complicated life of a single, 30-something attorney who also happens to be a green 6-foot-7-inch superpowered hulk. The nine-episode series welcomes a host of MCU vets, including Mark Ruffalo as Smart Hulk, Tim Roth as Emil Blonsky/the Abomination, and Benedict Wong as Wong. The cast also includes Ginger Gonzaga, Josh Segarra, Jameela Jamil, Jon Bass and Renée Elise Goldsberry.

Join Discussion →Seems like a show made for mid 30s single women, so basically for CW.
Written by people who hate superheroes and probably man in general.
The CG being awful is the least of this project's problems.
Agreed. It's pretty "anti-man" which is ridiculous given that's who comic book shows tend to appeal to. It doesn't matter if the intended target audience may be an entirely different demographic.
Let me know when they do the Harvey Birdman crossover.
I wasn't impressed by it either. The CGI Hulk was the same, but She Hulk was awful.
Not impressed but I'm not hating it either, yet. I'm a fan of the character. John Byrne (amazing writer/artist) did some fun things with it in Fantastic Four during the early to mid-80s and then he was able to get her into her own title by the late 80s early 90s. It's been so long that I forget. This doesn't look like it's using much of any of that material, other than some looks, which is a shame because it was fun stuff.
Here's one of his covers.
and another
I became a fan of the character in the original Secret Wars back in the mid 80's myself. I'm hoping this is worth watching.
I almost left MCU completely after Endgame, but my brother told me to check out the shows first. I enjoyed Falcon and WS, WandaVision, and Hawkeye (Loki was meh for me). I dunno about She-Hulk though. I'm hoping it doesn't suck, but this trailer doesn't give a good first impression.
maybe in their wokeness they'll have her be gay and she turns in to some juiced up green tranny that goes around shaming men and grooming children.
Woooow.... your perception of what gay women do is astounding....
Yeah, that battle with the wrecking crew and Titania was pretty epic.
