The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) presents a sci-fi comedy series around the life of Jennifer Walters, an attorney who also happens to be a green super-powered being – She-Hulk.
Canadian actress Tatiana Maslany, known for her role in Orphan Black, stars as super-powered attorney Jennifer Walters, also known as She-Hulk. Mark Ruffalo will return to his role as the Hulk / Bruce Banner in the upcoming series.
Fans may recognize actress Jameela Jamil for her iconic role as Tahani in the Emmy-winning series, The Good Place. In this MCU series, Jamil will play Titania, a villain with superhuman strength alongside Charlie Cox, who will return as Daredevil.
The LA She-Hulk premiere featured the main cast of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law. Mark Ruffalo, Tatiana Maslany, and Jameela Jamil were spotted and photographed together with the rest of the cast.

Critics and comic-lovers who attended the LA premiere at the Hollywood Boulevard posted raving reviews about the series.
#SheHulk has a surprising amount of ties to the rest of the MCU past and future and some legendary credits scenes on every episode.

It’s very easy to get hooked on this show if you like fun.
I’ll start out my thoughts on #SheHulk by saying Tatiana Maslany as Jen Walters is an absolute revelation. The first episode is a bit of a slow burner, but the show grows stronger with every instalment. The mid credit scenes are perhaps the most amusing ones in Marvel history. pic.twitter.com/qHz7NRGGcN

These positive reviews are a testament to the writing and directing of the show. She-Hulk‘s head writer and executive producer, Jessica Gao (Rick and Morty), reveals the importance of showing the mundane aspects of our heroine’s life. According to the Hollywood Reporter, the series touches on topics typical of daily life but uncommon in MCU films. She-Hulk not only focuses on legal work and breaking the fourth wall but also on dating and sex positivity.
Fans should be sure to watch the first episode of She-Hulk, which airs this Thursday on Disney+. Fans can check out the series trailer below.
