"She-Hulk Attorney at Law" Will Be The Last Series Of MCU Phase Four. How It Will Connect With MCU?
Marvel Studios president, Keven Feige, was on hand at Comic-Con with a host of talent to announce the score of films that are set to come our way in the next few years. Alongside Keven Geige revealed that "She Hulk" will be the last movie of MCU phase 4.
Marvel's first three phases, now named "Infinity Saga," followed the rise and fall of Thanos (Josh Brolin), a villain who used the power of the Infinity Stones to kill half the life in the universe. While MCU fans were expecting Phase 4 to introduce a new big baddie right away, Marvel Studios took their time to present disconnected stories focused on a new cast of characters. So far, we have already seen the theatrical release of Loke Season 1, What If Season 1, Wandavision, Falcon and the Winter Soldier. The next MCU series will be She Hulk , the last series of Phase 4.
It was revealed that Marvel Studios was working on a Hulk/She-Hulk team-up series for Disney+ and according to the original report, Mark Ruffalo would reprise his role of Bruce Banner/Hulk, as his character would pass the baton to She-Hulk during the series.
In 1989, it was rumored that She-Hulk would appear and co-star in the TV film The Trial of the Incredible Hulk (1989), but it did not happen. Around that time, a TV series about the character was planned for ABC starring Mitzi Kapture and 6'1" volleyball champ Gabrielle Reece as She-Hulk. It would have been a direct sequel to the TV series, The Incredible Hulk (1977). But the project was officially declared dead in 1991 because they couldn't find the right actress to play her alter-ego Jennifer Walters. Eventually, a live-action film about She-Hulk was being developed in the early 1990s. Larry Cohen was set to write and direct the film, while Brigitte Nielsen ended up being cast as Jennifer Walters/She-Hulk. Although Nielsen posed for photos dressed as the character, the film was scrapped and never happened.
Marvel's first full solo Hulk project. The Incredible Hulk (2008) was partly developed and distributed by Universal Studios. Up to this day, Marvel Studios still hasn't received the distribution rights to a Hulk film from Universal. This explains why a Hulk film featuring Mark Ruffalo could not be made despite Ruffalo taking the role in The Avengers (2012).
On July 6, 2021, the site The Direct reported that there will be "many instances" of Jennifer Walters/She-Hulk (Tatiana Maslany) breaking the fourth wall or talking directly to the audience. The report also claimed that Jennifer will even be aware of and acknowledge that she is a character within the MCU. Both of these aspects of the character were a major part of the 1985 graphic novel and continuing comic series entitled, "The Sensational She-Hulk" by writer/artist John Byrne.
She-Hulk is intended to be the eighth television series in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) produced by Marvel Studios, sharing continuity with the films of the franchise. It follows Jennifer Walters, cousin of Hulk (Mark Ruffalo), a lawyer specializing in cases involving superhumans, who also becomes the green superhero She-Hulk. Jennifer Walters navigates the complicated life of a single, 30-something attorney who also happens to be a green 6-foot-7-inch superpowered Hulk.
"She-Hulk: Attorney at Law" is scheduled to premiere on August 18, 2022, and will consist of nine episodes, concluding on October 13. It will be the last series of Phase Four of the MCU.
