The first She-Hulk trailer is here and it reveals the August 17 release date for the Disney Plus series.
The trailer begins with some advice from seasoned superhero Bruce Banner (Mark Ruffalo), who we get to see as the Hulk, specifically his Professor Hulk persona introduced in Avengers: Endgame, for the first time since Shang-Chi and the Legend. of the Ten Rings. More importantly, we finally get our first look at Tatiana Maslany as the titular attorney, Jennifer Walters.
Walters is a reluctant superhero who just wants to be a normal, non-green lawyer, go on dates and enjoy time with her friends, but is plagued by a familiar and terrifying problem: she transforms into She-Hulk when she’s angry or scared. Naturally, as the only other known human being with experience in this sort of thing, her cousin Bruce Banner arrives at some point to show her the ropes.
In the comics, She-Hulk is a member of the current Avengers roster of superheroes, but she makes it pretty clear in the trailer above that she’s not interested in joining the ranks of the Hulk, Captain America, and Thor. Still, there wouldn’t be a TV series if she just walked out of that life and kept trying to suppress her anger to avoid awkward dinners. It’s unclear exactly what happens to make her change her mind, but it’s clear that at some point in the series she will use her powers against some bad guys.
Catch She-Hulk: Attorney at Law when it begins streaming on Disney Plus on August 17.
