Mark Ruffalo welcomed Tatiana Maslany to the Hulk family!
This past Thursday, Marvel Studios found its She-Hulk in Tatiana Maslany, an Emmy-winning actress best known for her work in the sci-fi series Orphan Black. In the comics, She-Hulk is the cousin of Bruce Banner, a.k.a. The Hulk, the character played by Mark Ruffalo in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
On Friday, Mark Ruffalo took to his personal Twitter page to comment on Tatiana Maslany’s She-Hulk casting. Ruffalo shared the article that broke the casting news, with a caption that reads, “Welcome to the family, cuz! @tatianamaslany #SheHulk.” You can check out his Twitter post below.
Earlier this week, Marry Me helmer Kat Coiro signed on to direct the She-Hulk pilot and additional episodes of the Disney Plus series. In addition to directing, Coiro is also executive producing the series. Rick and Morty scribe Jessica Gao is developing She-Hulk, serving as lead writer on the project.
In the comics, She-Hulk is the alter-ego of Jennifer Walters, a private attorney and the cousin of Bruce Banner. After being shot, Jennifer Walters receives a blood transfusion from Bruce that transforms her into the gamma-powered She-Hulk. However, unlike most incarnations of Bruce Banner’s Hulk, Jennifer Walters retains her sharp wit and emotional control in her She-Hulk form, which later becomes permanent.
Marvel Studios’ upcoming slate of films includes Black Widow, The Eternals, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, and Thor: Love and Thunder. In addition to the aforementioned feature films, Marvel Studios is developing several shows for Disney Plus, including The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, WandaVision, Loki, What If…?, Hawkeye, Ms. Marvel, Moon Knight, and She-Hulk.
She-Hulk is currently slated for a 2022 release on Disney Plus. Stay tuned for the latest news regarding the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and make sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel for more content!
