Tatiana Malsany cast as She Hulk for upcoming Disney + Show - What could be in store for the show

So Big News came out last night that former Orphan Black actress Tatiana Malsany has been cast as Jennifer Walters AKA She Hulk for an upcoming Disney+ Series. There have been talks about this series happening for a while now but with the lead cast it is now confirmed and here are some of my thoughts on what could happen on the show. 

Will be part superhero show part courtroom drama

So in the comics and this show it has been confirmed that Walters will be a lawyer for powered individuals and that will play a big part in this show. We have seen this attempted in Netflix's Daredevil but over time the show kind of moved away from the courtroom and focused on the superhero stuff. I hope this show finds the right balance between the two as I think the courtroom can produce fascinating storytelling and this show could feel very unique. 

Mark Ruffalo will make an appearance as Smart Hulk

One of the first actors to react to this news was Hulk actor Mark Ruffalo, in the comics Walters is the cousin of Bruce Banner and gains her powers due to having a blood transfusion from him. These Disney+ shows have large budgets and I feel like to drag in the casual fans having Ruffalo here just makes sense. Plus in terms of storytelling it could add an interesting layer to the show, especially after the events of Avengers: Endgame. 

William Hurt will also appear as General Ross and possibly transform into The Red Hulk

Over the last few years William Hurt as General Ross has made plenty of appearances in the MCU but it has to be remembered he started off as a character in The Incredible Hulk and is heavily linked to that character. I think he will be a main antagonist of this show and this might finally be the time we see him transform into The Red Hulk and go against the Hulk cousins in a huge battle. Though after his appearance in Black Widow I believe that he will be recruiting The Thunderbolts, who are basically the Suicide Squad for Marvel and that could continue here. 

Could see She Hulk join the film universe

After Avengers Endgame it seems we are going to be set for a very different Avengers in the future. With his injuries it is unlikely Hulk could return in a full time role so it would be cool to see She Hulk take up the role in the team, I am not exactly sure on how the shows and films will coexist but with Scarlett Witch set to be in her own show and Doctor Strange 2 it seems like they are fine with doing this. 

Overall

Overall, I honestly can't say much about the casting as I am not familiar with the actress, but she seems to have good credits to her name and I am just excited to see this character be given a chance in the spotlight.
