It looks like Marvel and Disney+'s upcoming She-Hulk series will stick pretty close to the source material when it comes to Jennifer Walters' origin.

A character breakdown for the show's lead has been revealed by The Illuminderi, and it confirms that Walters will require a blood transfusion from her cousin Bruce Banner after being shot, which ultimately transforms her into "a similar green monster." The logline specifically mentions that she will eventually go on to join The Avengers.

Marvel is currently searching for an actress of open ethnicity in the 26 to 34-year old age range with strong comedic chops.

Mark Ruffalo has played coy in the past when asked if he was set to return as Banner for the show, but if the character does appear on screen, we assume the Avengers: Endgame actor will play the role.

She-Hulk is scheduled top begin shooting later this year, with Rick and Morty scribe Jessica Gao leading the writing team.

While I've always enjoyed She Hulk, her "origin" is pretty dull and not very important imo. I do enjoy her lighter nature and comedic timing though. I've also always had a thing for tall green chicks.

@Feralwookiee -

Compared to many other prominent characters' origins, I do agree it is very lackluster.

But this could be the perfect segway for it to become common, or at least military knowledge, of what the Hulk's blood could do to an ordinary person within the MCU.

Enough people being aware that Banner provided the blood for the transfusion & it gets back to General Ross... then his mind starts tickin' with a new way to possibly put down the Hulk... his own... himself... Enter Red Hulk!

Boom.
Blunt-rant over lol.

No matter the origin, this is gonna be one expensive show

@MalseMarcel - Naw. All you need is a muscle-bound 6'7 woman and a can of green paint. 😉

@Feralwookiee - I guess economically thinking, it would cost less to shrink a super tall/big woman for an episode or 2 + flashbacks than it would be to enlarge a small woman for the majority of the show

Marvel might need a couple extra rabbits to pull out of the hat for this one

@Feralwookiee - How many 6" 7" muscle bound actresses do you know...that can actually ACT!

@MalseMarcel - Not necessarily... won't have to be CGI like Hulk... Just requires camera trickery like used on Lord of the Rings or Harry Potter when showing a normal person as a giant... kind of like using Peter Dinklage for Eitri. A lot can be done 'practical'

Interesting if true. They seem to be going all the way with it as far as origins go. Wonder if they somehow manage to bring back TBN and do Leader, or if we get Doc Samson (preferably recast)

As far as a costume, I'm curious if they go with a sleeveless version of Hulk's Endgame look with a greater emphasis on the white stripe down the middle



They'd definitely make it sleeveless and maybe do something with shorts instead of the full swimsuit look, similar to some of Thing's outfits
