The legal drama She-Hulk: Attorney at Law may not be over yet, according to some sources. The show, which starred Tatiana Maslany as Jennifer Walters, a lawyer who gains superpowers after a blood transfusion from her cousin Bruce Banner (Mark Ruffalo), also featured a stellar cast of Jameela Jamil, Ginger Gonzaga, Josh Segarra, and Tim Roth. The show mixed humor, action, and courtroom intrigue in nine episodes, directed by Kat Coiro, Anu Valia, and Jessica Gao.
She-Hulk received mixed reviews from critics and fans alike, but it seems that the MCU has not given up on the green-skinned heroine. There are rumors that She-Hulk may appear in future projects, either as a guest star or in a second season of her own show. Nothing has been confirmed yet, but we are hopeful that we will see more of She-Hulk soon!
Is there gonna be a She-Hulk Season 2? (Updated)
Fans of Marvel’s She-Hulk might be wondering if the show will return for a second season, especially after the recent tweet from insider MyTimeToShineHello that hinted at some good news. However, the ongoing strikes by the WGA and SAG-AFTRA have put a pause on any official confirmation.
The first season of She-Hulk, which followed the adventures of lawyer Jennifer Walters who gained superpowers after a blood transfusion from her cousin Bruce Banner, received mixed reviews from critics and audiences. While critics praised the show’s humor and action, giving it a 77% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, audiences were less impressed, scoring it at 32%.
Some of the reasons for the audience’s dissatisfaction might have been the high expectations set by previous MCU shows on Disney+, such as WandaVision, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, and What If?, which were widely acclaimed. Another factor might have been the disappointment of Secret Invasion, which suggested that Marvel might be struggling with some of its TV projects (and possibly movies as well but that’s another topic).
Despite the lukewarm reception, She-Hulk still has a lot of potential for improvement in a second season. There are many questions that fans would like to see answered, such as: What kind of cases will Jennifer Walters take on next? Will she face any intergalactic legal issues? How will her relationship with Bruce Banner evolve? Will there be more connections to the MCU? And with the multiverse in play, will we see any alternate versions of She-Hulk?
Until the strikes are resolved, we can only speculate. But given the popularity of the character and the demand for more content, it’s very likely that Disney and Marvel Studios will announce a second season of She-Hulk. Hopefully.
She-Hulk might have had a rocky start, but it still has a chance to win over fans and critics in a second season. The verdict is not final yet, and in the Marvel Universe, anything can happen.
She-Hulk Season 2: Is Jen Walter going into revision?
Admittedly, only a very manageable number of Marvel series have managed to be extended for a second season. Fans should also exercise appropriate caution with “She-Hulk,” as this format was originally conceived for only one season. However, the amusing lawyer series could well make it into the illustrious circle and get a second season.
A few direct hints in the final episode: After She-Hulk has broken the fourth wall, she trips towards Marvel Studios, where initial concepts and plans for She-Hulk season 2 are already being discussed. Also in the dialogue with K.E.V.I.N., Jen clarifies that she already has some great ideas for a second season. It’s hard to tease a sequel more clearly, or are the series creators making a bad joke here? Hopefully not.
Ultimately, however, the decision will also depend on the streaming hits. We are cautiously optimistic that “She-Hulk” will get a second season if they are convincing. If you still need some clarification after the finale, you should consult the following article:
She-Hulk Season 2 Plot: When and how will it continue?
If the lawyer-comedy gets the green light on time, we’ll be able to stream the new episodes on Disney+ in 2025 or earlier. But it’s also possible that we’ll see Jennifer Walters again in another MCU production before then.
Should her own series be continued, Jen will probably continue to work as a lawyer and solve tricky cases – both in and out of the courtroom. We then also had a reunion with (former) clients like Abomination (Tim Roth), cousin Bruce (Mark Ruffalo), and assistant and girlfriend Nikki Ginger Gonzaga we also consider likely.
Why was She-Hulk fired?
One of the major plot points of the first season of She-Hulk was Jennifer’s dismissal from her prestigious law firm, Goodman, Lieber, Kurtzberg & Holliway (GLK&H), after she accidentally revealed her green alter ego during a court case. The firm’s senior partner Holden Holliway (played by John Goodman) fired Jennifer on the spot, citing her breach of confidentiality and professional ethics. Jennifer was devastated by the loss of her job and reputation and felt betrayed by Holliway, who had been her mentor and friend for years. She also faced a lawsuit from GLK&H for damages and defamation.
However, Jennifer did not give up on her career as a lawyer. She decided to open her own practice in a rundown office building, specializing in representing clients with superpowers or unusual circumstances. She also hired two assistants: Angie Huang (played by Awkwafina), a quirky hacker and inventor who became Jennifer’s best friend, and Patsy Walker (played by Rachael Taylor), a former child star and radio host who had a secret identity as the superhero Hellcat. Together, they formed a team of misfits who fought for justice and helped each other cope with their issues.
