After Ms. Marvel, the next series in the Marvel Cinematic Universe would be She-Hulk: Attorney at Law and the actress playing Jennifer Walters, Tatiana Maslany, revealed that she was nervous, at first, about joining one of the biggest franchises in existence.
Tatiana Maslany is about to make her MCU debut in a month in She-Hulk: Attorney at Law as Jennifer Walters, Bruce Banner's cousin, who works as a lawyer while dealing with her transformation as She-Hulk in a legal comedy poised to come out in August this year.
She-Hulk: Attorney at Law actress Tatiana Maslany revealed in an interview with SFX Magazine that she was nervous, at first, about joining the MCU, "I've always sort of been nervous to step into a world like this because I prize character over everything, and I just didn't know how much that would exist in bigger projects."
Maslany further explained what convinced her to take on the role, "When I read the pilot, this was such an unexpected take on a superhero story. It's so human. There's really great explorations of the mundanity of life, in really great ways."

Maslany teased how the series would be a mixture of comedy and the unexpected, "It's speaking to something that I'm really interested in, which is when you suddenly start getting seen as something; then you're seen as one thing, and you become commodified as that thing. What this show does, but in a funny and unexpected way, is deal with this idea."
Maslany reveals that the story will also deal with how Walters will handle the change in her life, "How do you own the wholeness of what your body is when something has happened to you; or you are suddenly seen so differently; or there's an expectation on you to behave a certain way because of how you look? There's all these undertones that I find really compelling in the subtext of this sort of story."
She-Hulk is about the cousin of Bruce Banner, Jennifer Walters, a lawyer who has powers similar to that of Bruce after Bruce gave her an emergency blood transfusion granting her powers and better, keeping her person and intelligence when she is in She-Hulk just like that of Professor Hulk in Avengers: Endgame.
Tatiana Manslany will be taking on the role of Jennifer Walters/ She-Hulk and she would be joined by Mark Ruffalo as Bruce Banner/ Hulk, Tim Roth as Emil Blonsky/ Abomination, Ginger Gonzaga as Walters’ best friend, Renée Elise Goldsberry as Amelia, Jameela Jamil as Titania, Anais Almonte and Josh Segarra.
