Over the last few hours it has been officially announced that Tatiana Maslany, the star of Orphan Black, will take on the role of She-Hulk in the tv series of Marvel Cinematic Universe arriving on the platform Disney +. At the moment no official information has been released regarding the plot or release date, but we do know that in the Marvel Comics Universe, She-Hulk is Jennifer Walters, a successful lawyer who, after an assassination attempt in which she nearly lost her life, received a blood transfusion from her cousin Bruce Banner, better known as the "Jade Giant" Hulk. Her cousin's gamma-rayed blood has allowed her to develop extraordinary powers that, unlike the Hulk, she is able to perfectly control. Tatiana Maslany is known for her starring role in the drama series of BBC America Orphan Black, which aired for five seasons between 2013 and 2017. The actress was nominated for a Golden Globe and three Emmys for her role in the series, winning one for Best Actress in a Drama Series in 2016. Also , also recently starred in the HBO drama, Perry Mason.
Over the years the character of She-Hulk has drastically changed from a narrative and stylistic point of view, so it will be interesting to see which of his different versions will be inspired by for the realization of the character. Especially in this historical period, the use of a character like She-Hulk could be particularly interesting to include some extremely current concepts, such as the representation of minorities, which she always defended as a lawyer with strong moral ideals. We just have to wait for more information on the TV series, which will add to the already vast number of Marvel Cinematic Universe products coming to the Disney + streaming platform.
