Bruce Banner/Incredible Hulk/Professor Hulk (Mark Ruffalo) is one of the most popular superhero figures globally, and virtually every Marvel fan has vied for the green buster to get his solo project (separate from Edward Norton’s movie).
Fourteen years after Hulk entered the MCU, She-Hulk is preparing to jump into the Marvel Universe with New York attorney Jennifer Walters (Tatiana Maslany) and Bruce Banner.
Nonetheless, Marvel’s She-Hulk fell into the shadows with Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022), Thor: Love and Thunder, and Ms. Marvel taking the majority of the public’s eye, albeit some of the news being controversial (mainly related to Ms. Marvel).
Now, She-Hulk finally receives an official release date after a UK Disney+ website leak:
#SheHulk will premiere on Disney+ on August 17, according to Disney UK!

The now-deleted Disney+ UK listing of She-Hulk read:
This new comedy series sees Bruce Banner help his cousin, Jennifer Walters, when she needs an emergency blood transfusion and guess what? She receives his powers too. Tatiana Maslany will play Jennifer, who is a lawyer specialising in superhuman-oriented legal cases. Mark Ruffalo is back as the Hulk alongside Tim Roth, who plays the Abomination.
With the unofficially titled Werewolf by Night from Michael Giacchino hitting Disney+ this Fall, every Marvel fan has more than enough content to fill their superhero needs until Secret Invasion, Iron Heart, The Marvels (2023), Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (2023), and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 shake up the Marvel collection.

The Marvel Universe is becoming much more than iconic characters/Earth’s Mightiest Heroes like Star-Lord/Peter Quill (Chris Pratt), Iron Man (Robert Downey, Jr.), Captain America (Chris Evans), Thor (Chris Hemsworth), Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch), the Winter Soldier (Sebastian Stan), Hawkeye/Clint Barton (Jeremy Renner), Black Widow/Natasha Romanoff (Scarlett Johansson), and Captain Marvel/Carol Danvers (Brie Larson).
Tom Holland’s Avenger, Spider-Man, is leading the way for Marvel Cinematic Universe newcomers Kate Bishop, Ms. Marvel/Kamala Khan (Iman Vellani), Moon Knight (Oscar Isaac), Agatha Harkness (Kathryn Hahn), She-Hulk (Tatiana Maslany), Eternals’ Thena (Angelina Jolie), and more — especially with his next Spider-Man trilogy that’s currently in the works.
