She-Hulk Season 2 Possibility Addressed By Director

The possibility of a She-Hulk season 2 is addressed by director and executive producer Kat Coiro. Announced in 2019, the upcoming Disney+ television series will be the final MCU show within Marvel Studios' Phase Four. She-Hulk: Attorney at Law centers on Tatiana Maslany as Jennifer Walters, a lawyer tasked with defending super-humans. Following a car accident, Walters is accidentally infected with Bruce Banner's (Mark Ruffalo) blood, causing her to transform into the She-Hulk, a 6'7" tall green version of herself that is imbued with the Hulk's powers of super-strength and rapid healing.

Since the MCU expanded to include the slate of Disney+ shows, only Loki and What If...? were officially green lit for a second season. In other cases, Marvel's opted to use movies as a followup to a show. For example, Scarlet Witch appeared in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness after WandaVision, and Sam Wilson's story from The Falcon and the Winter Soldier continues in Captain America: New World Order. Since Marvel's plans for characters varies on a case-by-case basis, audiences always wonder if a new series will extend past one season. She-Hulk season 2 hasn't been confirmed yet, but Coiro is open to the prospect.

In a recent interview with EW, Coiro discussed the possibility that She-Hulk: Attorney At Law will return for a season 2. When asked if there was a second season in the works, the director admitted that only Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige can truthfully say for sure. However, Coiro revealed that the series leaves the possibility for She-Hulk to reappear in the MCU and interact with other Marvel superheroes. Read what the director said below.

"Only Kevin Feige can answer that question. There is definitely the possibility of having a second season. There's also the possibility of the character joining the other characters in the movies. I have no idea. Watching Bruce and Jen, She-Hulk and He-Hulk interact, you're definitely going to want to see more of their dynamic together. It's a really playful big-brother-little-sister dynamic that has a lot of depth to it, and people are definitely going to want to see more of that in the future."

Whether or not She-Hulk season 2 happens depends on a variety of factors, which are difficult to gauge right now since Marvel is keeping a good portion of their future plans under wraps. Even after the wave of announcements during their San Diego Comic-Con 2022 panel, there are still a number of mystery projects set to release during Phase 6 before the Multiverse Saga concludes with Avengers: Secret Wars. It's entirely possible Marvel will announce She-Hulk season 2 at a later date, sliding it into one of the many dates they have set aside. She-Hulk: Attorney at Law essentially serves as Jen Walters' origin story, and Marvel typically doesn't introduce major new characters without intending to bring them back in some capacity. She-Hulk season 2 could be used to continue Jen's narrative before she makes the leap to the movies.

Of course, She-Hulk season 2 isn't a necessity for Jen's MCU future. With Matt Murdock set to have a role in She-Hulk, Jen could return the favor by being a supporting character in Daredevil: Born Again. She could also appear in any one of the many Marvel movies or TV shows coming through the pipeline, teaming up with other characters to continue her arc. If that's the direction Marvel goes, it could impact the furthered development of the Bruce/Jen dynamic Coiro is such a fan of. The cousins' relationship is a key part of She-Hulk marketing so far, playing up their friendly banter as Bruce trains Jen in the ways of being a Hulk. If the pair is a hit with audiences, She-Hulk season 2 might be the best way to give viewers more of them together without shortchanging their dynamic.
