She-Hulk Season 2 Not Happening Would Waste So Much MCU Potential

There's currently no sign of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law season 2, but not creating another season of the show would be a huge waste of MCU potential. The most recent MCU Disney+ series featured Orphan Black star Tatiana Maslany as lawyer Jennifer Walters, Bruce Banner's cousin who finds herself becoming a hulk after being exposed to his blood in a car accident. She-Hulk season 1 came to an end on October 13, 2022, with an explosive finale that changed what it means to be an MCU property thanks to She-Hulk's fourth-wall-jumping adventure into Marvel Studios HQ.

Despite some questionable visual effects, She-Hulk: Attorney at Law received a positive reception thanks to Maslany's witty performance, the show's comedy, and its self-awareness within the world of the MCU. However, there are currently no plans for a second season, even though there is so much untapped potential in Walters' story. Not only is She-Hulk a lot of light-hearted fun for audiences (a departure from previous recent Marvel Studios projects), the legal comedy format for the series means that it lends itself perfectly to a continuation in She-Hulk season 2. While MCU projects such as WandaVision and The Falcon and the Winter Soldier lead swiftly into feature films, She-Hulk: Attorney at Law works best as a long-form serial, so a season 2 shouldn't be dismissed out of hand.

Will She-Hulk Season 2 Happen? What We Know

In an interview with Comicbook.com, She-Hulk creator Jessica Gao didn't mention whether a season 2 was in production or even if talks were happening, instead comparing the process of making the show to giving birth, urging people to "give [her] a second... that's how [she] feel[s] right now." This seems to suggest that the creation of She-Hulk was incredibly taxing for the production crew, especially since there has been some backlash about the content of the show, and the quality of some of the CGI.

When questioned about the status of She-Hulk season 2 by Extra, She-Hulk star Maslany stressed that she has no knowledge of plans for a continuation of the series. Instead, she took a note from the dialogue between Walters and the machine-behind-the-curtain, KEVIN, who appeared in episode 9, "Whose Show Is This?" She states, "KEVIN in the scene seems to be very dismissive of the idea, so if we're basing this off of the real Kevin, it doesn't seem likely." Even so, since there's not yet been any official answer, the opportunity is still there for the series to continue.

Where Else She-Hulk Can Appear In The MCU

Even if a She-Hulk season 2 isn't produced, there is plenty of opportunity for She-Hulk appearing in many MCU projects. It's likely that the character will make her next appearance on the big screen, as implied by KEVIN during the She-Hulk finale. However, there has also been speculation that Jennifer Walters will appear next in Daredevil: Born Again since Charlie Cox's Matt Murdock, a.k.a Daredevil, appeared during the final two episodes of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law and seemed to begin a romantic relationship with the titular hero.

It's possible that She-Hulk could appear in the likes of Captain America: New World Order and Thunderbolts, since both are rumored to be following Hulk storylines, with the Leader returning in New World Order and a possible Red Hulk played by Harrison Ford in Thunderbolts. If the She-Hulk: Attorney at Law lead doesn't appear in any of these projects, it's almost a certainty that Avengers: The Kang Dynasty and Avengers: Secret Wars will see She-Hulk's return, since these are being built up to be the most hero-packed MCU films since Avengers: Endgame.
