Marvel’s Disney Plus series She-Hulk has finally found its director and it’s a great choice.

Marvel has wasted little time making use of the Disney Plus streaming service as it has commissioned series for The Falcon and The Winter SoldierLoki and the upcoming WandaVision – all based on characters within the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Another MCU series it greenlit that we haven’t been talking about enough is She-Hulk.

Centering on attorney Jennifer Walters, the She-Hulk comic books saw the character receive a blood transfusion from her cousin Bruce Banner. This ultimately gave her the same green abilities that The Incredible Hulk possessed – the difference being that she could maintain her intelligence whenever she “hulked up”.
