Tatiana Maslany Teases She-Hulk Rumours Amid Avengers Speculation
Tatiana Maslany playfully addressed speculation about her She-Hulk future, hinting she may not be finished with the role despite the show's abrupt end and swirling Avengers: Doomsday rumours.
When She-Hulk: Attorney at Law landed on Disney+ back in 2022, it found itself in the crosshairs of public opinion. While critics handed it a respectable 80% rating, viewers were far less forgiving. The return of familiar faces—Mark Ruffalo’s Bruce Banner, Tim Roth’s Abomination, and Benedict Wong’s Sorcerer Supreme—did little to soften the blow. The series was lambasted for its visual effects, and a vocal segment of the audience accused it of being the product of so-called 'man-hating feminists who hate superheroes.' Its offbeat humour, a departure from the usual Marvel bombast, left many scratching their heads. Unsurprisingly, talk of a second series fizzled out almost as quickly as it began, leaving the fate of its characters and storylines up in the air.
Recently, a rumour began circulating on X, suggesting that Maslany’s She-Hulk was meant to play a significant role in Avengers: Doomsday, but that she had declined the offer. This, in turn, fuelled speculation that the part might be recast. Maslany, however, took a rather tongue-in-cheek approach to the gossip during her appearance on the Comedy Bang! Bang! podcast. When asked about her involvement in Doomsday, she responded with a flourish:
"Nope. Disney has approached me to play She-Hulk again. Guys, I said no. Because I just did. This is the facts. They're out there. You can read the articles about it. I was really mad at them for kicking me out of the movie. I was just mad. I'm woke. It's woke feminist stuff… I was like, 'How dare you cast a woman in this role? That's disgusting. I’m embarrassed to even be here.’ They really wanted me to be in Doomsday, Avengers-style, or whatever. I turned them down. I'm confirming it here."
Unresolved Threads and Unanswered Questions
The abrupt end of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law left a trail of loose ends. Hulk’s offspring, the dynamic between She-Hulk and Daredevil (which failed to get a mention in Daredevil: Born Again), and the uncertain future of Abomination all remain in limbo. There’s little indication as to whether these plotlines will ever see the light of day again.
Beyond the lukewarm reception, Maslany herself has not shied away from voicing her opinions about Disney. In the months following the show’s cancellation, she made headlines for her outspoken stance during the suspension of Jimmy Kimmel in September 2025. Posting a photo of herself in a motion capture suit on Instagram, she urged subscribers of Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN to cancel their memberships. Despite this, there’s been no official word of any falling out between Maslany and the studio. Her playful remarks about 'turning down' a role in the next Avengers instalment suggest the door may not be entirely closed on her return.
