Marvel's SHE-HULK Series Will Reportedly Include a Shapeshifter Character
It looks like Marvel’s upcoming She-Hulk Disney+ series is going to include a shapeshifter character. With WandaVision now over and done, fans are looking to the future shows that are coming and trying to get information on what they will entail
Well, today’s shapeshifter news comes from The Illuminerdi from a casting call that they got their hands on describing the character.
The character is listed with the codename A’Dood. “She is a 20-30 year old female described as a mysterious shapeshifter that embraces Earth’s pop culture. Enjoying the way she lives life, she uses her power in any way that she can to make her happy, including to get herself power, money, and attention. She will reportedly be in two of the ten episodes of She-Hulk.”
This sounds like it will be a Skrull character as they are going to play a bigger part in the MCU moving forward. The report goes on to speculate that the character might end up being the Marvel character Jazinda.
Jazinda is described as “an agent of the Skrull Empire who was sent to recover an artifact stolen by the rival Tree in the comics. The artifact was the Sy-Torak Gem, but she ended up bonding with it, giving herself the ability to bring back life. She fled to Earth after this incident and eventually became friends with She-Hulk, partnering with her on multiple adventures. It seems possible that Marvel Studios could adapt elements of this comic storyline into the new Disney+ show.”
We have no idea if this is actually the character that will appear in the show, but we’ll eventually find out. Tatiana Maslany (Orphan Black) is set to star in the series as Jennifer Walters, the cousin of Bruce Banner who inherits his Hulk powers after she receives a blood transfusion from him. Unlike Banner, however, when she hulks out, Jennifer is able to retain most of her personality, intelligence, and emotional control.
The series also stars Ginger Gonzaga (Kidding) Walters’ best friend in the series, and she is joined by Hulk actor Mark Ruffalo, who will be back as Banner, and Tim Roth will be reprising his role as Abomination.
Kat Coiro (Dead To Me, Shameless, Always Sunny in Philadelphia) is set to helm the pilot along with several other episodes. She will also serve as an executive producer. Rick and Morty writer Jessica Gao leads the writer’s room for the series.
