She’s joined an increasingly impressive cast that also boasts Tatiana Maslany in the lead role of Jennifer Walters, aka She-Hulk, Mark Ruffalo as Bruce Banner, Tim Roth as Emil Blonsky, and Ginger Gonzaga as Walters’ closest friend. Marvel has yet to comment on the casting, but it’s worth noting that prior leaks revealing Walters in the lead role turned out to be true.
