It’s been a big summer for Marvel, with Ms. Marvel premiering in June and I Am Groot kicking off August. That’s not the end of the studio’s releases either, as She-Hulk: Attorney at Law also debuts this month. The much-anticipated Disney+ series will tell the story of Jennifer Walters (Tatiana Maslany), Bruce Banner’s (Mark Ruffalo) cousin who’s navigating a law career alongside new Hulk-like powers. So, what’s the release date for She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, and what do we know about the show so far?
‘She-Hulk: Attorney at Law’ release date and time on Disney+
She-Hulk: Attorney at Law arrives on Disney+ soon, boasting a release date of Thursday, Aug. 18. The series is deviating from Marvel’s usual Wednesday release schedule. According to Marvel.com, new episodes of She-Hulk will stream every Thursday for the entirety of season 1.
The new Disney+ series will span nine episodes in total, so it should take Marvel fans well into October. And although the weekly release date is changing, the premiere time will likely remain the same. New installments tend to hit the platform around 12:01 a.m. PST, or 3:01 a.m. EST. That’s when fans can look for She-Hulk on Disney+ — just on Thursdays rather than Wednesdays.
As for the plot of the Marvel show, here’s the official Disney+ synopsis for Jennifer Walters’ story:
“In Marvel Studios’ She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, Jennifer Walters (Tatiana Maslany) — an attorney specializing in superhuman-oriented legal cases — must navigate the complicated life of a single, 30-something who also happens to be a green 6-foot-7-inch superpowered hulk.”
From the sound of it, She-Hulk: Attorney at Law will bring fans a comical take on a beloved character. And the trailer promises plenty of antics between the titular She-Hulk and the Hulk we already know and love.
The ‘She-Hulk: Attorney at Law’ trailer
Now that we know the release date and time for She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, let’s dig into Marvel’s trailer for the upcoming series. It captures the premise described in the synopsis well, opening with Bruce Banner attempting to wake his cousin with an air horn. It doesn’t actually send her into a Hulk rage, but he gets a kick out of it nonetheless.
After several shots of the pair training and bickering, the trailer segues into the actual plot of the Disney+ series: Jennifer’s superhuman caseload. As a voiceover puts it, “More and more eccentric superhumans are coming out of the woodwork.” And a new division will deal with such cases, prompting Jennifer to get involved.
She’ll also navigate a new superhero career on top of her legal one, and that means working with other familiar faces from the Marvel Cinematic Universe. So, who exactly makes up the cast of She-Hulk? Here’s everyone confirmed so far.
