The long-awaited first trailer for Marvel’s upcoming Disney+ series, She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, has finally landed. And Marvel fans are all talking about the same thing: the CGI. Used to bring the title character to life (because, of course, it would be difficult to do it any other way) fans have flocked to social media to discuss the quality of the CGI used to transform Orphan Black star Tatiana Maslany into a mean, green, Hulk.
Many fans feel that, considering the budgets given to such Marvel projects, and how integral She-Hulk is to the show (it is called She-Hulk: Attorney at Law after all) that the quality should be much higher.

Several fans have even been left reminiscing about some of the worst CGI moments in cinematic history. Which, while a bit harsh, is no doubt far from the effect that Marvel Studios were hoping for.
The footage has even left some fans wondering why CGI was used in the first place, suggesting that She-Hulk may have been better realized using practical effects.
Thankfully, it’s not all bad, with many arguing that the CGI on many shots in the trailer is likely unfinished. She-Hulk: Attorney at Law is still three months from release, giving Marvel plenty of time to add some finishing touches and hopefully make She-Hulk look a little more realistic and little less rubbery.
Others are suggesting that we should simply apply some patience, and look to other Marvel movies and shows for assurance. Though that assurance will only come depending on which Marvel project you use for reference…
The general consensus following the release of the first footage from She-Hulk: Attorney at Law though certainly seems to be that more work needs to be done before the Marvel hero makes her debut.
She-Hulk: Attorney at Law Will be a Straight-Up Comedy
Marvel Studios
Much like some of the most beloved comic book runs led by She-Hulk, She-Hulk: Attorney at Law will lean more heavily into the comedic aspects of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Even more so than ever before. The legal-comedy series sees Bruce Banner step in to help put his cousin, Jennifer Walters, when she needs an emergency blood transfusion. Mixing his blood with hers results in Jennifer gaining similar powers to her cousin, with the lawyer now able to transform into a 6-foot-7, green superhero.
She-Hulk: Attorney at Law is being led by Tatiana Maslany as Jennifer Walter AKA She-Hulk, who is a lawyer specialising in superhuman-oriented legal cases. Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame star Mark Ruffalo will reprise his role as Bruce Banner AKA The Hulk in the series, alongside The Incredible Hulk star Tim Roth, who steps back into the role of Emil Blonsky AKA Abomination.
Created by Jessica Gao with Kat Coiro leading the directing team, She-Hulk: Attorney at Law also stars Benedict Wong, Ginger Gonzaga, Josh Segarra, Jameela Jamil, Renée Elise Goldsberry, and Jon Bass.
She-Hulk: Attorney at Law is scheduled to premiere on Disney+ on August 17, 2022, and will consist of nine episodes as part of Phase Four of the MCU.
