Jennifer Walters will become She-Hulk in the upcoming She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, but one detail suggests that her cousin, Bruce Banner, helped her become a hero before the events of Avengers: Endgame. The MCU’s Phase 4 has dealt with not only the fallout of the epic Infinity Saga (the MCU Phases 1-3) but has also introduced a new generation of heroes. She-Hulk will introduce Jennifer Walters while continuing elements of Bruce Banner’s “Smart Hulk” character development from Endgame, but Banner’s appearances in She-Hulk’s promotional material and the post-credits scene of Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings suggest that Walters’ superhero origin takes place before her cousin restored half of the universe’s population.
She-Hulk will likely follow Walter’s comic book origin story, in which she’s saved from a fatal injury by Bruce Banner via a blood transfusion, which also results in her gaining similar powers to her cousin—though in her case they’re only physical, leaving her mind unaltered. Bruce Banner will not only be the source of Walters’ powers, however, as he’s also shown training She-Hulk in the show’s promotional materials, making him a key supporting character. Banner will be using his Smart Hulk persona in She-Hulk as well, which will not only make his assistance to Walters even more valuable but also indicate the show’s place in the MCU timeline.
