She-Hulk: Attorney at Law was by no means a bad series; granted, it wasn’t fantastic either.
I certainly would have watched another season, but I’m not at all surprised that there isn’t one in the works.
She-Hulk: Attorney at Law is set to receive somewhat of a successor though.
As brought to our attention by The Direct, new MCU series Wonder Man could be the perfect replacement as this project will seemingly share She-Hulk’s comedic DNA.

Wonder Man is set to star Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, of Aquaman and Watchmen fame, as Simon Williams, a superpowered actor attempting to navigate Hollywood.
I’m going to be real with you; it’s my job to know things and I had zero idea this series existed.
I literally consume news, reveals, updates, and announcements almost every minute of every day.
Where was Marvel hiding this one?
Wonder Man will be set in Los Angeles and, as I said, continue She-Hulk’s brand of meta storytelling and humour.
It goes without saying that there’s a world in which both Wonder Man and She-Hulk can exist, but I’m glad to see that the MCU isn’t abandoning comedy altogether at the very least.
Wonder Man is actually due to bring back a familiar MCU face: Ben Kingsley’s Trevor Slattery.
Slattery has surfaced in Iron Man 3 and Shang Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, making Wonder Man the character’s third project.
Wonder Man is being categorised as a ‘Spotlight’ MCU title like Echo.
The idea is that people with very little MCU knowledge can easily dive into these series.
Personally, I think you’d be missing out on a fair bit if you entered Echo without knowing about Daredevil and Kingpin.
As for when Wonder Man will launch, it’s currently slated for a December 2025 release.
As for She-Hulk, perhaps she’ll return in Avengers: Doomsday or Secret Wars? If the world is at stake, I can’t see why Bruce Banner wouldn’t call his strong, muscly friend up.
