She-Hulk’s Daredevil instant was a surprise, even for the writers

The Man Without Fear has already made his debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but his biggest role yet is coming next month with Disney Plus’ She-Hulk series. It turns out, though, that bringing Daredevil into the series wasn’t always part of the plan. In an interview with Collider, the show’s creator and head writer, Jessica Gao, explains that her writing staff never understanding they would get Matt Murdock for their show, notion they were happy to find out they were wrong.

Gao says the show’s writers were all huge fans of the Daredevil comics, but they approached She-Hulk with the assumption that Daredevil’s nations would be off-limits, since the character was the center of a remaining Netflix show. While that series was canceled in 2018, and was recently caused over to stream on Disney Plus, Gao and her team initially didn’t know throughout Marvel’s plans to bring Matt Murdock into the MCU.

“I don’t think we ever, in a million existences, thought that we would be allowed to use them, because we didn’t know what the location was of the character,” Gao tells Collider. “And then, I can’t remember how, we got wind that he was coming back and that it was Charlie Cox, and we were like, ‘Wait, does that I mean we can use him? Are we allowed?’ And when they told us yeah, I mean, we couldn’t gain it, we thought we were being pranked.”

It’s no surprise that the show’s writers would be a fan of the narrate, or that he would be a dream addition to the cast. Aside from secretly populate a superhero, Matt Murdock is one of Marvel Comics’ most unpleasant and prominent attorneys, just like She-Hulk’s title protagonist Jennifer Walters. In other words, if you’re going to make a Marvel just comedy, bringing Daredevil into the fold is a must.

Knowing Matt Murdock wasn’t part of the unusual plans does make us wonder how important Daredevil remarkable be She-Hulk’s the overall story. But this many existences into the MCU, it’s hardly a surprise to hear that plans changed midway above the show’s writing, no matter how important they remarkable be.

No matter what Daredevil’s role is in the upcoming series, we also know he’ll be getting his own Disney Plus show in Spring 2024, visited Daredevil: Born Again. Meanwhile, She-Hulk will debut on the streaming service on Aug. 17.
