While the name of Gonzaga's character is currently under wraps, it was reported that she will be playing the best friend of Jennifer Walters/She-Hulk (Maslany) some have speculated that she could be playing Marvel Comics character Jill Stevens. In the comics, Jill and Jen are childhood best friends, and Jill is murdered by crime boss Nick Trask after accidentally being mistaken for Jen. Previous casting calls had codenamed the role as "Suzie", and had specified that comedic experience was a must.

She-Hulk will follow Jennifer Walters' journey as a New York City lawyer, whose life is changed after she gets into an accident, leading to her receiving a blood transfusion from her cousin, Bruce Banner. Mark Ruffalo will be reprising his role as Bruce Banner/Hulk in the series, and Tim Roth will be returning to his The Incredible Hulk role as Abomination. The series will be showrun by Jessica Gao, whose filmography includes Silicon Valley and Rick and Morty.
