If they don't cast a green actress, I'm starting a petition.

Lynn Collins would had been great. But she’s probably older than what they’re looking for.

Depends if you want to get someone with a physique like She-Hulk already and only minimal acting skill, or if you want someone with good acting skill and a physique that's only athletic. I doubt you could find someone with both the physique and acting talent to match. If you're going with the former, then maybe someone like Mayling Ng:   She's had a few small roles in various movies, mostly playing villains, so she has some semi-decent acting experience. But if you're looking for someone with more acting chops then I doubt you'll find someone with the musculature to match. At this point I'd just pick a naturally big and athletic actress for the part. Someone like Blake Lively or Adrianne Palicki. Jennifer Walters is supposed to be 5'10" after all, and both these actresses are the right height and have enough acting skill to pull it off. Not sure they can afford Blake Lively though. |

Wouldn't surprise me at all if they just hire in-house and cast Gina Carano.

She used to be buff back when she competed in the UFC but eversince her defeat to Cyborg she's just been bulky. If you're picking someone for her physique, might as well go for someone like Brooke Ence (or even Brigitte Goudz). Her acting can't be that much worse than Carano's but at least her body is a lot closer to She-Hulk. |

I don't like the Gina Carano one I just don't think she fits the character and the actress doesn't have to be buff cuz it's not like Mark Ruffalo is buff. there is different versions of She-Hulk but I think they'd have to go with the one that gets gigantic and stuff cuz if she's just a green woman she'll be too much like gamora |

Either: 1. You hire an actress with good acting skills and simply CGI her muscled Hulk form... in which case you wouldn't pick Carano because there are so many actresses out there who can run circles around her acting talent. Or 2. You focus on finding someone with the matching physique and don't prioritize acting talent, in which case there's a bunch of lowkey actresses and stunt women out there with far better physiques than Carano and just as much (or little) acting skill. |

I'd rather they find a good actor with a good physique. Even if they have to hide it Steve Rogers style. Just like Daredevil, I'd rather have someone I can believe is also a lawyer. And I don't think she has to be overly bulky. Just athletically muscular. She can be "magically" strong like Hulk and Superman and Thor. Hell, even get someone just a little bigger than Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman.

A good actress built like a professional crossfitter or weightlifter (or even gymnast) is going to be difficult to find. Someone built like a volleyball or tennis player is more doable. Which is why I originally suggested Blake Lively and Adrianne Palicki, as both are pretty big women (5'10" and 5'11" respectively) and sport heavier, fuller figures than Gal Gadot. Though now that I think about it, have you guys ever heard of Gemma Atkinson? British actress, mostly sticks to British soap operas but she's a decent actress. 5'9, attractive, and these last few years got into a fitness craze. Someone like her would work:

Someone like her would work: Yeah, when I said Gal I was thinking more that you don't get much in the way of women going all out with training like you do with guys. I mean you see the Larsons and Gadots training hard for those roles, but not much else. When I say athletically muscular I mean you can see the muscles. Not a bulky woman like a Julia Vins. I think She-Hulk should be more like a green version of Captain America. Not really a girl Hulk. Just a woman that grew taller and gained muscle.
I think Gemma would be perfect. I'd even say if not like her, even a little smaller (again magic strength). Hell, I'd be alright with her using her own accent. She's Bruce's cousin and can be from anywhere for the live actions.

Ronda Rousey would be a terrible choice she does not have Jennifer Walters essence at all. I think a tall brunette who is a believable lawyer would be the best choice. It's not all about being big or tough you have to think about how she'll talk and I just hope they stay close to the comics. someone like Ronda Rousey doesn't need to be the She-Hulk she's freaking Ronda Rousey. that's my problem with Gina Carano to these women are tough and badass without turning big green and muscular you got to keep that in mind. |

Emily Blunt. I'd rather acting ability chosen over physique...I don't think the likes of Carano or Rousey have much range other than moody or violent.
