The Marvel Cinematic Universe has undoubtedly noticed a slump in quality postAvengers: Endgame. Most new heroes introduced to replace the OG ones did not work well among fans. While heroes like Shang-Chi and Moon Knight shone, She-Hulk was highly criticized by fans worldwide.

According to new reports, She-Hulk may return to the MCU in the upcomingCaptain America: Brave New World. As if the film was already into enough complications with its several reshoots, this report has disappointed the fans on a different level.
Several reasons made the Disney+She-Hulkseries a total cringe-fest with bizarre VFX all around. Although the critics were not so harsh with it, the fans declared it to be meta garbage. After such a poor reception, the fans were surprised to see her return so soon in a new MCU project.

Captain America 4reportedly takes a huge risk with its mini-Avengers
Since we lost most of our OG favorites after The Infinity Saga, the MCU has not been the same. It is tough to figure out who will be the heroes in the new core Avengers team. While we will get a definite answer in the upcomingAvengers 5, the Kevin Feige studio is reportedly planning to bring a mini version of the team inCaptain America: Brave New World.

It was reported by a scooperHolyField Newsthat this new team will have Sam Wilson’s Captain America, Hulk, Joaquin Torres’ Falcon, Black Panther, and She-Hulk. Another scooperAlexsuggested that Wong may also appear in the film but there is no confirmation. As if the film was not “Hulk-y” enough, Tatiana Maslany’s reported addition to the cast raises more questions.
With Tim Blake Nelson and Liv Tyler coming back afterThe Incredible Hulk, it was expected thatCaptain America 4may be a secret Hulk film in disguise. Although Mark Ruffalo repeatedly stated that he is not in the film (viaVariety), his possible addition along with She-Hulk almost confirms that the story will be directly connected to the Hulk-blood storyline we witnessed inShe-Hulk.

It also connects to the report that the MCU may also be working on a possible World War Hulk project. But looks like the fans are not excited to see the return of Jennifer Walters so soon.
The fans don’t care about She-Hulk enough
TheCaptain Americatrilogy is hailed as one of the best MCU movie series. It is concerning how the studio wants to play differently with this new Captain America played byAnthony Mackie. Despite the plot ofCaptain America 4being heavily connected to Hulk’s lore, the fans do not want to see She-Hulk be a part of the team.

Besides She-Hulk’s presence, a certain group of fans are also discussing Shuri’s Black Panther. Most fans cannot figure out what will be her role in the upcoming film. However, no matter how messy it sounds, it should not be forgotten that these are rumors and will make no sense until we get some official update.
Captain America: Brave New Worldwill be released on June 14, 2025.
