7. There Was Nearly a She-Hulk film in the late 1980s featuring Brigitte Nielsen
While the character never ended up in the real life Incredible Hulk TV series from the late 1970s and mid-1980s, Marvel tried to mount its own She-Hulk film in the late 1980s. The task went far enough into development for the studio to shoot some concept photographs featuring Brigitte Nielsen (Red Sonja, Beverly Hills Cop II) and it was even announced at the Cannes Film Festival in 1991 alongside an eventual spin-off of Dolph Lundgren’s disliked Punisher film. Production came apart when the company failed to produce enough cash to begin filming. As far as Nielsen was concerned, it was absolutely an intriguing look for She-Hulk: they essentially just hurled some green cosmetics on her and a fiercely 1980s comic book-style costume.
8. She was a 1980s Fashion Icon in Marvel Comics
John Byrne’s Sensational She-Hulk series was never reluctant to experiment with some new and fascinating things. Furthermore, the title’s acclaimed 1980s run is known for building up a great part of the identity and look fans have come to adore about Jennifer Walters. Since she worked as a lawyer, Sensational She-Hulk gave the green super heroine a role as a fashion icon of sorts, attracting correlations with Melanie Griffith. When she wasn’t out beating down super scoundrels, she was wearing smart dresses and pantsuits or exemplary 1980s attire.
