Well, I would hope so! They seem to be at peace in that state so why change it?
When I posted that, I wasn't sure how well they'd pull of that complex of a mo-cap character on a TV budget. But then I remembered that they seem to be giving these more or less movie budgets, so it probably won't be a problem. If they can pull off the kind of crazy shit we're seeing in the Loki trailers, Banner Hulk probably won't be a problem.
Banner Hulk was one of my favorite parts of Endgame, so I'm hoping that will be the version we get.
 
Anais Almonte. She's an actress but also a stunt performer, so could be there in either function.

Thinking a bit more about potential She-Hulk adjacent characters she could be Titania. (If she is let's hope for the sake of Agents Of SHIELD's canonicity her boyfriend doesn't also show up.)
I mean, I'd prefer not to see a debate on whether Agents of SHIELD is canon, which Creel showing up would certainly lead to (ironically, deliberately not using a character to avoid contradiction doesn't tend to lead to the same types of thoughts that the show is in-continuity). However, the Marvel Universe has recast actors before. Even if he did show up and had a different actor, the relevant question should be whether the two appearances are consistent. But, since that won't be the question, I'd rather not see the debate right now.
Which is a shame because I actually really like the Absorbing Man and Titania's relationship in the comics - especially in Saladin Ahmed's Black Bolt series.
 
Illuminerdi has another big scoop: Supposedly Tenoch Huerta (Narcos) has been cast as Namor for Wakanda Forever.

Considering the messy rights issues regarding Namor, I'm much more skeptical of this report. We'll see if this gets collaborated by anyone else.
Hmm, he’s 40, which on the one hand might be a little long in the tooth to be cast as a guy who spends most of his time in his swimming trunks (for his debut into the bargain; presumably they’ll want to get another 5-10 years out of the character). But Bozeman, RDJ, Paul Rudd and others in the MCU were also far from the first flush of youth when first cast.
 
Are there any animated Marvel series airing right now or coming up in the near future, other than Spidey & His Amazing Friends, MODOK and What If??
I was just kind of surprised we don't appear to have any more traditional style Spider-Man or Avengers series, or anything like that.

I Am Groot.
 
I think I missed the annoucement of that. Although it's still not quite was I was talking about, I was talking about things more along the lines of the Avengers Assemble/Ultron Revolution/Secret Wars/Black Panther's Quest, and the Spider-Man series that last aired last year.
 
Cool, she was great on The Good Place.
Oooo, I hadn't heard about that.
It's a CGI Disney Junior series, so it's aimed at preschool age kids.
Here's the theme song, from Fall Out Boy's Patrick Stump, who will also provide the score for the full series.

I have to admit, it actually looks kinda cute.
