Stephanie Beatriz from 'Brooklyn Nine-Nine' could be Marvel's She-Hulk

The character is the cousin of the Incredible Hulk

Stephanie Beatriz, known as Rosa Diaz from the hit sitcom Brooklyn Nine-Nine, might possibly be the new She-Hulk.

The starlet's debut is expected to be a Marvel character, ever since Disney+ announced She-Hulk, the cousin of the Incredible Hulk, is getting its own TV show and people pointed towards Beatriz to play the character.

The actor responded to the fanfare, confessing that she would "absolutely, 100%, unequivocally take the job if it was offered to her," according to ET. "I would die to play that role. That is so flattering. That is one of the best characters in that universe."

She continued, "I definitely have upped my workouts since reading some of those things. But I also think it will be really exciting for fans to see some of these characters that we kind of decided are one thing to sort of be imagined in a different way."

She-Hulk debuted in 1980 thanks to writer Stan Lee and artist John Buscema, according to Ladbible. It showcased the story of Jennifer Walters, who is a cousin of Bruce Banner's.

Following his initial transformation into the Incredible Hulk, he confides in Walters to explain what happens. However, in the process he also finds out that she has been shot by a crime boss who was after her father. With no medical assistance, Banner gives over his blood because they're the same type.

This leads to Banner inadvertently giving some of his powers to his cousin. Although, she does not relay the same powers as him, she still manages to become incredibly powerful. The only difference between them is that she is capable of retaining her intelligence when she takes the monstrous form.

She-Hulk has been a part of the Avengers crew, Fantastic Four and Heroes for Hire, the Defenders, Fantastic Force and S.H.I.E.L.D. The character is not only a super heroine, but given her intellect and calibre,  also a full-time lawyer who has served as a legal counsel to some superheroes when they had their day in court.
