Many Marvel fans just can't get enough of Wong, so this will certainly be fantastic news for anyone included in that group. On Tuesday, Marvel Entertainment released an official trailer for She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, the next installment of the Marvel Cinematic Universe's Phase Four. The company also released a full cast list in a press release, and listed amongst the other names, such as Tatiana Maslany as the titular green attorney, is Benedict Wong as Wong, officially confirming the character's return.
Along with Maslany in the lead role and Wong as Wong, She-Hulk will star Tim Roth, who reprises his role from The Incredible Hulk as the Abomination. Mark Ruffalo is also back as Smart Hulk, who can be seen in the new trailer in scenes with Maslany. The series also stars Ginger Gonzaga, Josh Segarra, Jameela Jamil, Jon Bass, and Renée Elise Goldsberry. Marvel head Kevin Feige executive produces with Louis D'Esposito, Victoria Alonso, Brad Winderbaum, Kat Coiro, and Jessica Gao. Wendy Jacobson and Jennifer Booth are co-executive producing.
Benedict Wong debuted as Wong in the first Doctor Strange in 2016. He has since become a mainstay in the MCU, appearing in the Avengers movies before more recently popping up in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings and Spider-Man: No Way Home. Fans can currently catch him on the big screen once again with Wong's return in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.
Benedict Wong Is Open to a Wong TV Series
With his frequent MCU appearances, Benedict Wong has been getting a lot of love from Marvel fans recently. As many have even suggested that Wong should get his own solo series on Disney+, the concept made its way back to the actor himself. Speaking on The Tonight Show, Wong said he's all for a Marvel's Wong TV series and even has an idea of what the potential series could be like.
“I'd love it, I'd love it," Wong said. "You know, what happened to Wong during the Infinity War, you know there's a five-year period we could start with... Well, he took a deep breath, because it was pretty full-on out there, wasn't it? Training his students at Kamar Taj...”
In a separate interview with Variety, Wong also said of a possible Wong spinoff, "I’ve been asked this a million times, I could have just gotten them to sign the petition. I’m very flattered, and there are certain answers to certain questions that we need to be answered. We didn’t see him for five years when he went through the portal, so we can fill some storylines there. Let’s wait and see what Marvel does. I always say, ‘Have Portal, will travel.’"
Meanwhile, Benedict Wong fans can also catch the actor as the voice of the titular magician in The Magician's Elephant, an animated movie in the works at Netflix. He will also star in the Netflix series The Three-Body Problem alongside Eiza Gonzaelz, Tsai Chin, and Liam Cunningham.
She-Hulk: Attorney at Law will start streaming on Disney+ on Aug. 17, 2022.
