This article contains light spoilers for She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, Episode 2 "Superhuman Law."
She-Hulk: Attorney at Law's latest episode answers a question Marvel Cinematic Universe fans have had since Eternals: Is the body of the Celestial Tiamut still sticking out of the Indian Ocean?
After protagonist Jen Walters (Tatiana Maslany) is fired from her job, the determined lawyer begins searching for new employment opportunities. While scrolling through a site promoting what appears to be quirky careers, a list of article headlines is visible on the right of the screen. One of these links reads, "Why there is a giant statue of a man sticking out of the ocean." While not a direct reference, many have taken the blink-and-you'll-miss-it Easter egg as a nod to Eternals' conclusion which left MCU fans wondering whether the world had noticed the stone body of the Celestial.
While this brief moment answers a long-running question amongst Marvel aficionados, Jen's browsing also contains another sly reference to a character that's yet to be formally introduced into the MCU. Just above the Celestial headline is another link that reads, "Man fights with metal claws in bar brawl" which is likely a reference to Wolverine, a member of the X-Men. The fan-favorite mutant has yet to officially join the superhero franchise but enthusiasts are beginning to voice their thoughts on who should play Logan. Some popular picks include Daniel Radcliffe, Taron Egerton and Karl Urban.
She-Hulk: Attorney at Law follows the story of Jen Walters, a career-driven lawyer who is inadvertently turned into a superhero after being exposed to gamma-irradiated blood. "Jen has had her life planned out for her and has worked really hard to get to where she is as a lawyer, and to have this thing happen to her that sort of derails everything," said Maslany. "It is a bit of an identity crisis. And what I find really compelling about the story is when she’s She-Hulk she’s treated very differently than when she’s Jen. There’s a lot of having to affirm her intelligence when she’s Jen and assert her role and trying to get respect, whereas when she’s She-Hulk there’s this inherent sort of awe inspired by her that’s at odds with how she wants to be perceived.
She-Hulk: Attorney at Law is now streaming on Disney+ with new episodes dropping every Thursday.
