Eva Mendes as The Sensational She-Hulk?
[ Written by Robert Sanchez
Friday, 09 February 2007
You heard right, if Nicolas Cage gets his way with mega producer Avi Arad, Eva Mendes will get to wear green paint and a very small bikini as She-Hulk.
Today during the press junket for Ghost Rider, Nicolas Cage revealed to a surprised group of journalists that he is currently trying to get She-Hulk off the ground with Eva to star as the lead green she-monster.
While it may be too early to tell if the folks over at Marvel will take this offer seriously, you can catch both mega stars in Ghost Rider which opens next week.
Wikipedia: Jennifer Walters, the cousin of Bruce Banner (Hulk), is the small and somewhat shy daughter of Los Angeles County Sheriff Morris Walters. Agents of Nicholas Trask, a crime boss who had crossed paths with her father, shot and seriously wounded her on a day that Bruce Banner happened to be in town for a visit. Since no donors of her blood type were available, Banner provided blood for a transfusion; his radioactive blood transformed Jennifer into the green-skinned She-Hulk.
As She-Hulk, Jennifer possessed powers similar to those of her cousin, though at a reduced level. She also possessed a less monstrous, more amazonian appearance. Jennifer's early adventures were chronicled in the 1980 Marvel Comics series The Savage She-Hulk which, following the first issue, were written by David Anthony Kraft.
Although initially uncontrolled while in her form as She-Hulk, she eventually gained the same levels of intelligence she possessed as Jennifer Walters. By the time of the character's first anniversary, she had made a guest appearance in Spidey Super Stories, and was lucid enough to encourage the Rhino to seek a fair trial for an alleged crime he had committed. Jennifer Walters quickly came to appreciate the confidence and assertiveness that came with being She-Hulk. At this point in her character development, she felt more comfortable in her form as She-Hulk than in her "normal" form as Jennifer. After a brief solo career, she joined The Avengers, and temporarily replaced the Thing in the Fantastic Four.
During her tenure with the Fantastic Four, the She-Hulk had to prevent a radiation leak in a downed S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier. This radiation exposure had a drastic effect on Jennifer: she could no longer transform back into her original form. However, this was an agreeable turn of events for her, since she preferred being She-Hulk, and it was revealed much later that the block was purely psychological.
After her Fantastic Four years, She-Hulk rejoined the Avengers and began working for District Attorney Blake Tower. Here she met Louise "Weezi" Mason, formerly the Golden Age superheroine called the Blonde Phantom. She-Hulk later discovered that Mason had manipulated Towers into hiring her, so that Mason might again star in a comic book (and thus avoid dying of old age). Later, while doing legal work for Heroes for Hire, She-Hulk spent some time dating Luke Cage.
She-Hulk currently practices law in the Superhuman Law division of the New York firm of Goodman, Lieber, Kurtzberg & Holliway (GLK&H) (The law firm's name incorporates the names of the founding fathers of Marvel Comics: publisher Martin Goodman; publisher, writer, and creator Stan Lee, [whose original surname was Lieber]; and artist Jack Kirby, [whose original surname was Kurtzberg].) While practicing at GLK&H, Jennifer gradually became comfortable as both She-Hulk and Jennifer Walters, realizing that she has much to offer the world in both forms.
She-Hulk has registered under the Superhuman Registration Act, and is a supporter of Tony Stark (Iron Man). However, as an attorney, she has advised individuals on both sides of the Civil War. She agreed to file suit against Peter Parker for fraud on behalf of her father-in-law, Daily Bugle publisher J. Jonah Jameson. Her intention is to keep the suit tied up in the courts indefinitely. She is also the lawyer for Speedball in Civil War: Front Line.
In She-Hulk #14 (2006), Clay Quartermain, a SHIELD Agent, shows up in Jennifer's apartment to inform her that she has been drafted as a SHIELD agent as a result of her registration. Wikipedia
