Marvel Rumor Teases Megan Thee Stallion's Upcoming Role in the MCU

The upcoming She-Hulk series is captained by a Marvel Cinematic Universe rookie, but Tatiana Maslany's Jennifer Walters will have plenty of familiar faces in her supporting cast. The biggest, both literally and figuratively, is Mark Ruffalo's Bruce Banner, who will appear in both his human and jolly green forms. Rounding out the ensemble are newcomers like Jameela Jamil's Titania and returning stars from 2008's The Incredible Hulk such as Tim Roth's Abomination.

The stacked cast does not stop there. Veteran Marvel actors like Charlie Cox, Benedict Wong, and the late William Hurt have also been rumored to be among the fourth-wall-breaking show's company. 

Those fourth wall breaks have linked the series to the Deadpool franchise, where Ryan Reynolds also directly addresses the audience as if he's not in a movie. That narrative technique allows projects to exist in both fiction and the real world simultaneously, leading way for cameos that may not work in traditional scripted stories.

Classy, boujee, ratchet. 

As discovered by The Cosmic Circus, platinum recording artist Megan Thee Stallion is rumored to have filmed a She-Hulk action scene. Stunt woman Marché Day, who has worked on Loki and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, is listed as a "stunt double for a TBA actress" on She-Hulk.

Day's résumé appears on STUNT POC, which specifically lists her as "Stunt Double: Megan Thee Stallion."

Beyond this anticipated action scene, Megan Thee Stallion is rumored to appear as a "fictionalized version" of herself in "a number of episodes."

Megan Thee Stallion is no stranger to both Hollywood and the comic book movie world. She had a guest verse during the Academy Awards performance of Encanto's "We Don't Talk About Bruno" this past weekend and contributed to Warner Bros.' Birds of Prey soundtrack in 2020.

That said, this would be one of the artist's first acting credits, and it doesn't sound like it's going to be a walk in the park. Bringing in the self-proclaimed Hood Mona Lisa for "a number of episodes" indicates she will have some sort of minor storyline, but the presence of a stunt double only doubles down on that storyline's weight. Considering Marvel will likely paint her in a positive light, this action scene will likely pit her against the villainous Titania.

This "fictionalized version" of Megan Thee Stallion could be an exaggerated version of who the artist already is, like how Elton John factors into Kingsman: The Golden Circle, or she could be subject to some superpowered upgrades.

She-Hulk premieres on Disney+ later this year.
