Just when we thought the Marvel Cinematic Universe couldn’t get cooler, we learn that Megan Thee Stallion is joining it. Yup, you read that, Megan Thee Stallion is a part of the MCU.
According to a profile done on her in The Cut, she has been cast in Marvel’s Disney+ series She-Hulk. The news was confirmed by Deadline; she will make a cameo in an upcoming episode.
Honestly, I’m pretty excited about this. I have no idea what we can expect from it, and I have no idea where they’re going with it, but I am intrigued. After all, this is Megan Thee Stallion we’re talking about!!
Who is Megan Thee Stallion playing in She-Hulk?
Apparently, Megan will play herself (or a character very similar to her). From what we know, she will cross paths with Josh Segarra’s character, Augustus “Pug” Pugliese. Whether or not she will be in more than one episode is unclear, but fingers crossed!
Segarra told Deadline a bit about the episode during the show’s red carpet premiere: “A gentleman is being catfished by somebody that lives in another universe, let’s say. Another world.” He also confirmed that this catfisher is pretending to be a recording artist (going to assume its Megan Thee Stallion) and his character will think that “he’s dating one person, and he’s not, so we need to help him figure that out.”
I don’t know about the rest of you, but I am here for this cameo! And Megan Thee Stallion’s cameo is one of many in She-Hulk. We’ve already seen Mark Ruffalo’s Bruce Banner and Tim Roth’s Abomination. Benedict Wong’s Wong and Charlie Cox’s Daredevil are also set to appear. I can’t wait!
She-Hulk airs new episodes every Thursday on Disney+.
