Deadline is reporting that Renée Elise Goldsberry will co-star opposite Tatiana Maslany in the upcoming Marvel series She-Hulk for Disney+.  Goldsberry would play a character referred to as Amelia.

The comedy series will center on the eponymous heroine (Maslany), aka Jennifer Walters, an attorney who has similar powers to her cousin, Bruce Banner/The Hulk.

Ginger Gonzaga was recently cast as Walters’ best friend and Avengers star Mark Ruffalo will reprise his role as The Hulk and Tim Roth is reprising his Hulk character of The Abomination on She-Hulk.

The series will be directed by Kat Coiro and Anu Valia, with Jessica Gao serving as head writer.

Goldsberry earned a Tony Award, Grammy Award, Drama Desk Award, and Lucille Lortel Award for her role as Angelica Schuyler in Hamilton.  Her credits also include Netflix’s Altered Carbon and NBC’s Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist.

Angelica! A Schuyler sister. She is witty and Marvel cast her because she is a Schuyler sister that elevates their status.

Ha- well-played.

She is absolutely amazing in Hamilton- happy to have her in The MCU, hope it's an important role in the series' story.

yes. That is what She-Hulk comics are mostly about. Comedy. Hell she was breaking the 4th wall before Deadpool even existed.

Well there is a She-Hulk character called Amelia Hopkins, but she was a High School rich-girl rival of Lyra's She Hulk, so I doubt they will be the same character
