She-Hulk: Attorney at Law has taken its place as arguably the most interconnected MCU Disney+ series to date, regularly using cameo appearances to help drive its story forward. In the first five weeks alone, fans have gotten full new stories for Mark Ruffalo's Bruce Banner and Benedict Wong's Wong, and that's all before Charlie Cox's Daredevil makes his highly-anticipated comeback in the not-too-distant future.
While She-Hulk has already utilized its fair share of big-name MCU characters to show up, there are still a couple that weren't able to be utilized in Season 1. Most notably, that group includes Tom Holland's Spider-Man, who remains one of the MCU's biggest characters after starring in the MCU's most successful solo movie to date, Spider-Man: No Way Home.
In an exclusive interview with The Direct, She-Hulk head writer Jessica Gao revealed that the team actually wasn't allowed to use Spider-Man, largely due to rights issues in the partnership with Sony Pictures. But that isn't stopping a couple of starring actors from imagining what the story would look like with Holland's friendly neighborhood Spider-Man showing up at some point down the road.
Segarra noted how his character, Pug, actually "gets saved by Spider-Man" in the comics, leading to a dedication to protecting superheroes. Even if the show couldn't get Tom Holland's MCU Spidey, Segarra and Goldsberry would both be happy with either Tobey Maguire or Andrew Garfield as well:Segarra: “Pug in the comic book gets saved by Spider-Man, and that’s why he dedicates his life to protecting superheroes. So, I’m just wondering what Tom's doing. If he’s busy, it’s just a day. One day, we shoot the scene. I’m just wondering what they’re– Andrew, what’s up bro?”
