According to The Direct site, the series will bring to life a very interesting and peculiar aspect of the Marvel Cinematic Universe: The Breaking of the Fourth Wall.

Reports indicate that there will be “several times” when Jennifer Walters / Woman-Hulk (Maslany) will address the public directly. Additionally, it is believed that Jennifer will know that she is a character within the MCU.

It’s worth remembering that despite the similarities to “Deadpool” (which uses the same resource in the movies and in the comics), Woman-Hulk is no stranger to breaking the Fourth Wall, as she did in The Sensational by John Byrne. She-Hulk comics, in which he constantly laughed at the heroes and reminded them that “they weren’t real.”
