For the majority, She-Hulk: Lawyer was a surprise, and not necessarily delicious. The Disney+ series has been receptive to reviews due to its lackluster performances and weird comedic bits that aren’t uplifting or fresh. Although Tatiana Maslany brings him an A game, it’s definitely not his best. After setting a standard with black orphanthe actress certainly disappointed in her Marvel debut.

Not all the blame for She-HulkThe less than warm reception can be put on the shoulders of its lead actress, Tatiana Maslany. The Phase 4 projects all displayed a massive digression from the usual tenor of what the Marvel fandom was otherwise accustomed to, with the exception of Thor: Ragnarok and Guardians of the Galaxy. These two films had invented the perfect recipe for blending comedy into films depicting the end of worlds and yet making them a box office hit.

These major milestones had been worthy of the directorial genius of Taika Waititi and James Gunn. Now, however, the closing series of Phase 4 has been a mixture of these two projects after She-Hulk director, Anu Valia recently explained what the creators tried to project in the series with their confusing mix of socially relevant serious themes and satire with straight-up comedy.
Anu Valia tells what happened in the making of She-Hulk
Director Anu Valia recently spoke in the friends from work podcast about her time on the MCU show, mostly talking about where the director tried to draw inspiration from while building the series’ fundamental tone.
“It’s funny because you want to do a favor for the fans, but you also want to create something new and not come from a place of fear… Just from a place of history… in a truthful and funny way I feel like I really balance the comedic tone and the emotional heart of the show, Jessica and Kat laid such a groundwork that I just built from that.
But I know personally, I was watching what Taika Waititi did with Thor: Ragnarok… Like, he balanced that so well. I think that was maybe, outside of the Marvel movies, at the forefront of my mind. But I can’t say I created the tone or anything, but it was kind of like building.

Despite delivering a few good projects after the Grand Finals of Phase 3, the entirety of Phase 4 as a whole was pretty unremarkable. The sheer nonchalance towards She-Hulk proves the already established fact that the series has been a confusing mix of emotions relying heavily on socially acceptable mockery of what the MCU has been building for over a decade.
