‘Existing as She-Hulk is af-k you and I love it’: Tatiana Maslany reveals the show’s writers ‘are thrilled’ by making her character subversive to take fans’ rights away Marvel’s Incel” in style

by Tatiana Maslany She-Hulk just wrapped up a few days ago and it was undoubtedly one of the most unique season finales. It’s a whole new approach taken by the MCU. The show cleverly weaved a story where the audience themselves became its main villain. The main story lead recently explained in an interview how crazy they feel trolling those who troll them.

She-Hulk: Lawyer has been criticized since the first episode for several reasons. The series’ below-average storyline and visual effects garnered much negative word of mouth for the series. On top of that, some toxic fans having issues with a female superhero and Daredevil’s tonal shift added to the problem.

The unique writing of the show Tatiana Maslany

Speaking to Variety, Tatiana Maslany revealed that the writers hinted at the poor reception of the show and the character a long time ago. They already knew what type of feedback the character would receive and wrote the story accordingly.

The Jennifer Walters actress said that the writers and the whole team knew that some people didn’t fully welcome a superheroine and so made this extremely crazy decision. They planned to show these nasty critics, an exact mirror of them on screen:

“Jessica Gao is a genius and knows the culture we live in and where she stands when she writes these stories about a female superhero. She knows what that answer will be. As a cast, it was delightful to send each other these troll replies, like, “Oh my god, give them a week and then they’ll literally see this verbatim pop-up on the show and become the villains of the show .” It was passionate.

Moreover, Tatiana Maslany continued that she already expected the reaction of the public. But the actress felt hugely overwhelmed representing the struggle of women on such a big platform.

“Reading the script, it was so true, there is so much resistance to a woman who just exists in this superhero space, there will always be that. I kind of anticipated it. That’s why I also think it’s important. There’s such a right to space held by some people, and even existing as She-Hulk is like pissing you off, and I love it.

Even though the showrunners and Maslany had their fair share of fun, the quality of the show is still questionable. There’s no denying that in addition to misogynistic remarks and toxic fandom, there’s also a great deal of genuine criticism of the series regarding its disappointing visual effects and lack of a good plot.

Despite all the sincere criticism on one side and the hate speech on the other, it is clear that the meta-nature of She-Hulk is impressive. Even the show’s infamous Intelligencia was a mirror image of the actual group of trolls criticizing the show.

Plus, the series finale showcasing the fourth wall breaking in such a clever way was a treat to watch. The character himself coming out of the show, speaking with the creators, and even changing his own show’s ending showcased something the MCU has never seen. You could say the idea for the show was amazing but in some places it didn’t sit well with the fans.

All episodes of She-Hulk can be streamed exclusively on Disney+
