She-Hulk: Lawyer featured a hilarious and totally unexpected post-credits scene in its third episode, in which Tatiana Maslany’s She-Hulk starts twerking with rapper Megan Thee Stallion.
Episode 3 of She-Hulk included a subplot in which Jen Walters’ former colleague Dennis Bukowski (Drew Matthews) believed he was dating Megan Thee Stallion, only to find he was being tricked by an Asgardian shapeshifter. When he takes the shapeshifter to court, the real Megan Thee Stallion is briefly seen attending the trial.
In a post-credits scene, She-Hulk confronts Megan Thee Stallion as a new client before the two begin dancing and twerking together. Director Kat Coiro has now revealed how this scene came about.
Talking about the twerking scene in She-Hulk: Lawyerdirector Kat Coiro revealed that the time had come on the day of filming to give Tatiana Maslany the chance to dance with Megan Thee Stallion.
In an interview with The Direct, Coiro said the episode was originally written to feature “a celebrity who no one in their right mind would believe would date Dennis Bukowski”. Titania actress Jameela Jamil suggested Megan Thee Stallion, who she previously worked with on Legendary.
“And when we told Tatiana [Maslany] that she was going to, Tatiana was so excited because she’s a real Megan fan,” She-Hulk said the director. Coiro went on to explain how the post-credits twerking moment was brought about:
“And so, this is another example of a scene that was written the day they were dancing and it was really to give Tatiana a chance to dance with Megan. And we were all surprised how she could twerk with others…
“It was definitely around the time we were filming this, and we were looking at each other and saying, ‘Either this is going to be the most amazing thing ever, or we’re going to break the MCU’ (laughs).”
The She-Hulk The scene has predictably divided Marvel fans, but it’s a fun moment that feels right at home in She-Hulk: LawyerThe comic version of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
