Tatiana Maslany Calls Controversial She-Hulk Twerking Scene “the Greatest Moment” of Her Life Despite It Burying the Show
“She-Hulk: Attorney at Law” marked a turning point for many fans. While critics praised the show, fans largely panned it, citing issues with the story and overall feel.
The show stood out for several reasons. It never attempted to be anything other than light-hearted feminist fun. However, this approach came at a high cost, making it the most expensive project per episode to date, which significantly reduces the likelihood of a second season. Additionally, Tatiana Maslany’s comments criticizing CEO Bob Iger during the months-long SAG-AFTRA strike, where he deemed the actors’ union’s wage demands “unrealistic,” further complicate the show’s future prospects.
However, special effects and Maslany’s performance were the least of the show’s concerns, at least according to fans. One scene in particular drew intense criticism and significantly impacted the show’s ratings: the office twerking scene featuring Maslany’s She-Hulk and Ginger Gonzaga’s Nikki Ramos.
During a recent appearance at Superhero Comic Con, Maslany described the twerking scene as the greatest moment of her life.
I had been to multiple Megan Thee Stallion concerts before this. I was ready. That was the greatest moment of my life.
The actress also mentioned that her favorite line from the show involved Captain America and nearly didn’t make it into the final cut.
Captain America f*cks!!!’ Which almost didn’t make it into the show!
Recently, the star also disclosed that sexist personal attacks didn’t bother her much. She and the showrunner anticipated them and viewed them as part of the experience.
I think what’s exciting…I think what’s fun about it is that [series creator] Jessica Gao built into the story that people were going to troll us.When we started to get the same responses that [Gao] had actually baked into the writing, it felt like part of the fun.
