Tatiana Maslany on ‘She-Hulk’ Season Finale and Potential Future Cameos

Laura Sirikul

She-Hulk’s season finale premiered last Thursday with what seems to be an unconventional happy ending. Jen/She-Hulk (Tatiana Maslany) became the writer to her own story as she broke the fourth wall and confronted Marvel Studios — including the She-Hulk writers’ room and K.E.V.I.N.

NOC Review: ‘Werewolf by Night’ is a Bloody, Brilliant Good Time

Mike Manalo

We’ve talked at length about how Phase 4 is the most controversial of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Case in point, the latest risk the studio has to offer, the terrific Werewolf by Night!

NOC Review: ‘Thor: Love and Thunder’ is Thunderously Entertaining and Full of Heart

Mike Manalo

Yeah. I know. We’re at a point with the MCU where critics and audiences are feeling fatigue, and becoming harder to please. And that’s totally reasonable. We get a Marvel Studios product at least once a month. And maybe some work better than others.

Laura Sirikul
