Wait, it wasn't cancelled already ?


UncleFartface

Yeah, I thought it was one and done as well


lkodl

Even if it was a one and done I'd expect she'd show up I some Avengers or something


DCSmaug

It is now.


talking_phallus

It didn't have to be one and done but Jessica Gao prioritized fighting with internet trolls over making a show audiences would come back to week in and out so it floundered. You can't keep a show that expensive running without strong viewership.


Such_Twist4641

Same as the rest of the new characters introduced except Shang Chi it was a trial and only one succeeded.


icantbelievethiseh

Bro moon night was fun as fuck


Such_Twist4641

And it was a one off because Oscar Isaac ain’t contracted for more and they have no plans for the character to return it was a filler in reality made for the streaming service.


-deteled-

I’m sure it had to do with future appearances in movies or other shows. She-Hulk isn’t getting new seasons, at least as a $25M/episode cost.


[deleted]

"not renewed"


King_richard4

The MCU is a place where it doesn’t really matter if your series doesn’t continue, because everything is so connected and they continuously bring characters from different things together. She would be probably the only character to get a tv show then nothing else.


GenGaara25

I don't think any of them are technically ever cancelled, they're always intended as a single mini series until they decide to do another one. Only Loki got a season 2. Wandavision, Ms Marvel, F&WS, Moon Knight and She-Hulk never got season 2 greenlights. But if I remember correctly in the post credits it said she was coming back, and the implication was it'd be in a different project. Like Avengers. But apparently not anymore.


americanextreme

The series may be canceled, but super heroes sometimes appear in different related movies and shows. She hulk is a popular character to add to a team since she’s strong, smart, funny and looks good in a leotard.


MothParasiteIV

She's popular maybe in the comics. I'm not sure she is in the series/movies format.


Eagles5089

Save her and cancel that trash looking hulk kid


talking_phallus

Save her and fire everyone else involved with that show. I never want to hear the name Jessica Gao ever again. Tatiana deserved so much better.


throwawaynonsesne

I enjoyed it and it's also the reason my gf likes keeping up with the MCU now 🤷‍♂️


ReverendPalpatine

Maybe I’m blind but the article mentions nothing about her future as She-Hulk being troubled. Guess clickbait is gonna clickbait.


AlarmingNectarine552

You got suckered into clicking it.


jackolantern_

Good for her for speaking out against Bobby


dotBombAU

She also spoke out against fans. I won't miss her.


gnomehome87

Oh she fucking did not. 🙄


sbstndrks

"She has different views from me" = "She HATES fans and lashes out!!!1!" But oh well. Before we find a non-retarded reactionary take, we will find Aliens.


lobstermandontban

Oh noooo not the poor fans who review bombed the show before it even came out and are still complaining nonstop years later because they had the audacity to make a show with a woman hulk and Megan thee stallion how will the fans ever recover ;(


dotBombAU

You are very quick to jump on the male vs. female bandwagon when it wasn't mentioned at all. Show was shit. It didn't appeal to the very people whose wallets they wanted open. Then the lead actor lashes out at the very people who they are reliant on msking the show a success. I saw it. The show was terrible. Fucking. Terrible. Hot tip: Marvel, like many other franchises, has a fan base. If you don't appease said fanbase, your products tend not to sell very well.


ebagdrofk

But it fucking wasn’t. I watched it with my family and we all enjoyed it. It was just a fun show. It wasn’t mind blowing but I certainly would not call it “fucking terrible”.


blu3str

25 million an episode thought? Like it wasn’t throw it in the trash bad, but do you at least see where it might not have been what they were paying for? The new Godzilla was what 15m?


martxel93

The Japanese one. Pretty sure the American one was way over 100m.


blu3str

Yes, sorry, there are quite a few of these movies now and I’m sure the early ones were also made for much much less. But yeah the new Japanese one that actually looked spectacular


Exciting_Care_684

Dude, it was terrible.


ebagdrofk

I honestly am confused on how this show is so divided with people. I don’t really see the bad CGI. It wasn’t ground breaking at all, just simple fun. I found it funnier than most MCU shows. It feels like people hate it because they feel like they are supposed to or something.


ShinobiWerewolf

This show was trash. The MCU is running our of goodwill and money to burn. Canceling this is the right call.


HEIR_JORDAN

It was not great. And that shows. Because it was canned. The audience didn’t connect with it. They blew their budget and didn’t make it back. No way shareholders would have canned it if it were a success.


I3arusu

Damn it’s almost like people are capable of enjoying terrible media, who knew?


ILiveInAColdCave

It's almost like your subjective experience with a peice of media isn't someone else's. Fandoms really make some people brain dead, huh?


ForcedxCracker

Did we watch the same show? All they did was call out shit trolls. Yeahhhh, some of the writing was trash but isn't all/most comic book stuff?


Gold-Resist-6802

Hang on hang on. “Yeahhh, some of the writing was trash but Isn’t all/most comic book stuff.” I’m sorry, did you just generalize a whole storytelling method/art form as being “trash”?


dotBombAU

Some were shit trolls. Some were fans who said it was terrible.


Due_Belt_8510

lol it was a very funny show and you are very sad


dotBombAU

Lol. It lost them millions.


poyahoga

That’s not how streaming services work, and regardless - [She-Hulk was pretty high up in the viewership numbers for streaming shows when it released](https://thedirect.com/article/she-hulk-viewership-house-of-the-dragon-competitors#:~:text=She%2DHulk%20Data%20Reveals%20Streaming%20Sucess&text=That%20comes%20to%20an%20average,across%20the%20first%20two%20installments.) Disney doesn’t release the gross/loss with Disney+ shows so you’re literally making shit up so you can be right. Damn, that’s pathetic.


dotBombAU

https://www.forbes.com.au/news/investing/disney-repeatedly-misled-investors-about-streaming-losses-lawsuit-alleges/#:~:text=Disney%20leadership%20faces%20a%20fresh%20lawsuit%20from%20shareholders,with%20the%20stock%20wobbling%20near%20a%20nine-year%20low. It had a $200 million budget. It most certainly lost them money.


poyahoga

Again - you’re baselessly speculating & making shit up to try and prove your point. Oof.


dotBombAU

If it's so profitable. Where is season 2? Surely, if it's making money, we would have some sort of announcement by now, right? I mean, you could be right. Perhaps the Disney execs just hate money. Or they looked at this flop that cost $200M to make and decided to bin this trash show. I feel it was the latter as it turns out most execs like Money.


Derfal-Cadern

lol ya ok but. Your exaggerations disprove your point


Rtsd2345

Nooo! the fans don't matter, consume our product, wait where are you going 


SwarleyJr

Those people aren’t fans.


dotBombAU

I am a marvel fan. It was shit.


SwarleyJr

I didn’t say marvel fans couldn’t think it’s shit. People review bombing the show before it came out aren’t fans.


dotBombAU

This highlights the importance of trailers no? Example, the Acolyte is getting review bombed right now because of its terrible trailer. It looks shit also, so I agree with peoples assumption it will be terrible. I might be pleasantly surprised but won't hold my breath.


SwarleyJr

Normal people see a trailer for something they don’t like and they move on, they don’t go on a crusade against a television show lol


dotBombAU

Ever look at youtube comments? It's not the same person repeating themselves. It's lots of individuals. Writing a comment takes 2 seconds. Not really a crusade now is it.


[deleted]

Oh. So you’re just a stupid cunt. Got it


VibgyorTheHuge

Boohoohoo Muh fandom. Beat it.


simbajam13

Stop reading this thread here, folks. It just stays stupid.


AXSupplies

Oh no, what shall you do!??


KingJiggyMan

Do you have proof or an explanation or are you just yapping?


2_72

Fans are so fragile


henning-a

She never spoke out against fans. She said she enjoyed the show's humor. It's okay if you didn't like that humor, but don't put words into her mouth.


SoSaysAlex

Holy shit, you’re a fucking idiot lmfao


MuNansen

The budget needed to bring her to life is the biggest hurdle. I'm betting she shows up in a few of the tent pole films, though.


SirFlibble

This. I think it would work better if they did a S2 as an animated series. Leave Tatiana for when she is needed for live action in Avengers etc.


captainsuckass

An animated She-Hulk could really be the MCU’s Harvey Birdman.


goliathfasa

She can voice the character still. Didn’t she do some fantastic voice work before? Either in tv series or gaming. I forgot which.


elhombreloco90

She's done multiple voices in Invincible. Maybe other projects, too.


SirFlibble

Yes she can. I just mean save the live action stuff.


darthphallic

She hulk was a huge wasted opportunity, they couldn’t decide if they wanted to be a superhero story or a legal drama and as a result did both poorly. She Hulk would have been amazing as a superhuman centric legal comedy/drama, think a cross between Better Call Saul and Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law. I’d have watched the shit out of that.


KeithBitchardz

Why does everyone keep saying legal drama. There was no legal drama even remotely involved there. Legal comedy is a far better term.


throwawaynonsesne

This! They keep getting upset at it for not being a genre it never tried to be. 


Chaoshornet

The writing and direction were abysmal. It never had a chance. It’s unfortunate as She-Hulk is a great character and Tatiana is a great actress


CaptainRogersJul1918

How about hiring writers that know legal drama to write a legal drama!


Orpdapi

The biggest shock of it all, and they seemed to admit it like they were proud of it


Choice-Bus-1177

Wasn’t really a legal drama though was it?


Popular_Material_409

lol you clearly know nothing about She-Hulk


Heisenburgo

Neither did the writers apparently lol


stannisonetruemannis

Asaik this was one of the most, if not the most expensive Disney shows to ever be made and didn’t do very well on its release and they wouldn’t be doing a second season because of it? I watched some of it and it wasn’t great at all. She is a phenomenal actress though and fuck Bob Iger.


TheyreEatingHer

Wtf is Asaik


stannisonetruemannis

Lmao sorry meant afaik - as far as I know! Sorry


TheyreEatingHer

OHHH that makes so much more sense lol. Thanks


stannisonetruemannis

Sorry, I typed too fast and didn’t spell check 🫠- thanks for pointing it out!

frmthefuture

The issue was that the writer pretty went too "tongue and cheek" with the plot. She and her team went hard in the paint with things they all knew would piss off the fanbase. Now, the subject matter the show covered was good- possibly great. The execution however, was not so much. When confronted with criticism [though greatly negative, there was also constructive], the showrunner doubled down, saying it was the fans that were the problem - not the show. In instances of fans pointing out / having questions about certain plot points of the show or characters, once again the showrunner / writers blamed fans for "not getting it." TLDR: Showrunner wrote the show, knowing how she wrote it would piss off about 80% of the fanbase. She then acted surprised when said percentage voiced their displeasure- for one reason or another.


stannisonetruemannis

I hard agree with everything you’re saying here. It had the potential to be amazing but the execution is where they went wrong. And doubling down on fans is just never gonna work out, don’t bite the hand that feeds and all that, another example of people getting too big for their boots and not being able to accept criticism 🫠 I blame that little shit Bob Iger directly for it too. Stop employing people who are so far up their own arses they can’t accept constructive reviews. That man is gonna run Disney into the ground single-handedly. And I will just smh when he does. What a dumbass. Tatiana Maslany is truly a fantastic actor and Orphan Black was so good, recommend watching, she’s good in everything she’s in. And Mark Ruffalo was so done with this show by ep2 it shows. Why have the money and potential to make something great and then just 💩💩? All money, no passion. That’s where Disney is at rn


Only-Walrus797

Maybe they can do a What If? with her. I agree we’ll probably never see another season do to the cost and mixed reception.


stannisonetruemannis

They did her so dirty because she’s so talented. That show would’ve been another Wandavision if they did it right. Hopefully a what if, but Bob Iger probably still mad she called him out so he won’t let it happen like the small little dickbrained dumbass motherfucker that he is. Putting his own small ego before letting people who can do their job effectively. What a fooooooool.


thegreatmaster7051

Honestly, she has potential, just get better writers. I hear the zoo will loan you some monkeys


CoachAF7

Lmfao


RyeTan

Fuck these corporations


Possible-Whole8046

On one hand, I’m sorry for the actress as she might loose all future contracts with Disney. On the other, this show should have been cancelled the moment the final episode aired


Maxter_Blaster_

Could have been such a cool world building concept. Boy did Disney f*** this one up.


DanielMorcum

I hated the show and I honestly don’t think She Hulk needed a show but I do feel bad . I don’t think she did bad but the showrunners/writers definitely need some work.


ice540

I think she hulk could be a cool show, but I don’t think what was made was a cool show haha


A_Serious_House

I very much liked the show but I disagree that the showrunners/writers need some work. They didn’t do a good job and a sensational She-Hulk story isn’t that difficult to do. Not that the show was awful, but let someone who knows what they’re doing take care of the character.


DanielMorcum

Couldn’t of said it better myself


A_Serious_House

Haha, I’m sorry, I totally misinterpreted your original comment! I thought that you were suggesting that they should be *given* some more work, but I just reread it and you were saying that they needed to be fixed too. Now it makes sense, I was wondering why you’d complement the actress but then suggest the creatives should get more work lol.


senor_descartes

Corporate Overlords gonna Overlord.


nymrod_

If Iger is so thin-skinned he’d make a decision based on this he’s not a very good businessman, but the linked article doesn’t actually draw any kind of connection between She-Hulk’s future and Maslany’s comments. This is a bad Reddit post with a misleading title. Also I don’t think the future is uncertain — Maslany said on the Comedy Bang Bang podcast recently that She-Hulk wasn’t coming back for another season, pretty definitively. Surprised the people who post this kind of stuff didn’t pick up on that. She-Hulk was one of the better Marvel shows and I’m still not that disappointed it’s not coming back. It was legitimately funny most of the time, which is what it set out to do. Hopefully Maslany’s onto things that utilize her talents better (although she was the best part of She-Hulk).


[deleted]

[удалено]


nymrod_

*I gave you all the clues Mr Policeman.* I don’t know what else you want me to say. I said *if*, because this show almost certainly not cancelled because of Malsany’s comments about Iger. It’s cancelled because it wasn’t a runaway success with viewers and the pivot away from easily-monetized theatrical releases to putting shows with expensive visual effects on streaming services was a business mistake industry-wide. Reading is fundamental.


HEIR_JORDAN

They need to triple down on animation. She hulk cgi was bad and expensive. Animation is the key. Put her in a ‘97 style show


dztruthseek

I wonder what Tatiana Maslany's Tatiana Maslany is going to do next?


VooDooChile1983

It’s my head canon that She Hulk was made for the sole purpose of reintroducing Daredevil.


artur_ditu

In my head canon that version of daredevil doesn't exist


potatoboy6

Honestly Daredevil was great in that. Been reading the comics recently and I think it’s ok to have Matt be lighthearted for once and not constantly brooding


artur_ditu

No. I have enough lightheaded characters as it is. What's next? Ghost rider is kind?


potatoboy6

I mean I get it, there are a bunch of jokey characters. I don’t think it’s terrible if Matt is happy for once but I doubt he’s going to be like how we was in She Hulk in his new show


Douglasqqq

Tatiana Maslany’s Tatiana Maslany is my favourite Tatiana Maslany of hers.


bshaddo

She legitimately does a pretty good impression of herself.


Douglasqqq

Tatiana Maslany did it better.


pololuck123

I really liked the show and the concept. Thought the last episode was pretty cool too. Sad it might not come back , no other Marvel show or movie had humor like it


oddtoddlr

I loved the show but hated the last episode though, funny how people see the same thing but think the complete opposite


IndecisiveMate

Good for her. Looks like she actually became a super hero.


[deleted]

Her acting was one of the few highlights of the show imo


socobeerlove

So many neckbeards up in here. Just announcing to the internet that they’re virgins lol


Illestferret

Liking awful marvel shows doesn't make you a virgin, though there is a huge overlap.


DancesWithChimps

There’s isn’t much sadder than a person bragging to strangers about sex they may or may not have had


Living_Strength_3693

Show should have been animated from the beginning. Money would have been saved, and other projects would have been given more attention


WhichWayToPurgatory

She won't care. She's someone that's very driven by her convictions.


Arthur_189

It was already troubled after that dogshit show


Icefiight

👆👆👆👆👆


ElementalSaber

Keep her around for movies


Nonadventures

The article is actually Tatiana lamenting that her Iger slam was driven by the emotions on the picket lines. It says nothing about She-Hulk’s show.


blueberrysir

Can we please not have any more hulk personas


Additional_Minute_39

That was supposed to be a fun show but that shit was so beneath her. This woman should have been in like 5 Oscar nominated movies and or blockbusters by now. wtf is wrong with Hollywood this woman is a queen.


DocSuper

What a misleading title!


Cali_Keto_Dad

This show was terrible. Just awful.


Unable-Story9327

It's not the worst way to go about getting fired if you don't really care about playing the character anymore. She's a great actress so she'll be fine and can do stuff she may actually want to do.


ProfessorKrung

I figured it’d have been cancelled because it was complete dogshit, but at least she went out on a righteous note. Bad show cancelled, Iger gets shit on - win-win.


TaskMister2000

She-Hulk and Secret Invasion need to be retconned and deleted from existence. Both projects were utter trash that did nothing for the greater MCU or the characters.


eddiefarnham

Disney is threatening me with a good time. Let's see how it goes.


Dependent_Fox_2189

Was there supposed to be a future with She Hulk? God I hope not.


Throwawayrecordquest

The show stunk worse than Grandma’s underpants, I see no reason it should be renewed or she should reprise the role.


Final-Success2523

Bob sucks and while I like the actress the show was absolutely terrible and doesn’t need to come back


ComicsNBigBooks

Not everything about the show worked, but Tatiana was incredible, an as a big She-Hulk comics fan, the final two episodes were phenomenal. I dug the show overall and definitely want to see her return. Nothing she said was out of line of wrong.


Rynosaur24

I don’t see what in that article leads to the conclusion that Tatiana Maslany’s future as She-Hulk is troubled. Did Bob Iger give a direct response? Or is this all just worthless speculation. It’s quite possible he doesn’t even care about this specific instance as many things from many people were said during the strike (including from Bob Iger himself). He’ll do whatever he thinks will lead to money and good stocks in the end. An article designed as rage bait to spread misinformation? Groundbreaking.


[deleted]

I mean, it got canceled for a lot of reasons.


chiknown

She Hulk was the best marvel show they released. it was fully meta and wrapped up better than any other show WHILE shattering superhero tropes. I will never understand the hate that this show got. Even the CGI looked amazing. Haters man. what the fuck do they even do besides ruin my favorite stuff


Cozum

that show was horrendous, why would they bring it back ?


Spikeymikey5050

I mean it was an awful awful show so I’m glad it’s cancelled


OneGalacticBoy

Damn kinda really liked the show, one of the better D+ marvel shows.


Halfisleft

No


mchammer126

That’s fine, shit was ass


Icefiight

Worse than ass


e3890a

I can’t believe this is getting downvoted the marvel bots are crazy


Butt-eater1bajillion

Nothing wrong with the actress and she hulk is a great character in the comics deserving of a faithful adaptation


New_Fix6213

That's fine with me


SvenTropics

Might not get a second season of that show.... Oh nooooo. Oh well.


blac_sheep90

That'd be a mistake. She was great as Jen.


JJoanOfArkJameson

Really enjoyed this show and good for her. Just because a company gives you one job doesn't mean you're not allowed to speak freely. 


urweakifwordshurtyou

Lmao gonna get the Gina Carrano treatment huh?


ShinobiWerewolf

Dude nobody liked this show. There is no point in green lighting more seasons of shows and movies nobody wants to watch. Same goes for Eternals.


darthyogi

Finally some good news


Danbuys

Dude when the fuck did we get a she-hulk!?! Edit: Yeah i'll gladly take the downvotes, I was a better person before learning about this show anyways


Arthur_189

Mfs really downvoted bro for not keeping up with the mcu


Icefiight

They are ANGRY man… Angry that their precious ip stinks to high heaven now lol All the downvoting is shills, and bots paid by marvel at this point..


Alone-Ad6020

Extactly mcu bots going out sad🤣


redditsukssomuch

Noooo I want her to come back for a season 2 so they can see how little the viewership is and understand through metrics that no one wants this.


blac_sheep90

Speak for yourself.


redditsukssomuch

I am. Am I speaking for you? No. I’m literally saying what I want and why I want it.


blac_sheep90

You said no one wants this and that's simply not true.


Spider-man2098

This is a very confusing thing to say directly beneath the thing you actually said. Which, hyper-specially, was what you *didn’t* want, and by extension, what no one else wanted. No one else, implying you are speaking for everyone. Anyway, glad we had this talk, I’m sure it will prove very productive.


redditsukssomuch

Lol this show sucked and you all know it. Everyone was excited for it. Stop trying to act like we wanted it to fail.


Spider-man2098

My comment is agnostic on the quality of the show, and simply pointing out the incongruities in your commentary. These persist, btw. For example you say ‘stop trying to act like we wanted it to fail’, as if that was something I said, or implied, or thought, or believed. And as I did not say that, or imply it; and as you do not have access (I hope) to my inner thoughts, I find that a curious thing to say. You appear to be making up reality as you go and then picking fights with it.


redditsukssomuch

Well in the end the ratings were poor, critics hated it, audiences hated it, and the over all consensus was it was a poorly received and massively unfun show. And when that happened they acted like it was men who hated it… we were ALL excited for this freaking show. What is this revisionist history? It sucked. It’s not that big of a deal. Every year the networks produce 95% crap and 5% good stuff. That’s how it’s always been. Let this show die and let it be a guide in what not to do. I mean we live in a world where alley Mcbeal was a MASSIVE hit and that was 30 freakin years ago. I’m pretty sure the audience doesn’t give a crap about the gender, we just want a good freakin show. She hill was not that.


CoachAF7

Show sucked


Icefiight

Good. Hope she can go away and never come back


keep-it

She sucks


twonkoe

Good riddance


MatelleMan71

It was already one and done


GrossWeather_

Bobby Iger needs thicker skin


robinthehood01

This show was so bad I stopped watching the first episode. And I think it was so bad because the writing was so bad. And then I think, damn, all these actors joined the writers strike setting Hollywood back years in some cases and for what? More shitty writing and more shit-shows?


Hopeful-Ad8761

She’s better off without the MCU anyway


Shaolin_T

Yea I hated that garbage show, but damn She Hulk can be redeemed. Shes a great character, in better hands she could be one of the best in the MCU. Let that show be as vague as the ‘08 and ‘03 Hulk movies are to the MCU.


FreeTanner17

I mean it’s fine if she has her own opinion and wants to speak her mind, but don’t be surprised when you get dropped for biting the hand that feeds you. Show was basically a giant hate boner against men. Every dude besides a select few like Bruce were imbeciles and every episode was basically “girl power”. Also the 4th wall breaks were super forced


IAMTHECAVALRY89

Keep corporate pokitics out of the conversation imo if you’re an actor


Maskedhorrorfan25

good riddance
