She-Hulk: Attorney at Law the Tatiana Maslany-led series is what most refer to as a courtroom comedy, with humor being very much at the series’ core. It was written by comedians and writers from some of the funniest shows on television. To that aim, She-Hulk filmmaker Anu Valia has stated that she found inspiration for fusing comedy and superheroes in Taika Waititi’s Thor: Ragnarok.
“It’s ironic because, as a fan, you want to serve the community while simultaneously wanting to invent something fresh and free of fear. Just a story, told in a real and humorous style,” In a recent conversation with coworkers, Valia said “I believe I was really Jessica and Kat set such a solid foundation for the show’s humorous tone, balancing that with its emotional core, that I just built on it.”

“But I know personally, I was looking, I feel everybody feels this way, I was looking to what Taika Waititi did with Thor: Ragnarok. Like, he balanced that so well. I think that was maybe, out of the Marvel films, that was like the most forefront of my mind,” she added. ” Even the technical thing of like improvising with a CGI character, that type of stuff. So personally, that movie was on my mind a lot. But I can’t say that I created the tone or anything, but it was sorta like building off.”
She-Hulk: Attorney at Law will premiere new episodes every Thursday, only on Disney+.
