Screen Rant's Pitch Meeting series returns with a new video parodying the new series from the Marvel Cinematic Universe: Disney+'s She-Hulk: Attorney at Law. She-Hulk introduced the character of Jen Walters (Tatiana Maslany), a lawyer who accidentally develops the ability to hulk out after being exposed to the blood of her cousin Bruce Banner (Mark Ruffalo). The series, which also stars Jameela Jamil, Ginger Gonzaga, Josh Segarra, Tim Roth, and Renée Elise Goldsberry, is a cross between a legal comedy and a rom-com, embracing a meta approach that includes Jen speaking directly to the camera, frequently making fun of the tropes of Marvel origin stories.

The show, which ran from August 18 through October 13, was well received by critics, receiving a Fresh 85% score on Rotten Tomatoes. However, it has split audiences, in addition to being review bombed by She-Hulk haters across multiple platforms. Viewers have criticized certain elements of the series, particularly the CGI effects used to bring the title character to life.

Screen Rant's latest Pitch Meeting video is taking on She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, less than a month after its season 1 finale. In an imaginary pitch meeting for the project, a Disney+ executive ignores fears of oversaturating the marketplace with Marvel content, getting excited by many elements, including cameos from the movies. The video also voices concerns about the fact that a character who breaks the fourth wall and is aware she exists inside a cinematic universe might end up breaking said cinematic universe should she ever appear outside her own show.

Will She-Hulk's Meta Humor Hurt the MCU?

Pitch Meeting makes a particularly salient point about She-Hulk's use of meta humor. Although the MCU's movies and series are frequently humorous and can even make jokes about themselves, this is the first time that a character in the franchise has directly acknowledged that she is a fictional construct being watched by an audience. Should it be the case that she exists in the same branch of the multiverse as the rest of Marvel's characters (which is indicated by the presence of Daredevil, Wong, and Abomination, among other MCU cameos), this could potentially be damaging to the reality of the overarching series narrative.

However, the flip side of this is that She-Hulk: Attorney at Law may be paving the way for Marvel's big new acquisition. After buying Fox, Marvel announced that they would be making Deadpool 3, which has since been confirmed for release on November 8, 2024. Deadpool's approach is even more meta, poking fun at anything and everything Marvel, so it's possible that Walters' and Deadpool's abilities to address the audience will be part of a larger scheme that will impact the next few phases of the MCU in an interesting way.
