“She-Hulk: Attorney at Law” actress Tatiana Maslany is calling out the unrealistic body standards associated with being a female superhero.
The star of the new Marvel series, which debuted on Disney+ Thursday, addressed pop culture’s infatuation with heroes being super muscular, telling Entertainment Tonight she loves “She-Hulk” because “she represents a different body and a different perception from the outside.”
“I think that there’s a cultural obsession with the certain physique that goes along with these movies sometimes,” Maslany, who plays lawyer and She-Hulk herself Jennifer Walters, said. “I certainly fell prey to that idea, and I definitely don’t think it’s a thing that we should be pursuing because it’s just these weird standards that none of us can actually keep up with unless we’re going to the gym 1,000 times a week.
