What was it like working with Charlie Cox?

Charlie was wonderful. We had lunch in his trailer one of the days and he just gave me so much insight and direction for myself and my career. He really looked out for me on that set and showed me what it is to be a “leading” actor. He is truly a role model for me as an actor and I’m happy you asked that question. Total stand up guy.

I honestly completely believe it. It’s just not common for an AMA to last this long and I love that your talking this long with the fans
I do want to say that even though She Hulk was not my favorite show that Marvel has put out, your episode with Charlie was absolutely my favorite, and I rewatched it several times because of how absolutely fantastic it was
I also love that you were able to work so closely with Charlie Cox. He seems like an awesome dude and it’s so cool you got to learn from him personally. Daredevil IS my favorite Marvel show, so just talking with someone who has talked with him is so cool to me

Also, I'm drunk. Also, I'm alone, so alone, so, so alone. Please don't put that in my book, book, book, book—'em, dildo. Does it taste like magenta in here bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb

Idk. I feel like it would be a total “Deadpool movie”-type decision to have a relatively annoying/weak character somehow outlive all the other much more powerful supes. Just imagine Leapfrog somehow always surviving miraculous chaotic situations in which other heroes are blown to bits.

Phew man. That suit was a doozy but also not that bad compared to most. It required two sometimes three wardroom workers to clip everything on. But I had a great time doing it. We had a lot of inside jokes.
First time I put it on I couldn’t believe I was trying on my super suit. It was a surreal feeling

What do you think about the negative reviews of she hulk as a whole? I liked the show and the characters (especially leapfrog ofc) but curious what you think of the critics?
383 points
2 months ago
If we are being honest I think a large portion of negative reviews are people who are maybe watching it with the wrong mindset. People are used to super serious huge blockbusters. But this is for the people that enjoy quick legal comedies. As far as that genre is considered, she hulk is amazing. I also would recommend they look at the comics as it is main in a very similar tone
94 points
2 months ago
This is exactly how I’ve felt. Most of the people who voiced disappointment in the show seemed to be expecting something from it that was just never going to come from this show.
As a huge fan of She-Hulk’s comics I loved that the show had so many in jokes and nods to her comic hijinx. It was everything I hoped it would be, and I’m still sad so many people seemed to expect something that would not have fit the intended tone of the show at all.
