Maslany’s History of Disney Criticism

Maslany has a track record of blasting Disney leadership.

In the summer of 2023, she attacked CEO Bob Iger over his strike comments, calling him “completely out of touch” with the workers who make Disney’s shows possible. She accused the company of exploiting crews, cast, and writers, saying executives hoarded wealth while those on the ground were taken advantage of.

Controversial Remarks On Trans Kids

The actress has also sparked backlash over her remarks on parental rights. In June 2023, Maslany argued that parents should not have control over how their children identify, saying, “It should not be in the control of parents how a child identifies. That isn’t a parent’s place — it’s an overreach.”

She added, “Children have rights. Children are human beings who know themselves and we should be taking cues from them.”

The comments were praised by woke activists but slammed by critics who accused her of undermining parental authority.

What’s Next for Maslany in the MCU?

Maslany starred in Disney+’s She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, a show that suffered from low viewership and high production costs.

A second season is not moving forward, though rumors suggest she could briefly return for Avengers: Doomsday, only for her character to be erased from the MCU.
