MOVIE: She’s the He (2025)
Full of over-the-top humour with an authentic heart, She’s the He is a bold reinvention of the high school teen comedy, joyfully reframed through a much-needed queer and trans lens.
Tired of everyone assuming they’re gay, Alex (Nico Carney) convinces best friend Ethan (Misha Osherovich, Freaky) they should come out as trans women. Alex sees it as an excuse to get closer to his crush, Sasha (Malia Pyles, Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin). But when Ethan steps out as a woman for the first time and experiences warmth and acceptance, she realises she actually is trans. After their scheme is inevitably exposed, Ethan must work to rebuild everyone’s trust as she prepares to come out – for real this time.
Directed by non-binary filmmaker Siobhan McCarthy, and made with a predominantly trans, non-binary and queer team on both sides of the camera, the film hilariously skewers anti-trans panic around locker rooms with rapid-fire punchlines, playful indie flourishes and a standout performance from Osherovich.
