People are surprised to find out She-Hulk was played by a man

She-Hulk: Attorney at Law placed women front and centre (the clue is in the name), which is why fans were so shocked to discover the titular character was played by a man in a key scene.

In the scene, we see Maslany replicating the opening of the vintage show as she transforms into the Green Goliath after hurting herself while changing a tyre. Check it out:

We know this thanks to behind-the-scenes footage shared by Lewis himself, showing him in the full green garb as he gives his best She-Hulk snarl.

Prior to this shot, he explains: "It's funny, I've been seeing people post this She-Hulk TikTok video but a lot of people still haven't realised that She-Hulk was played by a man."

Alongside the footage, Lewis posted a couple of BTS shots too, showing him covered head to toe in green paint alongside a wig.

"Yes motherf**kers, that's me," he says, adding in the comments section, "The body of She-Hulk will never get any recognition but I was grateful to do it."

Plenty of people were on hand to share their praise for Lewis' feat, with one writing: "I told my nephews that when it came out, so I had to show them the TikTok and they were like wow... so thank you for being the representation for POC."

Another said: "I was so hyped when you first posted it and now every time I watch I’m like I know that body!!"

"I didn’t know," added a third. "That’s so awesome."

That it is. And while we're at it, another person who deserves a mention is Malia Arrayah Nahinu, the 6'5'' performer who also stood in as She-Hulk as an on-set reference and stunt double for a number of scenes.
