Starr appears in the show as Superman stand-in Homelander, with the character aiming to provide a more realistic look at what seemingly unlimited power does to a person, as the character possesses all the strength of his DC counterpart with none of his signature values. SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Big Stakes for Season Fourīased upon the comic book run by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson, The Boys has amassed wide acclaim from both audiences and critics alike, serving as an outrageous response to and satire on the squeaky-clean super-hero genre as it stands in popular culture today. I was looking at the person I was opposite, and I said, 'What are we doing? I can’t believe this! I could have done anything else with my life, but here I am doing this?'' Starr's comments follow a tweet made during filming from The Boys's visual effects supervisor Stephan Fleet in which he said 'I think I just saw the most disgusting thing I have seen working in this business thus far,' assuring fans that audience are in for a wild ride with the show's fourth installment. On filming the upcoming season, the actor said 'there has to be a ceiling, but we can’t seem to find it. When it seemed like things couldn't get more strange for the series following season three's 'Herogasm' episode and that Termite scene, Starr told Variety that season four contains 'the most bizarre thing' he's ever done.

It's been a few weeks since the fourth season of Amazon's The Boys wrapped filming and the experience has clearly left an impact on Homelander actor Antony Starr, who has revealed the show 'somehow gets weirder and weirder and weirder.'
