Guys: Did this character change cast in Season 4?

As popular as ever, The Boys continues to surprise fans with each new season. While its crazy screenplay is enough to keep them hooked, what makes them more amazed these days are the actors’ transformations. And the latest: Laz Alonso, aka Mother’s Milk (or La Crème in French), in Season 4 of Amazon’s flagship show.

Indeed, the actor was at the center of rumors at the beginning of the season, when he appeared slimmer and without the iconic beard. Some people thought that he was a completely new artist! Don’t worry, it’s okay Laz Alonso On your screen, Laz Alonso has simply transformed after significant weight loss.

This shocked fans, raising concerns about his health. And yet, as she explained on her Instagram account, the reason for her weight loss is simply because she allowed herself a little more.tent“with the things of which his”The body does not need it“. Alonso attributed the weight loss to removing unnecessary items from his diet.

In an interview with Men’s Health, the actor said that he lost almost 40 pounds for the 4th season of the series.

“I was in a calorie surplus when I started the series. The first and second seasons, I wanted to be like the comics. We shot the third season during and after Covid and I went from the comic to a very bloated version of the comic“, he explained. Alonso’s Achilles heel? Like most of us, food delivery apps led him to find the best pizza and burgers in Toronto. As a result, she gained 40 pounds – something she says she didn’t even notice until the series’ promotional posters came out.

While preparing for Season 4, she met with series showrunner Eric Kripke, who told her that her character “would go through a big transition“. Thus, the actor used this intrigue as a motivation to get back in shape. However, fans couldn’t help but express how they didn’t recognize him and wondered if it was really him.

Check out some impressions posted on X (formerly Twitter) below:

“Damn, Laz Alonso looks really different this season! I thought they redid MM for a second!“

“Laz Alonso might actually be the craziest weight loss case since I thought they changed the cream to The Boys. He must have the most conflicted look I’ve ever seen, because you mean he just shaved?“

“Is Laz Alonso sick? I hope not, I hope he was reduced for another role. The boy was sweating!“

“I only watched the first episode but I thought they redid MM. I had to Google “Laz Alonso weight loss”.“

“I started The Boys. I hope everything will be fine with Laz Alonso. I wasn’t familiar with it to the point where I thought it was remade.“

Starlight also leaves fans confused

And no, Laz Alonso Not the only one in this case. Earlier, Erin Moriarty (Starlight) was also criticized for her facial transformation. The actor also came under fire from Megyn Kelly over allegations that she had plastic surgery earlier this year.

Even there, the fans were worried about him. However, as Moriarty himself explained, this is absolutely not the case, and as Vanity Cosmetic Surgery Hospital noted, the noticeable change in his face can be attributed to “Weight loss and even aging“with”Various makeup techniques and lighting“.
