‘It’s not acceptable to ask…’: The Boys actor is shocked by the behavior of certain fans

Valorie Carr joined The Boys in the final season 4 of Prime Video’s satirical superhero series as heroine and far-right activist Misty Tucker Gray, also known as Firecracker.

In a video message posted on Instagram on September 7, the actor mentioned meeting two fans who were “angry” when he didn’t receive an “inappropriate” request from them.

The actor said that while his terrifying character did “some pretty extreme things” on the show, it was unacceptable to ask him to act like a firecracker himself.

“I just got back from the first day of Comic-Con in Belfast, Northern Ireland and overall everyone was fantastic“- he began. “I’ve just started doing these conventions on my own and everyone, for the most part, has been so lovely and kind and respectful – it’s been really great. But we need to talk about boundaries and what is appropriate in terms of behavior. I know people have seen the character I play do some pretty extreme things in The Boys. I don’t care if you’re in costume, I don’t care if you’re in character, it’s okay and it’s not fun to ask me these things in person in my booth. It’s not good.“

He added:Honestly, to the person who did this a few times today, I made it very clear that it was wrong and it only pissed him and his friend off. I didn’t think it needed explaining, but I was deeply uncomfortable—it was pretty obvious that I was. Honestly, you should know. Everyone knows better. I don’t know what reaction you were looking for. Nobody laughed.“

We have a zero tolerance policy for this behavior and if a guest or member of the public feels harassed, please report your concerns to a member of our security team.“
