Antony Starr plays Homelander in the iconic Amazon Prime Video series
A rather deranged and extreme version of Super man, Homelander is the great villain of The Boysseries of Amazon Prime Video based on the comics Garth Ennis It is Darick Robertsonbut the perverse acts managed to attract many fans – and this was criticized by the interpreter of the character, Antony Starr.
During an interview with LA Times, the New Zealand actor explained how he was taken aback when he found out how the character has so many fans. “There’s a really weird thing that’s happened to the character, even though he’s clearly not a nice guy,” he said. “A lot of people have become attached to him. There’s a weird element out there that really idolizes him.”
I saw some shit in the twitter and I was like, ‘Wait, what? You didn’t understand anything at all! What if Superman was a narcissistic sociopath?
At another point in the conversation, Starr revealed how Eric Kripkeresponsible for streaming adaptation, always compares Homelander The donald trump, former president of the United States. “He’s the loneliest guy in the world. He has no one to relate to but himself,” he said.
His isolation is immaculate. It’s almost perfect. He’s not stupid; it’s incredibly emotionally stunted.
