About the character, krypke stated, “He has this mixture of weakness and insecurity with power and ambition. A deadly combo. Of course he feels like a victim. All he wants is to be the most powerful person possible, even if he is completely inadequate to deal with his own skills.”

The producer took the opportunity to criticize the common characteristics between Trump and the character of starr. “It’s a bigger problem than Trump. The weirder public figures act, the more fans they get. This is a phenomenon we want to explore. Homelander realizes he can show who he really is, and people will love him.” “
