Summary

Antony Starr's acclaimed performance as the villainous, insecure, narcissistic Homelander on Amazon Prime Video's hit series "The Boys" will likely go down as one of the greatest of all time, certainly for television villains. Now in its fourth season, showrunner Eric Kripke and Starr keep finding new directions to push the character in, unlocking more of his dark psyche and shocking audiences with how dastardly. Starr was kind enough to spend some time speaking with us about his work on the series, specifically on Episode 4 of the fourth season, his career, and tease a little bit about what fans can expect from the fifth and final season, which you can listen to below. Please be sure to check out the series, which is now available to stream in full on Amazon Prime Video. Thank you, and enjoy! Check out more on NextBestPicture.com Please subscribe on...
