Antony Starr opens up about Homelander's chances of not only surviving Billy Butcher and company, but also being redeemed in Prime Video's TheBoys: 'I wouldn’t really wanna see that, to be honest.'
Antony Starr, who plays Homelander on The Boys, doesn’t think his tyrannical supe can nor should be redeemed. Inspired by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson’s source material, Prime Video’s The Boys has turned several superhero and comic book tropes on their heads.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Homelander's origin in The Boys is that of Superman had the Man of Steel been raised by a corporation rather than Jonathan and Martha Kent. Having endured the life of a lab rat since birth, Homelander craves the public’s admiration while simultaneously believing himself to be superior to everyone around him. With almost unlimited power, he really can do “whatever the f—k he wants” as he seems to revel in murder and mayhem behind closed doors.
“I think Homelander’s happy ending would be him annihilating everyone in the world and sitting there in a bloody wasteland on his own, with no one to mess with him. I don’t think there’s a redemption story for Homelander. I wouldn’t really wanna see that, to be honest. I don’t think there’s any intention of doing that either. As for his demise, I don’t know. Every time I try to pick out what might happen in the future, I’m wrong, so I’ve given up speculating.
Starr’s idea that Homelander would be happy “annihilating everyone in the world” has been explored in The Boys, albeit as a last result. Queen Maeve blackmails Homelander in season 2 with that incriminating plane crash video. Homelander informs her that he will “destroy everything and everyone” if she releases it, to which she replies, “As long as no one ever loves you again.
In The Boys season 3’s “Herogasm” episode, Homelander talks to himself in a scene reminiscent of Norman Osborn’s exchanges with the Green Goblin in Spider-Man. The conversation reveals the duality of Homelander as an insecure child/victim of Vought versus a psychopath who equates his humanity to cancer. From the rape of Becca Butcher to countless murders , this is not to say Homelander can, or even deserves to be redeemed.
