There is hilarious footage of Anthony Starr’s love-hate relationship with Homelander’s flying habits available online.
The funniest video of Anthony Starr pulling off his own stunts during his Gen V appearance has been posted by the Boys team, and his response shows that he is not as different from Homelander as we initially believed.
Posting to the show’s Twitter account, the video with the description “Our favorite stuntman havin’ a blast on the set of Gen V” saw a rather irate Starr, clad in his typical red, white, and blue attire, being hoisted up into the air by wires. In this crucial scenario, Homelander makes his way to Godolkin University after Ashley phones to ask for assistance in taking down renegade super heroes. But unlike his superhero persona, the actor doesn’t appear to relish being airborne.
“F*ck off. F*ck off,” he exclaims, laughing loudly. “Ahhhhh, f*ck my life. F*ck this. F*ck off. F*cking c*nts. Holy sh*t. Okay, please that’s good.” Comments by an off-screen crew member confirm that Starr usually films Homelander touching down rather than flying. You can watch the full video below.

Despite the fact that Starr, who was first introduced as Homelander in the first season of Amazon’s The Boys, makes a surprise cameo in the Gen V finale, as of now, it is unclear whether he will return for season 2 of the sister show. Similarly, show creators are keeping details about The Boys season 4 under wraps.
New teaser posters for The Boys season 4 also suggests that Homelander will continue to play a central role in the series, alongside his opponent Billy Butcher. We for one are overjoyed to see Starr return to the series, but if that means more stunts, he may not be as excited about it.
Gen V season 1 and The Boys season 1-3 are available to stream on Prime Video right now.
