Antony Starr, renowned for his portrayal of the villainous Homelander in the hit series "The Boys," has confirmed that he will not be voicing the character in the upcoming Mortal Kombat 1. Discover how he responded and the fans' reactions to this news.
In a direct response on his Instagram account, Antony Starr answered a fan's inquiry about voicing Homelander in Mortal Kombat 1 with a simple "nope."
The announcement of Homelander as a DLC character for Mortal Kombat 1 sparked excitement among fans, largely due to Starr's acclaimed performance in "The Boys." His portrayal has been a significant factor in the series' success, which even led to the creation of a spin-off, "GenV," featuring a cameo by Homelander.
On November 12, 2023, Starr shared behind-the-scenes content from "The Boys" on Instagram, prompting a fan to ask about his involvement with Mortal Kombat 1. His straightforward "nope" left many fans feeling disappointed, reflecting their high regard for his work as the villain.
This decision marks a departure from the Mortal Kombat series' tradition of featuring original voice actors, as seen with J.K. Simmons reprising his role as Omni-Man from the "Invincible" series in the game.
Some fans speculate that Starr might be misleading them in true Homelander fashion, or that he is bound by non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) that prevent him from discussing his involvement. Others believe he might have simply grown tired of the persistent inquiries and provided a definitive answer to quell them.
Additionally, fans note that Starr has previously voiced Homelander in a Call of Duty collaboration, suggesting that his experience in video game voice acting could still lead to his participation in Mortal Kombat 1.
As anticipation builds, only time will reveal whether Starr's statement holds true. Fans eagerly await further updates on Homelander's role in Mortal Kombat 1.
