Potential roles in the DC Universe

Starr's performance in The Boys: Homelander has proven his versatility and ability to portray complex characters. This talent makes him a strong candidate for several DCU roles. Among the most popular fan theories is the possibility of him playing Reverse-Flash. Starr’s ability to convey menace and instability would suit this character well.

Starr may play Harvey Dent, aka Two-Face. Starr could play both a captivating hero and a tragic villain with this role. Starr might lend depth and intensity to this role, like Homelander.

The appeal of Booster Gold

The role that has generated the most buzz, however, is Booster Gold. Known for his humor and charm, Booster Gold would be a departure from the sinister undertones of The Boys: Homelander.

"I’ve been on some shows that were less than popular, and deservingly so, because they were terrible. They didn’t deserve to have any support, because they were executed poorly, and I would hate to be on a show that I didn’t think was very good and I’m stuck to it for five years. So this is fantastic."
