Chace Crawford was spotted on the streets of Toronto looking extra buff last week in costume as The Deep, his character on the dark comedy superhero series The Boys.
Crawford has done a stellar job as one of the antagonists of the series, a self-obsessed “Supe,” as they’re known on the show, with aquatic abilities.
Crawford as also filming alongside new cast members for the series Susan Heyward and Valorie Curry, who are playing new superheroes Sister Sage and Firecracker respectively. Anthony Starr who plays one of the most prominent Supes, Homelander, also appeared with his co-stars on set.
The scene appeared to be some sort of public event for the show’s Superhero collective known as The Seven, which we begin the series thinking is just a typically good group of heroes. We soon learn in the first episodes of the show, however, that this group has a dark underbelly and that many of the widely-admired Supes are borderline psychotic.
The Boys was based on the comic book of the same name by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson, and was initially put in development as a feature film back in 2008. After several years of development hell, the project was reworked and picked up by Amazon as a TV series in 2017. It premiered to very positive reviews in 2019 and is still going strong three seasons in.
