Eric Kripke On How Samuel L. Jackson’s ‘The Boys’ Cameo Happened: “A Bucket List Moment”
SPOILERS: This post contains details about The Boys, Season 5 episode ‘The Frenchman, the Female, and the Man Called Mother’s Milk’
With two episodes of The Boys left, Eric Kripke managed to squeeze a celebrity cameo into the penultimate that had some fans doing a double take.
The creator of the Prime Video series, which premieres its finale May 19 in 4DX theaters before it’s available on streaming the next day, recently revealed how Samuel L. Jackson came to voice The Deep’s (Chace Crawford) hammerhead shark friend Xander in this week’s episode ‘The Frenchman, the Female, and the Man Called Mother’s Milk’.
“A lot of the cameos we bring into the show are because Seth Rogen or [executive producer] Evan Goldberg have a relationship with them and can make a call,” he told Polygon. “I lean on them a lot for that stuff.”
