Antony Starr Says He’s Not Voicing Homelander for ‘Mortal Kombat 1′
With Homelander set to arrive Mortal Kombat 1 this Spring on the heels of the arrival of guest fighter Omni-Man last week, fans have been wondering if actor Antony Starr will be voicing The Boys‘ villain. Seeing as J. K. Simmons reprised his role as Omni-Man, it would only make sense, right? Unfortunately, it doesn’t appear that way.
X user Uppercut Editions, LLC. noted that per Starr’s Instagram, the actor was asked if he was lending his voice for Homelander for Mortal Kombat 1, to which Starr said “nope”.
Needless to say, this is disappointing for fans hoping to hear Starr spit out some cold one-liners against Simmons, Jean-Claude Van Damme, and the rest of the Mortal Kombat 1 roster. What’s even more frustrating is that Starr lent his voice to Homelander when he made his appearance in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 earlier this year.
Starr didn’t elaborate on why he won’t be voicing Homelander for the Kombat Pack, so we’re all left to speculate on the reasoning behind his omission. It’s also not known who will be voicing Homelander in place of Starr.
Of course, it could all be one big ruse (this is Ed Boon, after all), but unlike Simmons and Omni-Man, NetherRealm hasn’t made it a point to mention of Starr’s involvement with Homelander as of yet. We’ll just have to wait and see.
Mortal Kombat 1 is out now for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store.

Upcoming “Unholy Alliance” Update for ‘Cult of the Lamb’ Adds Local Co-op and More [Teaser]
Cult of the Lamb players will be getting more free goodies later this summer with the Unholy Alliance update. Coming August 12, the update introduces a brand new playable character in the Goat, which coincides with the game allowing local co-op.
With the Unholy Alliance update, the entire Cult of the Lamb campaign will be playable in local co-op. Players will also be able to enjoy special 2-player versions of existing mini-games, such as Fishing and Knucklebones, as well as choose from a selection of weapons, tarot cards, curses, and corrupted relics as your cooperative crusades progress.
The Lamb and Goat can also swap weapons, deal extra damage when fighting back to back, and even deliver a critical hit when their attacks are in sync. Good news for those who prefer to stay alone in their corner: they will be able to benefit from various new powers.
In addition to the addition of cooperative play, the Unholy Alliance expansion adds several tarot cards, relics, buildings, fleeces, character traits and quests, as well as the addition of new secrets to discover.
More information on the update will be released as the launch date creeps closer. Cult of The Lamb is available now on PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, and the Nintendo Switch.
