The character Homelander from the comic series and TV show “The Boys” has been announced as a guest character in Mortal Kombat 1, and a recent video showcasing his presence in the game has been released by Ed Boon, the creator and director of the Mortal Kombat series. Boon promised that new content would be added to the game alongside this character soon.
The release of new content for Mortal Kombat 1 has been relatively slow, with only three new fighters, including Peacemaker, Omni-Man, and Ermac, added to the game so far. Therefore, Boon has pledged that with the release of the Homelander character update, new content such as costumes, a new online competitive mode, and even new moves will be introduced to the game.

In the short video released, we only got a glimpse of Homelander’s character design. Information about his moves and fighting style has not been disclosed yet, but it’s evident that meticulous attention to detail has been put into his design.
First Look at Homelander’s Design in Mortal Kombat 1:
In the released video, Liu Kang confronts Homelander, but before Homelander can say anything, the video ends. This has sparked curiosity among fans about who might voice this character.
The voice actors for Peacemaker and Omni-Man in the TV series, John Cena and J.K. Simmons, respectively, were the voices of those characters in the game. However, this is not the case for Homelander. Antony Starr, who portrays Homelander in “The Boys,” confirmed that he will not be voicing the character. He expressed his desire to voice the character in the game, but the game studio did not approach him.
The most likely reason we haven’t heard any dialogue from Homelander is that the recording of his lines may not have been completed yet. The recording process may have taken longer for various reasons, and the dialogue may not have been added to the game yet.
On the other hand, Boon may be trying to prevent speculation and rumors from spreading. Many fans are eager to know who will voice Homelander and will undoubtedly have their own theories. This could be Boon’s way of avoiding any potential spoilers regarding the voice actor for Homelander.
There is also a slim possibility that Antony Starr may have been added to the game later on, and his dialogue for the character has been recorded. Since it has been almost a year since the announcement of Homelander’s addition to Mortal Kombat 1, it’s possible that NetherRealm Studios has reached out to him during this time. What are your thoughts? Would you like Antony Starr to voice Homelander in Mortal Kombat 1?
