The Untold Truth Of The Boys Movie That Never Happened
Previously, prior to Amazon Prime Video’s presentation of “The Boys” with its romantic sausages, Herogasm, and exploding heads, there were plans underway for a movie adaptation featuring characters such as Billy Butcher, Hughie Campbell, and Homelander. Notable actors showed interest in the project, while Adam McKay, director of “The Other Guys” and “Anchorman,” was determined to bring it to life. However, Hollywood remained skeptical, doubting an R-rated, witty comic book film could succeed.
