As a seasoned movie critic with decades of experience under my belt, I must say that the potential crossover between Lynda Carter’s iconic Wonder Woman and Eric Kripke’s groundbreaking The Boys is nothing short of electrifying! With both parties deeply rooted in the political arena, it’s no wonder they’re drawing inspiration from the 2024 Presidential Election.
In the fictional worlds created by Lynda Carter for Wonder Woman and Eric Kripke with The Boys, a potential collision might be imminent, orchestrated by Kamala Harris. The 2024 Presidential Election has sparked an increased interest of celebrities, as pop culture influences from all angles become interwoven on both political sides. Having secured her party’s nomination at the Democratic National Convention, Harris now aims to win the presidency against Donald Trump in November.
Two familiar names in Hollywood, Carter and Kripke, would like to see Harris and her running mate, Tim Walz, punch their ticket to the White House. Carter has been actively engaged in a campaign for the president and vice presidential hopefuls called “Geeks and Nerds for Harris Walz.” This prompted Carter to put a call to action on social media, hoping to draw in more support for her cause, something that caught the eye of Kripke, inspiring a monumental crossover idea. To kick off the interaction, Carter took to X, writing:
“I’m sounding the call for a crucial gathering… It’s time to protect our interests. Friends from Harris Walz’s Geek and Nerd community, we need you most. We’re searching for our top-tier champions. Are you ready to join forces?”
Kripke Pitches A Crossover Across Several Shows
After Carter called on social media for support of her campaign to elect Harris and Walz, Kripke came forward with an idea that blends generations and has strong fanbase appeal. In his tweet, he referenced being the creator of both Supernatural and The Boys, and then proposed a hypothetical team-up involving characters from those shows and Wonder Woman.
Although it’s unlikely that the showrunner will arrange a crossover between “The Boys,” “Supernatural,” and other related shows anytime soon, the potential for such a crossover would be momentous. The prospect of Wonder Woman clashing with Homelander is already mouthwatering, but what makes this even more intriguing is that “The Boys” and “Supernatural” share not only a showrunner but also actors like Jensen Ackles, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, and now rumors suggest Jared Padalecki may join “The Boys” for its final season.
As reported by Deadline, one of Kripke’s main characters in the series The Boys, Homelander, bears some resemblance to Donald Trump, who is rumored to run against Kamala Harris in 2024. On the other side of the political spectrum, Lynda Carter’s iconic character, Wonder Woman, stands as a stark contrast. A potential confrontation between these two strong characters could mirror the divisive sentiments seen in the election between Trump and Harris.
As a die-hard movie buff, I can’t help but be captivated by Kripke’s playful teasing on social media about the potential crossover. Given the massive success of ‘The Boys’ with its latest seasons, such a colossal collaboration could potentially shatter ratings in an entirely new realm. Carter seems to share my excitement, responding to the tweet with “Let’s do it, The Boys!”
