As a longtime fan of “The Boys,” I find myself utterly amused by the recent revelation about Black Noir’s (Nathan Mitchell) real-life condition that mirrors his character’s narcoleptic tendencies. It’s not every day that a show manages to seamlessly incorporate an actor’s real life experiences into their on-screen persona, making for a delightful and entertaining twist.
Regardless of who Billy Butcher and his team have clashed with, Black Noir, whose true name is a source of amusement among “The Boys” fans since the show’s inception, is known to be one of the most intimidating Supes. This fearsome reputation primarily stems from the enigmatic powers concealed behind that mask. However, an unexpected revelation came to light in the fourth season’s second-last episode: The latest Black Noir, portrayed by Nathan Mitchell, suffers from narcolepsy.
Discovering this secret enables Butcher and his team to squeeze through with a tight exit. What adds to the amusement of this find, as shared by the cast, is that the person under the mask doesn’t deviate much from his on-screen persona in this regard.
In an interview on the “Happy Sad Confused” podcast, Antony Starr shared an anecdote about how Mitchell, the actor portraying Noir in the Prime Video series, has dozed off on set multiple times. Starr jokingly added that there’s a line asking if Noir is asleep, to which Mitchell wakes up and quips he’s narcoleptic – a condition Mitchell actually has in real life. Throughout the show’s production, some significant storylines from the comics related to Noir have been overlooked. One major Homelander twist could have drastically altered the series if explored thoroughly. Given the complexity of this plot thread, it seems Mitchell might have seized opportunities for a power nap over the years.
Nathan Mitchell has been caught sleeping on the job for years
As a gamer, I can tell you that in an interview with TV Insider, the actor who brings Noir to life on my screen shared some intriguing insights about himself. He admitted that he’s always been a champion napper, often snatching 40 winks or more whenever the opportunity arises. I found it amusing when he mentioned this during our chat, and reminisced with him about old times when we were in high school together, and he’d snooze on the couch at parties. Kudos to “The Boys” creators for recognizing this quirk of his and incorporating it into the show. It’s a detail that adds depth and authenticity to the character.
During this time before the big reveal, Noir exhibited signs of his affliction, such as dozing off during a gathering with The Seven, causing frustration for Homelander. Now that this secret has come to light, it could potentially benefit The Boys in the long run.
Mitchell is elated with the writers’ choice, as their interpretation of his Noir character draws unexpected inspiration from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. He appreciates how they identify distinct aspects of his personality and incorporate them into the roles in an engaging and innovative manner. This distinctive characteristic is something he looks forward to developing further in “The Boys.” However, it remains to be seen how significant this influence will be in the show’s progression and whether Noir can endure until the conclusion.
