@@JohnWall-lj1mx He’s not a sellout for doing his profession. An actor getting paid to act in a commercial. It’d be selling out if he had some big stance on micro transactions or game companies releasing false content of games and then charging for it.

Him doing it in character of a role he made famous doesn’t change anything, it honestly has zero to do with “selling out” 😂 Gamers get so mad about the most pointless stuff. He doesn’t play video games, he’s obviously doing the ad in character as Homelander. In other words, he knew this was going to make so many people legitimately angry, all while getting a huge paycheck and possibly being used for season five of the next season of The Boys. I’m sure they used the set for this commercial to contribute something for the show or at least for him personally in some way. In other words, he got paid to act. He’s an actor. He doesn’t play video games. But gamers are acting like he’s committed some crazy atrocity to society lmao.
@@thebadaidsHe's supporting a scam. It's on the lowet end of things compared to other products, but its still a scam. And if he isn't aware as an actor that he is supporting a scam, his agent is terrible. But since he did much worse in Spain, he probably knows what he's doing and just doesn't care like most actors.
If an actor appears to be born for a role, there is a decent chance that they just are that character. Another great example is Chevy Chase as Pierce Hawthorne. Hilarious on TV, until you realize they aren’t acting.
Honestly that's my legitimate guess. Like my not even joking guess. They got a huge name and those companies are ROLLING in money. Like between all their mobile clickers and the whales that play them, they make BILLIONS. People have no idea how far it goes.
