Antony Starr allegations surface for abusive behavior on set of ‘The Boys’
Recent allegations against Antony Starr, known for his role as Homelander in "The Boys," have shocked fans and blurred the lines between his on-screen character and real life. Rumors originating from the Instagram account VoughtHQ suggest Starr's off-screen behavior may resemble his character's malevolence.
According to VoughtHQ, now operating from a backup account, a former unnamed actor from "The Boys" claimed Starr "relentlessly" bullied co-star Dominique McElligott (Queen Maeve) and acted inappropriately towards female staff members. A source from the costume department reportedly corroborated these bullying claims, stating that Starr's actions led one individual to leave the industry.
The allegations also reference Starr's well-documented incident in Alicante, Spain, where he was arrested for assaulting a 21-year-old chef, Bathuel Araujo. The altercation, which occurred in a bar, ended with Starr hitting Araujo with a glass. Starr received a 12-month suspended sentence and a fine for the assault.

The response to these allegations has been divided. Some online commentators believe the rumors, while others defend Starr, suggesting the leaker has a vendetta against the actor and the show. One tweet stated, "So Antony Starr bullied Dominique McElligott on the set of 'The Boys' and she left the industry due to this." Conversely, another tweet argued, "Vought HQ hates the cast and the show, which is why she’s leaking it."
