The spoilers for season 3 of The Boys follow.
The long-awaited third season of the Boys has just landed on Amazon Prime and is already pulling out the big guns.
Mad Max: Fury Road actress Charlize Theron makes a cameo in the first episode of the season, playing Aya Cash’s Stormfront in a movie they’re doing in the universe called Dawn of the Seven.
Digital Spy spoke with showrunner Eric Kripke to find out how they made this List A cameo. It turns out Theron had no idea how big the cameo would be.
“He really did it as a favor to Seth Rogen because they just did Long Shot together,” Kripke said. “I feel really bad. I think she was supposed to be like, ‘Oh, you need me to come in two hours and do something.'”

Kripke revealed that they had built an elaborate set for the scene and had to completely redo the overcoat because Theron is taller than Cash.
“She said yes. And right away we had to put her on for the super dress, and design the super dress around her, because she’s a lot taller than Aya Cash. So we had to redo the super dress. “, he said.
“We shot her part in Los Angeles. Her part of this scene is shot in Los Angeles. But then we had to take her for real, I think she thought she’d stand in front of a green screen and say a couple of lines and it’s done. And we had built this whole set. “
“I think he showed up that day and said, ‘Oh my God, this is going to be my whole day,'” he admitted.
