The Boys star Tomer Capone has revealed the one scene in season 3 where he had some notes – and it is probably not what you think.
During an exclusive interview with Digital Spy, Capone opened up about whether there was ever a time he was tempted to object to the filming of a scene.
But, despite being an actor who tends to have some critique to share - "sometimes I'll raise a brow, and I'll have some thoughts" - his experience on The Boys was mostly smooth.

"Not with The Boys," he said. "I've got to be honest. With Frenchie, it's one of the most freeing experiences I've ever had portraying a character."
However, he did give in eventually and shared one particular scene he decided to have some input on.
"Episode six when Little Nina catches Frenchie – originally, Frenchie was supposed to be with, I think, dirty undies or something like that. And I was like, 'No, he should be naked'.
"To me, it looked like the right thing for the scene."
The actor also touched more on his character's notable arc during that episode, which included a particularly horrid torture scene and eventually his rescue by Kimiko.

"It's like the answer to the question: what is your worst or most weird, troubled shooting day ever?" he said of filming the torture sequence.
"Because of the amount of blood and nakedness that was on set through the entire day. It's one thing being naked all day, with you chained to a pole for 14 hours. But it's being covered with this gooey blood."
But despite all the blood, Capone remained raptured by the experience of filming for the show.
He added: "We had an amazing director that day, Nelson [Cragg]. I just remember us looking at the set. It is The Boys, but it has a feeling, in a way, of a Tarantino set or something."
The Boys season 3 streams on Amazon Prime Video, with new episodes premiering every Friday.
