Mortal Kombat 1 has been adding new characters slowly after its release. Recently, they introduced Ermac, and now they’ve teased the next addition: Homelander.
In a short video, we see Homelander having a chat with Lui Kang before a fight. But we only glimpse him, and there’s no actual gameplay yet. He looks quite similar to his appearance in The Boys, though older.
We’re very pleased with the reception players are giving Ermac and happy to remind everyone there is still a LOT more planned for #MortalKombat1
More: Klassic Kostumes, New Moves, Kameos, online features, secrets, and of course…. pic.twitter.com/7ZOOeSzpNE

The conversation in the video seems very one-sided, with Lui Kang throwing some insults but Homelander doesn’t reply.
This has sparked some questions about who will voice Homelander. Fans hoped it would be Anthony Starr, who plays Homelander in The Boys, but he confirmed that he won’t do it. It’s unclear why he wasn’t asked or why negotiations fell through.
We don’t know if Homelander’s lack of response in the teaser is related to the voice actor issue or not. We’ll have to wait for more gameplay to see if Anthony Starr is voicing the character or if they’ve chosen someone else. But it seems like we won’t have to wait too long to find out.
