Charisma Carpenter wants to join The Boys, and she’s not being subtle about it.
The actress — Cordelia Chase across seven years of Buffy and Angel — posed with cast members from the Prime Video series at a recent event, including Karen Fukuhara (Kimiko) and Jessie T. Usher (A-Train), and tweeted: “I feel like I fit in. Is it just me?! Freaking love this show.”
Season 4 of The Boys is in production and bringing in several new faces, including Jeffrey Dean Morgan. Whether Carpenter’s very public campaign results in anything is an open question, but the fit isn’t hard to imagine. Cordelia Chase started as an antagonist and grew into one of the most compelling heroes in the Buffyverse — a character who could be trusted to do the right thing while never losing her edge. The Boys features almost no one who is exactly what they seem at first glance.
The tweet is out there. The casting directors at Prime Video have the internet. We’ll see.
