After a bit of a hiatus save for a brief Season Three appearance, Simon Pegg will soon return to the land of The Boys. In the newest batch of episodes, the Mission: Impossible alumnus will have a substantial role as Hugh Campbell, the father of Jack Quaid’s Hughie. According to Pegg, The Boys Season Four is nothing short of “sick as f-ck.”
“You know how crazy The Boys is! It’s going to get crazier. I had so much fun on that show and it was great to go back and play Hugh Sr.,” Pegg told Collider on the red carpet for Mission: Impossible โ Dead Reckoning Part One. “I love Jack [Quaid] and it was great to work with Rose DeWitt, who plays Hughie’s mom, who’s also come back. It’s going to be great and you’re going to love it. I’m in about four episodes and it was a joy to be back. It’s a great crew and that show is sick as f-ck.”
