Malcolm Barrett Played the Character of Seth Reed in The Boys
Malcolm starred as a public relations officer named Seth Reed in ‘The Boys’, a show extremely popular for its dark humor and social commentary. He also appeared as Sergeant Foster in the Oscar-winning movie The Hurt Locker.
“The way [the series] reflects everything happening in the world comes from this understanding, that we found very early on in the process, which is this happens to be a television show based on a comic book,” The Boys showrunner Eric Kripke told Variety.
“It’s not like we were designing it to reflect reality, but we happen to be making a show about violent authoritarians who present as celebrities. Then suddenly, the world changed to reflect the show, not just in the States – all over the world,” Eric explained. “Suddenly, we made one of the most current television shows.”
