While Eric Kripke has never pulled his punches against Donald Trump on The Boys, the series creator and showrunner has begun predicting the president’s outlandish moves.

After unofficial Trump surrogate Homelander (Antony Starr) chillingly claimed in the episode ‘Every One of You Sons of Bitches’ that he is God, Kripke reacted to the Prime Video show’s unsettling parallel to Trump’s Truth Social post earlier this month with an AI-generated image depicting him as Jesus Christ.

“I am really tired and weary of the world reflecting the show before we get a chance to do it,” he told Polygon. “I appreciate the marketing. I’m just like, can you just please give us a chance to put some absurd satire out there before you prove that it’s more realistic than we ever intended?”

Kripke added, “This is the episode where Homelander decides he’s going to be God and 48 hours before it, Trump releases an image of himself as God. A month ago when we were talking about marketing, I was like, Homelander saying he’s God is so out there. We have to be careful about how we even introduce the idea to the public because they’ll say he’s gone too far and here we are. It’s just really hard to out-satire this world.”

Earlier this month, Trump deleted the AI-generated image of him as Jesus following backlash from both sides of the aisle.

“I thought it was me as a doctor and had to do with Red Cross,” he claimed to press. “It’s supposed to be me as a doctor making people better. And I do make people better.”

Kripke previously noted that the current fifth and final season of The Boys was written before the 2024 presidential election, noting it’s “really f*cking unsettling” that an upcoming plot point in the upcoming seventh episode has “already happened” in real life.
