Simon Pegg has been a fan of the Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson comic The Boys, and it was a dream come true when series creator Eric Kripke gave him a call to play Hugh Campbell Sr on the Prime Video series.
The season four, June 27th episode, 'Beware the Jabberwock, My Son,' provided a gut-wrenching moment in the Campbell family between Hugh Sr, his ex-wife Daphne , and their son Hugh 'Hughie' Campbell Jr . The Shaun of the Dead star took to Instagram to chronicle his journey, breaking down how the comic design of Hughie on him along with pictures of him in the 2004 Edgar Wright film, comic panels of Hughie, photos with Kripke and Quaid, and set photos of the episode.
His son makes the difficult decision to euthanize him. Pegg wrote the following to go with the montage, 'In 2006, I found myself in the pages of a new comic book, called 'The Boys,' a game-changing takedown of the superhero genre by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson. Darick based his design for the character of Wee Hughie on me. In 2018, Eric Kripke, the mastermind behind the hugely popular 'Supernatural,' adapted the comic for TV.
