He recalled, "I walk into the scene. Soldier Boy. And I turn the corner and I go, ‘Oh my god.’ That wasn’t my line, And I was supposed to stay there. But I hadn’t seen what was going on. We’d blocked it out. We rehearsed it. Things changed when the camera was rolling, and I hadn’t seen it. And I walked in and it was, ‘Dear God,’ and I just walked back out. And they were like, ‘Uh, cut?’ And I was like, ‘I’m sorry. I wasn’t prepared for that. And I don’t think anybody else will be either.'"ALSO READ: The Boys Actor Antony Starr Bids Emotional Goodbye To Homelander Ahead Of Show's Finale: We Created Monster, Will Miss Him
