No, Laz Alonso is still playing Mother’s Milk in The Boys Season 4.
The confusion about the recast started after the trailer of The Boys Season 4 dropped on May 3, 2024. Laz Alonso, who had a great build and a prominent beard, looked quite different in the clip. This piqued fans’ curiousity, with many wondering if a different actor had been selected to play the infamous character.
However, it was soon clarified that Alonso will be playing the character of Mother’s Milk in the upcoming installment as well. In Season 4, Laz has lost a significant amount of weight. In addition, he has a soul patch instead of a full-fledged beard, which makes him look a bit different. A fitness freak, Alonso has always been vocal about his build. He’s often shared his fitness progress on his social media accounts.
