The Boys star Karen Fukuhara was “so sad” season 2 mouse scene “didn’t make the cut”

The Boys star Karen Fukuhara has revealed an intriguing season two moment that “didn’t make the cut”.

The actress plays Kimiko on the Amazon Prime Video series, which returns to screens for its second season this week.

Speaking to Digital Spy, Karen explained how a scene that tied into Kimiko’s past involving “a street mouse” was filmed but ultimately not used.

She admitted that she was “sad it didn’t make the cut”, jokingly making the case for the mouse to come back in season three.

“We’ve talked about so many of our shocking moments, especially the whale and the boat scene, but I just remembered, this was cut… I had a scene with a mouse, so working with a real live animal and it being a mouse, that was pretty shocking to me,” Karen said.

“I’m so sad it didn’t make the cut, because it was such an interesting experience for me!”

She added: “The scene had something to do with my past, so when we were in The Boys’ hideout, a mouse just appears. It’s a street mouse. Kimiko finds a connection there.

“It outshined me! That’s why it didn’t make the cut in season two, but it will appear in season three for sure [laughs]!”

The Boys season one is available to stream on Amazon Prime Video now, with season two beginning on September 4.
