Jessie T. Usher knows what you think of A-Train, his character on Prime Video's hit series "The Boys." And he agrees: For someone so fast on his feet, A-Train is a little slow on the uptake:"I've been waiting for his brain to catch up to his legs … this whole time."
A-Train is the only visibly Black member of the Seven, a superpowered group whose mantra seems to be "want, take, have." The conglomerate for which the group works has used him and his likeness to shill products to the Black community: beer, sugary cereal, energy drinks. You get the picture.
The confused A-Train just, ahem, runs along. And in one bloody moment, he speeds right through a woman and into the first of many jaw-dropping scenes in "The Boys." The woman's boyfriend, Hughie (Jack Quaid), is left holding nothing but her hands. Enter William Butcher (Karl Urban), who was already trying to rid the world of supers because of his own loss, and a series is kicked off.
