Chace Crawford reveals why his bulge was edited out of The Boys

Chace Crawford has revealed his character in the Amazon Prime series The Boys was supposed to have a comically large penis.

But the streaming giant became squeamish over the idea and The Deep’s package was edited out of the show in post-production.

Fans learned The Deep was genetically blessed in 2019 when an official Amazon calendar included an unairbrushed photo of his bulge.

Change of plan! Chace Crawford has revealed his character in the Amazon Prime series The Boys was supposed to have a comically large penis – but the streaming giant became squeamish over the idea and The Deep’s package was edited out in post-production

Speaking to Daily Mail Australia this week, Chace confirmed the calendar was no mistake and that his character was always supposed to be very well-endowed.

He explained that Amazon bosses freaked out the moment they heard he was wearing a prosthetic penis under his superhero costume.

‘[Showrunner Eric] Kripke was like, “We get no notes from Amazon, but the first one we got was that can’t f**king happen, we’ve got to take that out,”‘ he said.

Wowzers! Fans learned The Deep was genetically blessed in 2019 when an official Amazon calendar included an unairbrushed photo of his bulge 

‘And we had to edit it out.’

Chace said producers had to use CGI effects to shrink his character’s penis in scenes that had already been filmed.

The Gossip Girl actor, who is in Sydney for the first time in more than a decade, also revealed he’d been enjoying the local tourist hotspots.
