LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: There's a lot of love for 'The Boys' worldwide, with fans deeply connected to its cast and characters. Recently, rumors have surfaced online suggesting that Frenchie, played by Tomer Capone, might be recast for 'The Boys' Season 5.

A viral TikTok video claims this, sparking concerns among fans. Frenchie, also known as Serge, has been a key part of the series since 'The Boys' Season 1. His role expanded in Season 4 after his character was revealed to be bisexual and involved in a romance with Colin.

Fans are now uncertain about the future of Frenchie in the show.

A TikTok video from @invader.zema has sparked rumors that Tomer Capone might be replaced in 'The Boys' because of his service in Israel's Defense Forces (IDF).

The clip has gained over 1.3 million views, fueling speculation. However, the video lacks credible sources or official announcements to support its claims.

Towards the end, the video promotes a fundraiser, suggesting it may be clickbait. As of now, these rumors should be approached with caution due to the lack of reliable information.

Is Tomer Capone really part of Israel's Defense Forces (IDF)?

Some parts of the TikTok video are based on true facts. Tomer Capone, who is from Israel, served in the IDF, as mentioned on his IMDb page. In Israel, it's normal for citizens to do military service.

The makers of 'The Boys' are probably aware of Capone's military background since the show began 5 years ago, and it hasn't been a problem before.

Recently, there's been tension in Israel, which has caused people to wonder if Capone might be replaced in 'The Boys' Season 5. But there haven't been any official announcements about this yet.
