Which actor plays A-Train in The Boys?

Jessie T. Usher plays A-Train in The Boys.

Usher portrays A-Train, whose civilian name is Reggie Franklin, in the live-action television adaptation. The character is one of the Seven, Vought International’s heavily marketed superhero team, and is defined by his superhuman speed and competitive obsession with remaining the fastest speedster.

A-Train’s role is more complicated than a straightforward celebrity hero. His need to protect his status leads to reckless decisions, including abusing Compound V and causing the death of Robin Ward in the series premiere. Those actions help draw Hughie Campbell into the conflict with Vought and the Seven.

Usher also reprises the role in the spin-off Gen V. The other listed actors play different characters: Nathan Mitchell is Black Noir, Laz Alonso is M.M., and Chace Crawford is the Deep. They are all associated with The Boys, but none plays A-Train.
