A surprising cameo appearance from Seth Rogen in the show's first season threw some viewers off, but it makes sense given the fact that he and frequent collaborator Evan Goldberg are both producers on the show.

Though Goldberg is nowhere to be seen and Rogen's role is limited to that of a fictionalised version of himself, the fast-talking public relations duo Seth and Evan are based on the pair.

Outside of Seth and Evan, there are plenty of other celebrity references in the show. In the season two premiere, Homelander mentions that the upcoming Dawn of the Seven film has gone through a re-write courtesy of Joss Whedon, who of course took over writing/directing duties from Zack Snyder's Justice League.

Another bizarre celebrity name-drop is aimed at Han Solo actor Alden Ehrenreich, who Hughie believes to be PR-dating Starlight at the start of season two.
