"Joel Kim Booster has had quite the year. From a small voice acting role in Netflix's biggest film of all time, KPop Demon Hunters ("if they do a sequel, Romance is still available to be the new villain," he says of his character); to filming ABC's highly-anticipated Scrubs reboot (the OG cast members have been "so gracious and welcoming and so amped to have this new blood"); to Season 3 of his Emmy-nominated Apple TV+ series, , Booster's been booked and busy."
"This season marks something of a departure for Booster's character, whose story lines in the past have been partly inspired by Booster's own life; now, Nicholas is having struggles wholly his own. "It's sort of a relief," Booster says. "It's not that I want to be greedy or selfish, but this isn't necessarily the platform in which I'd be able to get as deep on some of these issues. It's not my show; it's Maya's show.""
Joel Kim Booster expanded his screen work with a voice role in Netflix's KPop Demon Hunters, filming ABC's Scrubs reboot, and Season 3 of Apple TV+'s Loot. In Loot, he portrays Nicholas, a vain, witty, and fiercely loyal assistant to Molly Wells, who becomes the richest woman after divorcing a tech billionaire. Maya Rudolph integrates closely with the cast, sharing informal moments and collaboration. This season gives Nicholas storylines independent of Booster's personal experiences, enabling deeper exploration of that character's struggles. Booster previously mined his upbringing and identity for stand-up material.
