The Boys
Summary
The BoysactorAntony Starr reveals the strange scene he was a part ofin season 4 while speaking atSan Diego Comic - Con . As Homelander , Starr has consistently been featured in many of the show ’s most unconscionable , in writing , and boundary - pushing moments . Season 4 continued this style as Homelander interacted with and was challenge by the two unexampled additions to the Seven , Sister Sage ( Susan Heyward ) and Firecracker ( Valorie Curry ) .
I ’ve done a lot of strange things in my career , but one of the stranger thing was when I opened it and this human being in front of me [ laughs ] , we get on great , so everything I ’m going to say is in setting , was when you have titty Milk River ejecting . That was the weirdest thing because it was n’t so much , I mean we ’ve done unearthly s * * * on the show , confessedly , everyone ’s done uncanny s * * * . But it was the psychology behind it , and it turn into this love scene .
Why The Psychology Behind Homelander’s Weirdest Season 4 Scene Is Important
It Explains How Homelander’s Mind Works.
In season 1 , Madelyn Stillwell ( Elisabeth Shue ) used breast milk to manipulate Homelander and make him accordant in a direction that no one else could .
While the scene initially makes an impact throughThe Boys ' knack for shock note value , it is important because it demonstrates thatHomelander can still be psychologically control by his basest desire . In season 1 , Madelyn Stillwell ( Elisabeth Shue ) used breast Milk River to control Homelander and make him agreeable in a way that no one else could . She weaponized Homelander ’s attachment way out and the sexual yearning twine with them to command him , and this made him value her even more .
The Boys time of year 4 finish put up the stakes importantly for the show ’s heroes , and its ending and post - credits picture perfectly set up season 5 .
Since Homelander later reveal that Madelyn hid the existence of his boy , Ryan , from him , and Homelander subsequently kill her , no one has been able-bodied to fill the void Madelyn leave behind or been able to hold any real sway over him since . Firecracker unexpectedly filled that office at the moment when she squirt breast milk , which suddenlymade Homelander see note value in heras he start listening to what she had to say . Her influence even got him to temporarily contain listening to Sage , despite the promises they had made to each other .
Despite the enormous power Homelander wields through his superpower , his control of Vought , and now politically through the puppet leader of President Calhoun , he is in the end a stunted nestling in the body of an adult man . If Firecracker was able to get through to Homelander and even change his perspective in the manner that she did , shoot down Homelander inThe Boysseason 5may get along down to finding a dissimilar way to manipulate and defeat him through his base needs . It will be challenging to see how his relationship with Firecracker change after Sage redeem on her promise to Homelander .
