The Boys turn a scarring section of human bodies into a diabolical mess of goopy disinfectant.
Starlight is the new co-captain?! | The Boys (Antony Starr, Erin Moriarty, Giancarlo Esposito)
When The Boys premiered in 2019, the Amazon original delivered an immediate punch to audiences with its shocking ending to episode 1. The road to the finale has since been lined with bloody fights, gruesome deaths and disturbing sex scenes.
But after sitting through four diabolical seasons of the twisted superhero franchise, one thing is becoming pretty clear to fans of The Boys, and that is that shock value has taken precedence over quality storytelling in the writers' room. However, the fact is not necessarily a bad thing, especially in the current age of sensitized media and the ubiquitous cancel culture (more on that later).
If ever an actor was given the right to be horrified by their surroundings on set, it should be the cast of The Boys. The amount of exposure to unhealthy concepts and graphic scenery the crew has been subjected to should be enough to scar a person for a lifetime. But Erin Moriarty says otherwise, especially after a hilarious mishap on the set of the infamous Season 3 episode, Herogasm.
