The following stop freebooter for the first three sequence of The Boys season 4 , now stream on Prime Video
Summary
I liked the Charlize Theron cameo inThe Boysseason 3 , but it ’s got nothing on the surprise celeb appearances inThe Boysseason 4 . Over the retiring four seasons , I ’ve loved the job showrunner Eric Kripke and the balance of the team onThe Boyshave done in adapting Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson ’s original comedian . While the show follows the across-the-board chance event of the comic , the show has also melded themes of fame and celebrity . The issue has been uniformly impressive on a satiric level , with quite a little of room for amusement industry gags andcameos inThe Boys .
One of the funniest so far has been Charlize Theron ’s appearance in season 3 , play an in - universe of discourse fabricated interpretation of the villainous Stormfront . It ’s a solid muzzle , stab playfulness at the kind of filmmaking often seen in production like the Marvel Cinematic Universe . However , the new season has even wilder cameosinThe Boysseason 4 castthat caught me totally by surprisal , and I ca n’t block off thinking about them . Both seem to wager into overarch fictitious character arc and theme for the season , and also happen to be hilarious .
The Boys season 4 find Homelander teaming up with a Supe called Sister Sage , but what is he plan with the world ’s smart somebody ?

Will Ferrell’s The Boys Season 4 Cameo Is Even Funnier Than Charlize Theron’s From S3
Ferrell Plays An Inspirational Coach In A-Train’s “Origin” Movie
While Charlize Theron ’s cameo inThe Boysseason 3 premiere was large , it ’s nothing compared tothe unexpected and dead fulfill visual aspect from Will Ferrellin season 4 ’s second episode , " living Among the Septics . " The cameo occurs during the cinematography of an in - cosmos movie , aggrandise A - Train ’s ancestry story . The hard sanitized plot of ground of the movie face Ferrell as the tough but loveable coach who help inspire A - Train to get off the streets and become a hero . Ferrell is n’t needfully a bad guy in his chronological sequence when filming halts , but he ’s portrayed as a jerky actor .
Ferrell is portrayed as more focussed on his Oscar vista than form an authentic flick , a far - cry from the largely comedic and personable version of Ferrell that hearing have gotten to have it away over the last few decades . As a fan of Will Ferrell , it ’s far from the only meter I ’ve see him poke fun at himself and his life history . pic likeFerrell Takes the Fieldhighlight howWill Ferrell can poke play at himself , much as he does inThe Boys . However , the Prime Video series adds a secondary layer to the cameo by highlight how it impacts A - wagon train .
The Boys Season 5 Surely Can’t Beat Will Ferrell’s Cameo - Right?
The BoysUses Will Ferrell’s Cameo To Highlight A-Train’s Internal Struggle
The Boys ' Will Ferrell cameo is groovy , for more than just give me a little bit of unexpected Ferrell comedy . It ’s also arduous to imagine howThe Boyscan do a better cameo that fits into the show ’s overall arcswithout being trouble . While there have been fun celeb cameos in premature instalment of the show , The Boysseason 5 will have problem being more satirically on point than what pass in Ferrell ’s visual aspect , as it play into the show ’s commentary about famous person and corporations whitewash the truth while also play intoA - Train ’s overarching narrative - electric arc inThe Boys .
A - Train ’s abbreviated and frustrative public lecture with the thoughtless director is perfectly countered by Ferrell ’s show - boat functioning , which plays into every cliche sports moving picture trope . It ’s a sappy beat that does n’t overstay its welcome . The fact that it also play into the character arc for A - Trainand helps set up his ontogenesis for the season gives it a sensory faculty of importance that the fun but ultimately minor Theron cameo ca n’t quite match . That ’s why I suppose it ’s better than Theron ’s time of year 3 cameo — but it ’s not the well celeb cameo inThe Boysseason 4 .
As regretful as it is to see The Boys go after season 5 , the superhero series will avoid a hugely divisive decisiveness that Supernatural magnificently made .
The Boys is a gritty and subversive take on the superhero genre, focusing on a group of vigilantes who confront powerful superheroes abusing their abilities, exploring themes of corruption and moral ambiguity in a world where heroes are not always what they seem.
Wait, The Boys Season 4 Actually Tops Charlize Theron’s Cameo TWICE
Tilda Swinton As A Lovelorn Octopus Is Casting Brilliance
As good as the Will Ferrell cameo is inThe Boys , Tilda Swinton ’s surprise role as the Deep ’s octopus loveris even better . It ’s something I could never have wait , but work out so well when she ’s bring out in episode 3 , " We ’ll Keep The Red Flag Flying Here . " Swinton is an Academy Award - acquire actor who has brought some uniquely outre type to life over the yr . Her latest is the octopus , who communicates telepathically with the Deep . The Deep is doing his salutary to hide her , which makes their romance an improbable source of dramatic event and clowning for the show .
It ’s quiet a with child showcase for Swinton , who has appear in similarly uproarious comedies likeDocumentary Now!andWhat We Do in the Shadowswith an every bit committed performance . This one is easily one of my favorite , a fully committed vocal carrying into action full of yearning and cataclysm , all pore around one ofThe Boys ' most cartoonishly frightening characters . Tilda Swinton and Will Ferrell ’s cameo inThe Boysare grotesque and surpass the ( still pretty outstanding ) show by Charlize Theron in time of year 3 .
