Prime Video is drumming up the excitement for the new season of The Boys. After Billy Butcher’s anti-Supes crew, we now have the official poster for the latest members of The Seven: Sister Sage and Firecracker.
In one of its major deviations from the source material, The Boys introduces two Supes without comic book counterparts; hence, little is known about the newbies.
Sister Sage, a former member of the young Supe group Teenage Kix, reportedly boasts of superior intelligence but is often sidelined due to her race and gender. “We wanted a Black woman who was raised in a low socioeconomic area, so no one f---ing listens to her,” shares showrunner Eric Kripke in an interview. Her other superpowers are yet to be revealed. Breakthrough star Susan Heyward from Orange is the New Black plays Sister Sage.
On the other hand, Firecracker's superpowers are still unknown, but Kripke introduces her as crazy: “[She] represents both members of the conspiracy-minded movements and the super extreme right-wing news media… It was just interesting to bring in one of those pistol-packing 'I shot my puppies' type of characters." Valorie Curry of Veronica Mars and The Tick fame gives life to the firearm-carrying Supe.
Sister Sage and Firecracker are poised to be dangerous additions to Homelander's party, who is determined to increase his public influence despite his unstable mind. In Season 3, Vought loses two female Supes. Starlight (Erin Moriarty) joins The Boys, and Queen Maeve (Dominique McElligott) goes into hiding without any powers.
Earlier this week, the much-awaited series also shared a “Homie’s Angels” teaser poster with A-Train (Jessie Usher), Black Noir (Nathan Mitchell), and The Deep (Chace Crawford).
Following the events of Season 3, A-Train and The Deep are expected to continue getting on Vought’s good side. At the same time, viewers look forward to how different the second iteration of Black Noir will be, with the original one dying at the hands of Homelander.
The Boys Season 4 premieres on June 13 on Prime Video.
