Erin Moriarty’s Jaw-Dropping Fight with Herself in ‘The Boys’ Season 4—How She Pulled Off the Impossible!

As you are all aware, The Boys is one of the most viewed and well-liked television shows in the superhero genre. This dark take on the superhero genre, which is based on the same-titled comic book series, is quite popular on Amazon Prime and continues to push the limits of what can be presented on television in a variety of ways.

The fifth and final season of the show is presently being developed by the showrunners following four successful seasons and a spin-off series. We can always go back to the spectacular Season 4 finale, which had some of the greatest moments in the show’s history, as we wait for additional details on that front.

In light of this, the series’ performers talked to Variety about their experiences in Season 4 and what to expect from them in the upcoming fifth and final season. Here are the comments made by Erin Moriarty, one of the actors who gave us some information.

You know that Starlight had a very complex storyline in Season 4, as the real superheroine was replaced with a clone, an evil clone allied with Homelander, who caused a lot of confusion in the series, especially with Hughie. But, before the season ended, the real Starlight had the opportunity to face her clone in an epic clash.

In her Variety talk, Erin Moriarty revealed to the fans how it was fighting herself in the fourth season and how it felt playing two characters:

What was it like playing Shifter Annie in the final episodes of the season, and fighting yourself as Starlight Annie?

ERIN MORIARTY: That was real weird, because I have to approach it as a different character entirely. I had to basically try and deprogram my own physical mannerisms. Because I do think that there is a physicality that is innate to all of us that comes through in our characters. And I have to step onto the same set with the same crew and the same people I’ve seen everyday for years, and not be that character. So not only is the script and the character different, but I’m doing it amongst the same exact environment, and that immediately triggers me to be in Annie mode.

So the physical mannerisms are the most important to me, because I can change my voice and I can change everything about the way I speak — even the resonance of my voice — but mannerisms are very hard to deprogram. I have the weirdest videos on my phone. I needed to look at myself in the role in ways that I didn’t ultimately depict as — like, real weird.

I’m talking, like, trying to be a primate weird. I filmed myself going about my house for hours at a time, and put it in fast-forward mode to try and pick up on my own mannerisms. And it was very humbling, because you don’t realize what you do regularly.

The fight with myself was a matter of going about it with John Koyama, our amazing stunt coordinator, and it was the most challenging experience I’ve ever had. Because I am just neurotic, and a Type A in recovery, it was the most satisfying experience I’ve ever had. The harder you work, the harder it will come out, and you’ll — no matter what — be baseline satisfied by it. But John Koyama made sure I was mega-satisfied.

We are eager for the climactic season after witnessing what Kripke and his colleagues have so far produced in an intriguing plot.
