When asked about Jeffrey Dean Morgan’s role in The Boys Season 4, Erin Moriarty, star of The Boys, admitted that she was terrified about spoiler snipers.
Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Eric Kripke, who collaborated on Supernatural for years, will soon be back again. Although the most recent set of episodes of The Boys on Prime Video had already concluded production earlier this year, Morgan has been cast for the show’s fourth season, though the details of his involvement are being withheld. Erin Moriarty, the lead of The Boys, recently spoke with ComicBook.com and took great care to avoid giving away any information on Morgan’s involvement in the next season.
“Oh, that is something I will get hemmed on, snipers will jump out of these trees,” Moriarty tells us. “Listen, all I’ll say is that no matter what, you will run into actors in the trailer and it’s so funny, because our show has largly been split into two. I will just say, he is the loveliest human being on earth. He’s loveliest human being on Earth, and that’s it. I’m speaking about it on terms from a human perspective, but from a scene perspective, that’s good question, I want to keep my job!”
We spoke with Moriarty at the BoxLunch Holiday Gala in support of Feeding America.
“Honestly, I’ve become informed about food scarcity in America and how significant it is. I’ve become so much more informed about the details of it, for example the statistics behind it and how many people, adults verses children in America have and are experiencing food scarcity related issues and how that impacts their health later on and all these things that are so significant,” Moriarty adds.
She concludes, “And how disturbing, if I’m being honest, I do stand by the fact that sunlight is a really good disinfectant and I’ve just never been one to sit back … It’s really lovely to be amongst people who are here for such selfless, because that is something that doesn’t always happen. So all of the above.”
Gen V is the first live-action spinoff of The Boys, the hit Prime Video series based on the Dynamite Comics series. Set in Godolkin University, originally a parody of Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters from Marvel’s X-Men comics, the series is described as “Hunger Games” at a college and the cutthroat world of young supes trying their best to get on one of Vought’s super teams, including The Seven. Former Marvel’s Agent Carter showrunners Michele Fazekas and Tara Butters showrun the new series, which is executive produced by The Boys showrunner Eric Kripke and Seth Rogen & Evan Goldberg. Jaz Sinclair, Chance Perdomo, and Lizze Broadway lead the new cast of Gen V, which will also see some characters from The Boys make an appearance including Jessie T. Usher as A-Train, Colby Minifie as Vought’s Ashley Barrett, and P.J. Byrne as director Adam Bourke.
All eight episodes of The Boys: Gen V Season One are now streaming on Prime Video. The fourth season of The Boys will hit Prime Video next year.
