The Boys Season 4 just premiered on June 13 with a three-episode debut and a cast that is chock-full of top-caliber actors.
The Amazon Studios series on Prime Video exists in an exaggerated world filled with superheroes. However, superheroes in this universe aren't as great as they’re cracked up to be—in fact, they’re quite terrible people.
[ The Boys Season 4 Release Date Breaks a Frustrating Series Record ]
The Cast, Characters, and Actors of The Boys Season 4
Antony Starr - Homelander
The infamous Homelander leads the show, brought to life by the incredibly talented Antony Starr. Imagine an evil version of Superman, and that should give a good idea of what he can do.
Following the events of Season 3, where he brutally slaughtered a protester in front of everyone, Homelander is now forced to juggle the pressure of being on trial in front of the world while also raising his son, Ryan. It’s not an easy status quo to juggle.
Fans can see Starr in other projects such as Banshee, Cobweb, and Outrageous Fortune.

Karl Urban - Butcher
Karl Urban plays Butcher, the founder of The Boys, who, after using too much Temp V, finds his time on this Earth quickly counting down. To make matters worse, most of his former team despises him for everything he’s done up through the first three seasons.
Butcher’s biggest goal in Season 4 is finding some way to get Ryan away from Homelander before the youngster turns out like his homicidal father. This outcome could potentially signal the end of the world.
Urban has also portrayed iconic characters in Star Trek, The Lord of the Rings series, and Judge Dredd.

Jack Quaid - Hughie Campbell
Hughie Campbell, played by Jack Quaid, has come a long way since Season 1. Now, he’s a key member of The Boys, and he’s the only reason Butcher hasn’t been thrown out yet.
Season 4 will see Hughie continue to struggle with the idea that he is one of the most useful members of the team, as well as dealing with his dad's sudden medical issues.
Quaid voices Clark Kent in Max’s animated series My Adventures With Superman, and he recently played a key role in Scream V.
