Recently released key art for Amazon's The Boys shows Antony Starr's Homelander acting quite non-heroic while on top of a city building.
In the image, which was shared via The Boys' official Twitter page, Homelander can be seen urinating off the side of a tall building, seemingly not caring if there is anyone below. A caption provided with the image reads, "Pissing on something doesn't make it yours, buddy."
Known for his sadistic tendencies, Starr's Homelander is the leader of Vought International's top superhero team called "The Seven." The character is a prime target of Karl Urban's Billy Butcher and his team known as the Boys, who work together in an effort to bring down superheroes.
Developed by Supernatural's Eric Kripke, Amazon's The Boys is based on a comic series of the same name by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson. The series is one of Amazon's most popular television programs and received a second season renewal before the Season 1 premiere.
Not much has been revealed about the storyline for Season 2 of The Boys, though Starr recently shared that Homelander will go through an "internal journey" and promised "it gets really fucking weird." Meanwhile, Season 1 ended with a reveal that Homelander has a son and the recently released trailer for Season 2 teased some of the interactions they will share.
The official synopsis for Season 2 of The Boys can be found below:
The even more intense, more insane season two finds The Boys on the run from the law, hunted by the Supes, and desperately trying to regroup and fight back against Vought. In hiding, Hughie (Jack Quaid), Mother’s Milk (Laz Alonso), Frenchie (Tomer Capon) and Kimiko (Karen Fukuhara) try to adjust to a new normal, with Butcher (Karl Urban) nowhere to be found. Meanwhile, Starlight (Erin Moriarty) must navigate her place in The Seven as Homelander (Antony Starr) sets his sights on taking complete control. His power is threatened with the addition of Stormfront (Aya Cash), a social-media-savvy new Supe, who has an agenda of her own. On top of that, the Supervillain threat takes center stage and makes waves as Vought seeks to capitalize on the nation’s paranoia.
