Ashley Barrett Helps Defeat Homelander in The Boys Season 5

BBG News

As I eagerly await the continuation of “The Boys” season 5, I can’t help but feel a thrill at the prospect of witnessing the epic showdown between Antony Starr’s Homelander and Karl Urban’s Billy Butcher. Though rumors suggest a 2026 release, the tension is palpable as we eagerly anticipate the climactic confrontation. In the meantime, I look forward to delving into season 2 of Gen V, but the real excitement lies in how Homelander’s reign of terror will meet its shocking and undoubtedly brutal demise.

In the final episode of season 4, Starr’s ruthless Super character seizes control of the U.S. Government by installing a puppet president, Steven Calhoun. This development makes Homelander, who was already power-hungry, potentially even more dangerous as most of Butcher’s group of vigilantes are now imprisoned. Consequently, there are fewer characters positioned to challenge Homelander’s thirst for power. Interestingly, the same finale hints at one of the least anticipated characters becoming instrumental in Homelander’s eventual demise.

Ashley Barrett Should Help Bring Down Homelander In The Boys Season 5

The Vought CEO Has A Long History Of Defying The Leader Of The Seven

In the final scenes of season 4, Vought CEO Ashley Barrett, in a desperate move to avoid Homelander’s purge of Vought employees, resorted to an extreme measure by injecting herself with Compound-V. The outcome of this shockingly painful transformation is uncertain, but it seems her new abilities could provide a unique platform for her to directly confront the Supes who have long ridiculed and undermined her.

In a manner that rarely aligns with altruism, Ashley’s leadership at Vought has been marked by subtle acts of resistance against Homelander’s dictates. For instance, she covered up incriminating evidence showing Queen Maeve’s survival during her encounter with Soldier Boy and assisted A-Train in hiding his own transgressions. With such divided loyalties, Homelander’s command to eliminate her might just be the decisive factor propelling her towards complete autonomy.

Colby Minifie Already Shared The Series Finale Is “Extremely Satisfying”

The Boys’ Star Has Already Teased The Show Will Offer Fans A Gratifying Conclusion

As a devoted admirer myself, I had the privilege of chatting with the exceptional Ebaster. In our conversation, Minifie shared an exciting tidbit – she’s already gone through the script for The Boys season 5 finale! Hearing this news left me buzzing with anticipation. Although she kept mum on specific plot details that showrunner Erik Kripke might have in store for her character, she did let us know that the script for the series finale was so emotionally resonant that it brought tears to her eyes while reading it.

I finished watching the final episode last night, and I must say it was incredibly fulfilling. To put it simply, it was very satisfying. Reading it brought tears to my eyes…

Instead of Minifie’s interpretation focusing solely on the overall series end, it’s not hard to imagine she might find it highly gratifying if Ashley were to gain power, thus providing her a long-overdue chance to retaliate against Homelander. Given Ashley’s repeated victimization by Homelander’s small-minded pranks and hurtful jests, the series finale could offer her a unique and particularly suitable moment for exacting revenge on her recurring tormentor.

How Ashley Could Help Defeat Homelander In The Boys Season 5

Ashley’s Compound-V Injection Still Won’t Make Her Strong Enough To Face Homelander Directly

In the final episode of The Boys season 4, Ashley’s risky move might help her evade death at the hands of The Deep and the Seven. However, not many Supes have the power required to outmatch Homelander in a single fight. Consequently, it seems doubtful that Ashley’s newly acquired powers will be strong enough for her to confront him head-on. Fortunately, Ashley might still possess substantial resources that could support Butcher’s mission to completely eliminate Homelander.

Although Homelander scoffed at the woman he demoted, reducing her role within Vought International to mere figurehead, her long association with the company has likely given her intimate knowledge of its secrets. Her personal insights into Homelander’s true character might be instrumental in turning public sentiment against him. However, it is her access to Vought’s cutting-edge research facilities and concealed resources that makes her a formidable threat in The Boys during season 5.
