Claudia Doumit chats with THR at San Diego Comic-Con and shares what she hopes for in the final season of Prime Video's 'The Boys.' Plus, she talks about the social commentary in the show that mirror real life.
00:00When you first read the script for the final episode of season four, what was your reaction?
00:04Holy fuck. Can I say that? Holy fuck. Holy fuck.
00:09And about time. Because I thought she was going to die sooner than she did.
00:16Yeah. So I had like a pretty good run, actually.
00:19There's some fan speculation that maybe she's not dead. Can you confirm or deny?
00:24That's so hopeful and I love it.
00:26I haven't heard anything. I'm going to say she's cut in half and she's pretty dead.
00:33Yeah. Pretty dead.
00:35What do you think the future holds, though, for her man and her father figure?
00:40Ooh. I would hope that Stan Edgar takes Zoe under his wing because she's at Red River now,
00:47which is just the opposite of where Newman wanted her to end up.
00:51So I would hope he would step in and save her. But it's a dark show, guys, so we don't know.
00:57Oh, Samir. Yeah. What's going to happen with Samir? I hope he doesn't lose any more limbs.
01:01That's just like just first and foremost. I really want him to keep all of his limbs.
01:0755 million people have tuned into season four. What goes through your mind when you hear that number?
01:12Again, holy fuck.
01:13It's surreal, but it's also amazing because you just see how much of a reach the show has and that's, I mean, you want that for any project that you work on.
01:26You want, you know, you want an audience to like it and to engage with it.
01:31And I think it's a great show and it's got fantastic writers and just a brilliant creative in Eric Kripke.
01:38So I, you know, even if I wasn't on the show, I'd say I think it deserves it.
01:45It's such a great show.
01:47Sometimes it feels like we're currently living in an episode of The Boys.
01:51What's your take on the way that the show somehow seems to predict real life events?
01:54It's very surreal.
01:57I would say that the show has always had social, has always made social commentary and I think it really holds a mirror up to the world that we're currently living in.
02:11I think it just does a really good job at that.
02:13Um, uh, I would say it's purely coincidental, the things that have unfolded, but, um, uh, I don't know.
02:22The show has always kind of skewed that way and it just so happens that it, it kind of just mirrors reality.
02:31Yeah.
02:32You guys got to announce the spinoff Vought Rising here today.
02:36What are you excited to see in that show?
02:38Any single frame of that show.
02:40I didn't know about it.
02:41So, um, I, I cannot wait to watch that show.
02:48Even if I wasn't on this show, I, that sounds amazing.
02:50Jensen and Aya is, I cannot wait to watch that duo.
02:54Like that's, it's going to be good.
02:56This is a historical spinoff.
02:58So, I mean, that means we can go back in time for possible spinoffs.
03:01What's your pitch for a Victoria Newman spinoff?
03:04Maybe her college age, her coming up in politics.
03:07What do you think?
03:08Oh, wow.
03:09Um, younger.
03:10I want to see her like in her youth, like Red River days when she's at the orphanage and not having a great time.
03:16And just like awkward teenage years mixed with exploding heads.
