An epic war is on the cards for our characters, resulting in deadly chickens, flying sheep and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/sci-fi\/the-boys-cast-prime-video\/\">Homelander (Anthony Starr)<\/a> taking to the ice for a pretty nifty routine.<\/p>\n<p>If you think it sounds slightly wild, that\u2019s because it is. Season 4 sees the world on the brink and Billy Butcher (Karl Urban) will stop at nothing to to find a way to stop the supes. But with the supes as power hungry as ever, it\u2019s not exactly the most plain-sailing of missions.<\/p>\n<div class=\"image-handler__container image-handler__container--aspect\"
