Plots(1)

The Boys is an irreverent take on what happens when superheroes - as popular as celebrities, as influential as politicians and as revered as gods - abuse their superpowers rather than use them for good. It's the powerless against the superpowerful as The Boys embark on a heroic quest to expose the truth about "The Seven" and their formidable Vought backing. (Sony Pictures Home Entertainment)
