Susan Heyward Talks Sister Sage’s Plan for Final Season of ‘The Boys’

As a die-hard fan of The Boys, I can’t help but feel my heart racing with anticipation as we gear up for the final season. With Sister Sage being one of the most intriguing characters on the show, her actions and motives have left me utterly bewildered yet excitedly curious. Susan Heyward‘s recent interview has only fueled this fire within me, as she hinted at a “Phase 2” for Sage that could potentially be a game-changer.


It’s well-known that among superhero television shows, “The Boys” stands out as one of the most-watched and highly-regarded series. Adapted from its namesake comic books, this gritty portrayal of the superhero genre has garnered significant attention on Amazon Prime and consistently pushes the envelope in terms of what can be depicted on television

Following four triumphant seasons and a follow-up series, the creators are now developing the fifth and concluding installment of the popular show. Hints about an extraordinary finale have been subtly dropped, and considering how the fourth season ended, it’s not hard to be convinced by their promises

Indeed, it’s these characters that are at the heart of the matter, as fans are eagerly anticipating the fate of their beloved series characters, including those they aren’t so fond of. As for Sister Sage, it’s hard to say where she fits in, but we do have Susan Heyward’s insights on how her character might unfold in the final season. Sister Sage is portrayed by Susan Heyward in both Gen V and The Boys

Concerning Sister Sage, it’s common knowledge that she orchestrated many of the occurrences in Season 4, which eventually led Homelander to join the U.S. Army. Despite appearing to have a rift with him afterward, her return has left some questioning if Sister Sage left anything up to fate – could it be that all these events were strategically planned as part of a larger scheme on her part?

The interviewer from Variety posed a similar question to Susan Heyward when he enquired about Sage’s strategy for the last season – essentially wondering if what had unfolded thus far was purely unscripted, or if Sage had been strategizing all along and intends to deliver something even more grand in the final installment

At the conclusion of the final episode, Sage reappears before Homelander following his dismissal and abandonment of her scheme, merely to inform him that everything unfolded precisely as she had intended. Now, she’s hinting at “Phase 2” – a move that could potentially aid Homelander more or might be part of a broader strategy she is playing

SUSAN HEYWARD: I believe she thrives in the world by juggling multiple chess matches simultaneously and anticipating various scenarios. This way, she’s constantly adapting to the present while readying herself for several alternatives. It’s quite engaging to maintain curiosity about what these potential outcomes might be. She draws strength from others’ ambiguity
