The Boys fans react to Season 4’s surprising Twilight montage

Fans of The Boys have already started to eagerly analyze every moment of Season 4, with some becoming fixated on a Twilight-inspired montage featuring Homelander.

The initial three installments of The Boys Season 4 have been notable for their unforgettable scenes, including a reference to the Human Centipede and what has been the most repulsive moment thus far.

Nevertheless, there is a specific sequence that has garnered a dedicated fanbase, as it satirizes a highly memorable scene from the Twilight films.

The clip from Episode 1, posted by a fan, shows Homelander sitting in the same position as the environment changes around him. This is a clever tribute to the bedroom chair scene in Twilight: New Moon.

Some viewers quickly showed their appreciation for the nod to the YA series, with one fan exclaiming, “Bro is so funny,”and another adding, “Homelander Swan.”

One dedicated fan even took the time to modify the clip to match the color grading and on-screen text used in the New Moon scene, and added the song ‘Possibility’ by Lykke Li, which was featured in the original movie.

The depiction of Bella sitting in her bedroom for months in the Twilight Saga is widely considered one of the most memorable moments, and it resonated deeply with viewers due to its portrayal of depression.

By placing Homelander in a similar situation, the show subtly highlights the fragility of his current mental state. This is particularly evident after the previous scene, which depicted Homelander having a nightmare and reliving some of his darkest memories.

The show’s portrayal of Homelander, the strongest superhero on Earth, grappling with a feeling of overwhelming defeat, may serve as a means to add depth to his character.

Although the series has made it apparent that Homelander should not be seen as a hero in any way, it is crucial to emphasize that he still possesses some human qualities, even if they are deeply buried within him.
