The penultimate episode of the Prime Video superhero show's fourth season saw a deadly plot taking shape, as Homelander looked to consolidate his power – however, will he be able to pull off his plans without the help of Sister Sage and her expert strategising?

We expect to find out sooner than later, in what is sure to be a blockbuster finale.

Going forward, Black Noir star Nathan Mitchell has said he wants the series to "go out on as high of a note as possible", while Mother's Milk star Laz Alonso has pitched a movie to round up the show's story – even if he has admitted this seems unlikely to happen.
