The Boys showrunner breaks down season 5’s first major death

In the premiere of the fifth and final season of The Boys, Billy Butcher (Karl Urban) recruits the Worm (Ely Henry), a supe with earthworm-like tunneling powers, to help orchestrate a prison break. But beyond eating dirt and then explosively shooting it out of his butt, the Worm is also a former Vought Studios TV writer (he was replaced with AI) who opines about the challenge of writing a series finale that will make everyone happy.
