Amazon’s The Boys trolls Disney+ Day

I’m pretty sure we were all hyped for Disney+ Day and while it may be up for debate if the day lived up to our lofty expectations, I’m grateful that the folks over at Amazon decided to have a little fun at Disney’s expense via their hit series, The Boys.

Vought International, which is an American multi-billion dollar conglomerative led by CEO Stan Edgar and previously managed by Madelyn Stillwell, former Vice President and is a company that is famous for the founding of The Seven and managing the global population of licensed Supes, sent out a Twitter post to celebrate Vought Day, which was obviously a playful dig at Disney+ Day. All of it was all good fun and is pretty much in line with the humor from The Boys if you’re a fan of the series.

On The Boys, a present-day world is imagined where superheroes, controlled by the unscrupulous Vought corporation, purport to stand for “truth and justice” while secretly committing heinous acts. During season two, Hughie (Jack Quaid), Mother’s Milk (Laz Alonso), Frenchie (Tomer Capon), and Kimiko (Karen Fukuhara) were on the run from the law, hunted by the Supes, and desperately trying to regroup and fight back against Vought. The Supes of The Seven also includes Queen Maeve (Dominique McElligott), A-Train (Jessie T. Usher), The Deep (Chace Crawford), and Black Noir (Nathan Mitchell), while Karl Urban plays Butcher. The series also stars Erin Moriarty, Antony Starr, and Aya Cash.
