The Electrifying Revelation of Marie's Shocking Alliance with the Butcher's Crew in The Boys Season 4

Warning: Spoilers for Gen V.

Summary

Marie Moreau's exceptional ability to manipulate blood makes her an ideal candidate for recruitment into Butcher's team for The Boys season 4. The Boys are likely familiar with Marie's powers as her profile was included in the files that Hughie stole from the Red River Institute.

Marie's future with The Boys appears promising following her time on Gen V due to her extensive knowledge of Vought's hidden truths and her possible ability to eliminate Homelander.

According to a popular Gen V theory, it is strongly believed that Marie will align herself with Butcher's team in the upcoming fourth season of The Boys. A central character in the spinoff series, Marie Moreau (portrayed by Jaz Sinclair), possesses extraordinary powers as a hemokinetic Super. With the ability to manipulate blood, Marie becomes mistakenly linked to the murder of Golden Boy (played by Patrick Schwarzenegger), which ultimately leads her to be recognized as one of Godolkin University's elite Top 5 Students. Despite her painful past, Marie is one of the few Supes within Gen V who appears to be genuinely dedicated to fighting crime.

Hughie & The Boys Should Know About Marie Already

Gen V's storyline in The Boys season 1 mirrors Starlight, Hughie, and the other anti-Vought members in Billy Butcher's crew. The young Supe, Marie, bears a strong resemblance to Starlight and has even had some enjoyable cameos that connect to the larger franchise. With the potential for an intriguing crossover, it seems highly likely that Marie will eventually encounter The Boys' vigilante group in season 4. Interestingly, both shows have already hinted at an imminent collision between Marie and Butcher's crew.

By focusing on Marie Moreau, Gen V reveals a clever hidden reference to The Boys, suggesting that Butcher's team should already be familiar with the teenage Super. In season 3, Hughie acquires the complete file system of the Red River Institute. It is revealed that the Institute is a group home for orphaned Super children owned by Vought as a subsidiary. Since Hughie's USB drive contains files on every Super at Red River, the team should already be well aware of Gen V's leading figure. In fact, sharp-eyed viewers have noticed that Marie's profile and picture are actually shown on-screen as Hughie browses through the files, leaving no doubt about the connection.

Even if Hughie and the Boys didn't pay much attention to Marie's profile—or if they somehow missed just how incredibly useful her hemokinetic powers would be in a fight against Homelander and Vought—Gen V is set to rectify that oversight. In the spinoff series, Marie gains immediate attention for allegedly killing the university's prodigy, the aptly named Golden Boy. As she delves deeper into Vought's secretive "Woods" project and the other conspiracies surrounding Godolkin, there's a strong likelihood that she'll catch the Boys' attention.

Gen V Has Confirmed Marie Is One Of The World's Most Powerful Supes

Marie Moreau possesses extraordinary blood-based abilities in Gen V, making her one of the most formidable individuals in The Boys' universe. Aside from her frequent utilization of her powers for creating projectiles or whips, Marie has also demonstrated the capability to manipulate the blood within another person's body. With her Supe-powers, Marie emerges as the ideal choice for combating individuals with invulnerability, such as Homelander. Consequently, it is only logical for the Boys to peruse the Red River files in search of potential Homelander-killing candidates.

Joining The Boys Could Be Marie Moreau's Perfect Future After Gen V

Marie, in most instances, has predominantly exhibited her blood manipulation abilities by utilizing blood that is external to her own or others' bodies. Upon discovering her powers during an intermediate phase, she typically incises her palm to extract blood from herself. On occasion, she also possesses the capability to govern the blood emanating from another individual's wound or laceration. However, a pivotal occurrence unfolds in episode 4 of Gen V, shedding light on a new facet of Marie's capabilities. It reveals her proficiency in manipulating the blood within someone else's body and subsequently causing a targeted "explosion" within a specific region. Consequently, it is conceivable that Marie may possess the capacity to manipulate the blood within Homelander's body, rendering her one of the select Supes capable of terminating the all-powerful leader of The Seven.

If Hughie and the Boys are already aware of Marie's exceptional and exceptional powers, they may already be on the lookout for her. The plot of The Boys season 4 and how the finale of Gen V will impact its parent series are still shrouded in mystery. While Marie may choose to stay at Godolkin or establish her own vigilante group alongside her formidable Gen V Supe classmates, it's evident that she has no future with Vought. She has caused significant trouble and possesses extensive knowledge about the company's nefarious workings, making it impossible for her to be easily manipulated into becoming a compliant member of The Seven.

Marie Moreau's The Boys Connection Might Explain Her "Benefactor"

It's possible that Marie Moreau might align herself with the Boys following her time on Gen V. In the event that Hughie and his companions take notice of her Red River profile, it's even conceivable that a member of the Boys will appear towards the end of Gen V with the intention of recruiting Marie. However, the Boys will face numerous challenges in the upcoming season. Primarily, it is now time to resent Billy Butcher due to his self-centered actions and unstable use of Temp-V, which is undermining the camaraderie among the Boys. Fortunately, Grace Mallory (Laila Robins), the founder of the Boys, appears to have come out of retirement, indicating that Marie may potentially become a part of The Boys' version of Amanda Waller.

In episode 5 of Generation V, Shetty, the villainous dean of Godolkin University, informs Dr. Cardosa that Marie has a secretive and influential "benefactor," rendering her untouchable for any Super experimentation. The mysterious benefactor of Marie in The Boys could potentially be one of several characters. It could be Vought's newly appointed CEO Ashley Barrett, former CEO Stan Edgar, or even presidential candidate Robert Singer. Alternatively, Dean Shetty herself could be the enigmatic benefactor. While it is most likely that the benefactor originates from Vought or the White House, there is also the chance that Starlight or Mallory might be vying for Marie's allegiance.

Hughie's Red River Files Can Bring Marie Into The Boys Season 4

Marie's appearance on the screen during Hughie's exploration of the Red River Institute's database was a subtle nod for devoted fans. This moment not only set up Gen V's upcoming release but also hinted at the carefully planned storyline that The Boys is known for. While there have been numerous cameos and references to the parent series, Gen V remains largely independent. If The Boys season 4 aims to incorporate Marie from Gen V, the stolen Red River Institute files provide a clear indication.
