The Season 4 finale, originally titled "Assassination Run," was written more than a year ago and filmed in 2023. But since it was released Thursday, five after the attempt on former President Donald Trump's life, the episode has been retitled to simply "Season Four Finale" with a "viewer discretion advised” warning at the beginning. “This episode contains scenes of fictional political violence. Any similarities to recent events are completely coincidental and unintentional,” reads the warning. In a statement, Amazon Prime Video said: "The season finale of The Boys (https://screenrant.com/tag/the-boys/) contains scenes of fictional political violence, which some viewers may find disturbing, especially in light of the injuries and tragic loss of life sustained during the assassination attempt on former President Trump. The Boys (https://www.cbr.com/tag/the-boys-tv/) is a fictitious series that was filmed in 2023, and any scene or plotline similarities to these real-world events are coincidental and unintentional. Amazon, Sony Pictures Television and the producers of The Boys (https://collider.com/tag/the-boys/) reject, in the strongest terms, real-world violence of any kind."
