Is That Really Erin Moriarty Naked in ‘The Boys’ Season 4? Unraveling the Mystery

The current season of “The Boys,” which premiered on June 13, 2024, has been a rollercoaster of emotions and controversy, remaining popular despite some backlash over its political themes. Among the buzz, a particular scene from Episode 7 has sparked questions. It features Starlight, or at least someone who looks like her, in a revealing scene. We’re digging into whether that was Erin Moriarty herself or a body double.

The controversial scene doesn’t show full nudity but includes a rear view of Starlight. This moment led to a flurry of speculation. The character in question isn’t actually Starlight but a shapeshifter who has been a pivotal part of recent episodes. This shapeshifter has been seen as different characters, but the intrigue peaked when it mimicked Starlight.

Erin Moriarty did portray this shapeshifter during an intimate moment with another character, Hughie. After much confusion and speculation, it appears that it was indeed Moriarty in that scene, not a body double. This was Moriarty’s portrayal of the shapeshifter pretending to be Starlight, adding a layer of complexity to her performance.

The director, Catriona McKenzie, shared some insights with ScreenRant, noting Moriarty’s ability to adjust her physicality and bring a certain stillness to her role—qualities that the real Annie, also known as Starlight, doesn’t possess. McKenzie praised the subtlety and detail in Moriarty’s performance, particularly in how she moves and interacts in the scenes.

So, if you’re trying to figure out whether you’re watching the real Starlight or her eerie doppelganger, pay close attention to her behavior. The shapeshifter lacks the emotional depth of Annie and displays more mechanical movements. It’s these little details that can clue you in.
