The way Valorie Curry wants her characters story to end on The Boys is probably not what you expected.

In a new interview with The Hollywood Reporter at San Diego Comic-Con over the weekend, the actor revealed she doesnt want her awful character, Misty Tucker Gray, better known as Firecracker, to survive the shows fifth and final season.

Firecracker joined The Boys in Season 4, becoming a part of The Seven superhero group after rising to fame by spewing out controversial conspiracy theories on her ultra-conservative platform.

I hope she dies. She has it coming from many people. Shes awful. Shes horrible. I hope she dies. I hope its not because of the meds, because that seems too easy, Curry said of her character, adding that it should be Sister Sage, another member of The Seven played by Susan Heyward, who gets to take Firecracker out.

It should be Sage, right? It should be Sage, and then she should survive and have a spinoff, she said.

Firecracker is an anti-LGBTQ character in the superhero satire series. Curry, who identifies as a lesbian, previously spoke with THR about why she wasnt turned off by playing the bigoted character.

It sounds so gross to say, but I really connected with her right off the bat, she said.

The Tick star went on to say that playing someone so vocally anti-trans and homophobic is like poetic justice because it should be somebody from the [LGBTQ] community whos getting to make a clown out of her. So there isnt any ambiguity.
