The Boys Season 4 Episode 8, or Season Finale gave us a better look at the previously seen Shapeshifter in Episode 7. In the previous episode, we got to see that the Shapeshifter had taken the form of Annie and was planning to kill Robert Singer so the blame goes to Annie. However, in this episode, we got to see that Shapeshifter not only has the power to take the form of anyone she wants but something else as well, and in this article, find out what that power is.
Shapeshifter Has the Power of Reading Minds as Well
In The Boys Episode 7, it was revealed that Shapeshifter has to touch the person she wants to turn into and then quite literally rip her skin off like a cocoon to be reborn in the shape of the person she touched. The Boys Season 4 Episode 8 confirmed that she is also a mind reader. She can read the minds of anyone she touches and learn their memories. She told Annie about this power when she came back to “Recharge” her form.
Naomi Frenette Plays the Shapeshifting Supe in The Boys
Even though we were not given the exact name of the Supe we do know who plays her. The role of this mysterious supe is played by Naomi Frenette who has been a stuntwoman for numerous superhero projects like X-Men: Apocalypse and X-Men: Days of Future Past. This is probably the first time she is performing on screen as a main character so let’s see how big of a role she is going to play in The Boys.
