The Boys star Aya Cash is teasing that upcoming spin-off show Vought Rising could be something rather special – so much so that she’s worried it won’t live up to her high expectations.

Whilst Cash awaits filming to begin on the series, she’s currently promoting her new showThe Franchise, the latest project from The Thick Of It creator Armando Iannucci, who is on board as executive producer here. Depicting a behind-the-scenes look at the filming of the latest movie in a large superhero franchise, Cash plays producer Anita in the satirical comedy.

Of course, this is therefore the second project the actor has been involved in that parodies the worlds of Marvel and DC. But as she emphasizes to us, The Franchise has a very different tone to The Boys. Cash concludes: “Well, it’s nice not to be playing a Nazi! Anita has flaws but she’s nowhere near Stormfront. This is a lot lighter touch and more humor based, and a lot less blood.”

The Franchise premieres today on Sky and NOW in the UK with its first three episodes. You can watch it weekly in the US via HBO and Max.
