Why Stormfront From The Boys Looks So Familiar

In case you hadn't heard, The Boys is finally back on Amazon Prime Video.

That's right, the hotly anticipated second season of Amazon's hyper-violent, giddily nihilistic anti-superhero dramedy is officially underway - rolling out episodes weekly after premiering the first three episodes on September 4th. That means The Boys fans are finally getting a look at what's become of the show's ragtag cast in the wake of that bruising season 1 finale. Season 1 of the satirical series ran in 2019, and proceeded to push the boundaries of abusive language, graphic violence, and shocking twists in ways no one could've anticipated. Season 2 promises more of the same, though it's also set to drop a few new faces into the action one of which will be an electrokinetic super by the name of Stormfront.

Yes, there's a pretty good chance the actor portraying Stormfront will look a bit familiar to you. Her name is Aya Cash, and she's been a legit rising star in film and television over the past decade.

If Aya Cash does look familiar to you, it's likely because you're a fan of FX's anti-romantic dramedy You're the Worst. That series premiered on the cable network back in 2014 and proceeded to air for five seasons on FX. Over that period, You're the Worst became a bit of a cult hit for FX, serving as a hilarious, heartbreaking, and often all-too real exploration of the pitfalls of relationships in the modern age.

"Whether in a week or 20 years, there is horrible sadness and pain coming, and we're inviting it." "God, I love the way you think."

Aya Cash was at the center of the action for most of the 62 episodes of You're the Worst, appearing as Gretchen, a self-obsessed music publicist, and one half of the couple at the heart of the series. Gretchen meets her romantic counterpart, the equally self-obsessed writer Jimmy played by Chris Geere in You're the Worst's pilot episode after he'd been kicked out of his exes wedding reception for causing a scene. Anyway, Gretchen and Jimmy hit it off in the parking lot, and the series charts the dramatic highs and punishing lows of their relationship moving forward.

Along the way Aya Cash more than delivered the comedic and dramatic goods as Gretchen, crafting a character as casually manipulative and preposterously self-serving as she is unexpectedly nurturing and tragically insecure. In doing so, she also crafted one of the more memorable characters in modern television one that rightfully served as Aya Cash's breakout role to boot. Keep watching the video to see why Stormfront from The Boys looks so familiar.
