Actor Karl Urban feels his superhero satire series, The Boys, holds a mirror to realities of the current society, and says the web show makes poignant social commentary. "According to me, the show makes very poignant social commentary, from corporate greed to the manipulation of the media to the corrupt nature of some celebrities," Urban told IANS in an interview.

"It also explores contemporary issues like Black Lives Matter and racism. It seems to me (that it is) a very timely reminder of the dangers of Right wing ideology, especially now at a time where Right wing ideology seems to be growing, and that's got to be a major concern," he added.
