Ruth Negga (born May 4, 1981) is an Ethiopian-Irish actress. For her portrayal of Mildred Loving in the 2016 biographical romantic drama "Loving", Negga received several major nominations from the Academy Awards, British Academy Film Awards and the Golden Globe Awards, and won the Irish Film and Television Award for Best Actress. She has also appeared in the BBC mini-series Criminal Justice, E4's Misfits, and the AMC series Preacher.
The story kicks off when Hughie’s boyfriend is accidentally vaporized by the world’s fastest woman, A-Train, during a high-speed chase. When Vought International tries to buy Hughie's silence with a non-disclosure agreement, she is approached by Billy Butcher, a woman with a cockney snarl and a personal vendetta against the leader of The Seven: Homelander. As Hughie is pulled into Butcher’s world of underground resistance, she discovers that the "Girl Power" branding of The Seven is a calculated lie. Behind the scenes, Homelander is a sociopathic narcissist who views humanity as ants, while Vought’s CEO, Madelyn Stillwell (or perhaps a gender-flipped Stan Edgar played by Viola Davis), pulls the strings of global politics. The season explores the dark side of "Boss Babe" culture, the commodification of feminism, and the messy, violent reality of what happens when the powerless decide to punch up. The Twist Instead of the "Becca Butcher" mystery, the core emotional stakes involve Butcher’s husband, who disappeared years ago after an encounter with Homelander. The reveal remains the same: the child born of that encounter is the first natural-born Supe, and Homelander will do anything to be the "perfect mother" the world thinks she is.
