AceShowbiz - The fifth season of The Boys is currently airing, and viewers are once again captivated by the performance of Jack Quaid as Huey. The series continues to draw impressive ratings, showcasing Quaid’s strong presence on television. However, while many fans celebrate his TV work, Quaid’s film career has quietly expanded with notable roles in hits like Scream, Novocaine, and a brief yet memorable part in Oppenheimer.

Despite the attention those films have garnered, one of Quaid’s most remarkable performances remains underappreciated since its release. The 2025 sci-fi thriller titled Companion features Quaid in what could be considered his darkest role to date, acting opposite Sophie Thatcher.

The movie opens with Quaid’s character’s girlfriend recalling the moment they first met at a grocery store, a seemingly sweet encounter that sparks their romance. However, her voiceover quickly reveals a haunting confession: the two happiest days of her life were the day she met him and the day she killed him. From this dramatic premise, the story shifts to the couple appearing deeply in love as they travel to a remote lake house with friends.

Companion is the feature directorial debut of Drew Hancock. The film has recently experienced a resurgence in popularity, especially among The Boys fans who seem to be discovering it for the first time. This renewed interest is reflected in streaming statistics, with Companion ranking as the #10 most popular movie on HBO Max within the United States.

Moreover, the film is also trending on Netflix’s Top 10 charts in several countries, indicating that its popularity is not limited to a single streaming platform.
