The season 4 finale of The Boys is now available to stream on Prime Video, but fans will notice that there has been a title change, following the assassination attempt against former US president Donald Trump last week.
Former president Trump, who is also the Republican candidate at this year's presidential election, was shot at by a gunman during a rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday 13th July, sustaining an injury to his ear.
The Boys season finale was originally set to be called Assassination Run, but has since been retitled as Season Four Finale. A trigger warning has also been placed at the start of the episode, warning that "viewer discretion" is advised.
Prime Video also released a statement on Instagram, saying: "The season finale of The Boys contains scenes of fictional political violence, which some viewers may find disturbing, especially in light of the injuries and tragic loss of life sustained during the assassination attempt on former President Trump.
"The Boys is a fictitious series that was filmed in 2023, and any scene or plotline similarities to these real-world events are coincidental and unintentional. Amazon, Sony Pictures Television and the producers of The Boys reject, in the strongest terms, real-world violence of any kind."

The episode marks the end of the adult superhero show's penultimate season, with season 5 confirmed to be its last.
Speaking exclusively with RadioTimes.com, Black Noir star Nathan Mitchell recently gave his own thoughts on the show coming to an end, saying: "We always knew it was the rough plan, but I think he confirmed it with us probably earlier this year.
"And on one level, it's sad, because I love the show, I love everybody on the show, so happy that they’re in my life. On another level, we'll have the opportunity to continue being in each other's life, but just not in the same way.
"You always want to go out on as high of a note as possible. You want to tell the story you want to tell on your terms, and I think that's what we're doing by deciding to end it at five seasons."
