The Boys: What we know about season 5
This will be the last season. And it won’t be released right away.
This time, America has flipped. Season 4 of The Boys has reached a new milestone and the finale has just put Homelander in power. What will happen after that? Season 5 of The Boys is already on its way.
When will season 5 of The Boys ?
The showrunner Eric Kripke confirmed in Variety that he is currently writing it. And filming will begin this fall: “It’s not completely set yet, but we’ll start filming around mid-November.“As for the broadcast date, he does not want to say: “I don’t know yet when season 5 will air, but we will be filming until mid-2025“. Which means, six more months for post-production and promotion. So a release in 2026 on Prime Video.
Why season 5 of The Boys will be the last season?
Eric Kripke tells Variety that he has known for a long time that “the beginning of writing season 3, so for a few years now“, that the series will end after 5 seasons.”It took a little while for Amazon to accept it. And I’m glad to be able to announce it now, because it was a little frustrating to always say that the series will last forever!” Above all, the creator wants the audience to see Season 4 for what it is in the grand tapestry of The Boys : “It puts Season 4 in the right context. You have to think of it as a three-act movie, and here we are at the end of Act 2, the low point before we go back up to the climax. I want people to understand how Season 4 fits into the bigger picture.”
How many episodes of The Boys do they stay?
Season 5 will consist of 8 episodes. So there are only 8 hours left for the final act of The Boys.
What will the season 5 finale be about? The Boys ?
After Sage’s successful three-cushion hit, Homelander finds himself in the White House! As revealed by the production of The Boys With this unequivocal Instagram post, posted in the wake of the finale’s broadcast (above), the mighty Supe is about to take political control of the country. But even that shouldn’t satisfy him: “We ask the question all the time: what is his ultimate goal? In reality, he doesn’t have one. There is no satisfying end to what he does, because that’s not what’s going to make him happy.” confided to us Eric Kripke recently. “He wanted to take over Vought and it didn’t make him happy. He takes political power and it won’t make him happier. And then he’ll move on etc… Because this character is a bottomless pit. He’s a black hole of sadness. Nothing will make him happy” The question remains how to stop it.
Maybe Soldier Boy, who makes a cryogenic comeback in the post-credits scene, can lend a hand. Maybe also with this return of Jensen Acklesthe creator Eric Kripke will be able to hold his meeting supernatural long awaited, by signing Jared Padalecki before the end : “We’ve been messaging each other (for him to come). I think it would be a real bummer not to have Jared on the show in some capacity at some point.”he said recently. The surprise guest of season 5?
