Prime Video has renewed the violent superhero series “The Boys” for a fifth season, ahead of season four’s premiere this week. Showrunner Eric Kripke has revealed on social media today that season five will be the series’ last.
“Season 4 premiere week is a good time to announce: Season 5 will be the final season!” Kripke wrote on X. “Always my plan, I just had to be cagey till I got the final OK from Vought. Thrilled to bring the story to a gory, epic, moist climax.”
The Emmy-nominated global hit series returns on June 13, 2024.
In season four, “The world is on the brink. Victoria Neuman is closer than ever to the Oval Office and under the muscly thumb of Homelander, who is consolidating his power. Butcher, with only months to live, has lost Becca’s son as well as his job as The Boys’ leader. The rest of the team are fed up with his lies. With the stakes higher than ever, they have to find a way to work together and save the world before it’s too late.”
The series hails from a team including Eric Kripke, Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg.
Season four stars Karl Urban, Jack Quaid, Antony Starr, Erin Moriarty, Jessie T. Usher, Laz Alonso, Chace Crawford, Tomer Capone, Karen Fukuhara, Colby Minifie, Claudia Doumit, and Cameron Crovetti, and welcomes Susan Heyward, Valorie Curry, and Jeffrey Dean Morgan to the series.
